Interesting developments with the Sporting Lisbon situation. If we could get a player out of there for free Levy will be all over it.

Re Martins and the other Sporting players - I'm sure the player being on a free transfer would make prior experiences null and void, although dealing with Mendes might be an issue. Regardless it all sounds too straightforward, there is probably more to this contract standoff from a legal standpoint than is currently being let on.

Edit: Seems the big 3 leaving are not directly with Gestifute/Mendes but wouldn't surprise me if he got involved.

Aliz is right about Bale. But I give chances less than 1%, to his 10%. His contract with RM is not that simple. Do not want to get into the details.
Gelsen Martens’ agents and more are trying to offer him to us. We have not bitten after past experiences. Things can change however, but haven’t heard that change as of yet.

Thanks for keeping me level :)

It’s got legal fees and protracted court dates all over it

This. That and Mendes hovering about the place. Big signing on fees etc. Wouldn't surprise me if Levy steered well clear of it.

I don't think he would be involved in a Martins deal, would he? Transfermarkt has someone else as his agent.

Just been offered a season ticket and now hear about Bale. If Bale signs between now and Thursday 5pm then I will get a season ticket.

With bale i think we'll have to see what comes out of the psg ffp and neymar situation before even bothering to get our hopes up.

ali z: RE Bale could still happen, a lot depends on next RM manager and Ronaldo, fee would not be anywhere near the £200m reported in fact less than half, Bale would I am led to believe accept similar wages to Kane, he wants to be happy and be playing, if you ask me we have 10% chance, my info says higher but i refuse to believe it really could happen.

ali z: Hate saying this as we have been led down this path before but financially we are playing a different game, we will spend net substantially , yes we will lose some players we might rather keep but our incomings should be of the same or higher quality. Plan is for it to be more phased and little done at the last minute but we been here before like we both say.
I can only get so hard

Edmonton on COYS

Another poster: "Is Bale even half realistic?"

Edmonton: "Maybe"

Edmonton up there with JJ as the top ITKs for me.
Oh, Jesus, this is going to be a long window

Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul,
And sings the tune without the words,
And never stops at all
