I'm not so sure. Don't forget, Levy is part scouse. After all, it's never his fault.
Ok, I can cope with you calling our dear leader a midgit fuckwit, but now you have gone too far.......

I´m pretty sure we´re not changing our name to Amazon Hotspur.I appreciate what you’re saying and I would love us to sign Bale. Sponsorship, investment, naming rights etc are all wonderful sources of additional income and can really push a club on to a whole new level. The key thing for me is Levy would be risking the financial stability of the club on ‘ifs’ and ‘potential’ future income. We’ve yet to secure naming rights for the club... what is an appropriate timescale for getting this sorted etc? As I said, as much as I would love us to sign Bale the pendulum in terms of risk against financial security is heavily in the high risk category. We need all of our stars to align for this to happen and based on the current climate that’s clutching at straws.
I don't think from our pov it's going to get any better than it is now. Big decision.
Nice to see you in this thread @mawspurs ...So many great bits of ITK at the moment, thanks to those providing it.
The thing with signing Bale apart from the financials is the message it screams to the rest of the PL about our ambitions as a club. It says we are no longer prepared to be a team that finishes second, we want more.
for that reason alone I’d love to see it happen.
i don’t know much about most of the strikers listed so can’t really comment except to say I hope we get one who Jose is happy with who can do the job we need him to do.
Think about it, JJ basically said we can have Bale if Levy pays the money! How do you feel now?
Bale certainly won't get any younger either.
That's where we have been going wrong, what we need to be doing is finding players that are getting younger.
Dragon:
Carlos Vinicius is definitely An option And we have an interest , due to Mendez involvement there is a high chance he ends up at us or wolves
if it’s wolves then more chance it releases Jimenez to us
whilst we are talking to 4 or 5 strikers now and Trying to get one in at no point has deeney or the Zambian boy been mentioned
my personal feeling is it will be the 22 year old I’ve mentioned many times or Vinicius , or if Vinicius goes wolves then will get Jimenez , I’d say josh king is 4th in line now
it’s always interesting to hear different ITK’s perspectives on different deals as there’s so many plates spinning at the moment.

No you're not! He won't be the player that left us that's for sure.I'm probably in a minority of 1 but I can't help thinking signing Bale has the potential to be a hugely expensive cock up. He's hardly kicked a ball in ages and I thought his recent outing for Wales was pretty rank.
It’s really tough to call, objectively speaking.I'm probably in a minority of 1 but I can't help thinking signing Bale has the potential to be a hugely expensive cock up. He's hardly kicked a ball in ages and I thought his recent outing for Wales was pretty rank.

Just a thought but with Mendes's involvement with the two players, it would make far more financial sense for him to try and get both Jimenez and Vinicius to move, which could really play in our favor?Dragon:

That is a healthy perspective. You might end up being the only sane person on here![/QUOTE]I agree, it's the main reason I prowl these threads. I'm more interested in hearing the nuances around deals than hyping myself up thinking we are signing someone, at least that's what I tell myself.
