Bit of a stretch, it wasn't even a shot - it was a cross that was headed in by a Ukrainian for an own goal.

Weren’t we linked to Johnson before? Looks decent - another one from Notts Forest.

They’ve done it!

Six minutes of added time in a half consisting of 0 goals, 0 injuries, and a few subs, is a fucking joke.

As a Welshman, the pride and belief this man exudes and inspires is something else when he pulls on that red shirt. And by the same token makes me sad that so many England fans don’t let themselves experience that with Kane. Will never see his like again.

You can't help think that a decent pre-season and managed game time that he can do a job at a good level.

Too good for the championship for sure

I just can't see him risking going to a league where he'll get lumps kicked out of him every game - especially with the WC in the winter coming up.

Now it gets interesting.

Could end up at Cardiff, but if he’s preparing for a World Cup you’ve got to think somewhere like Spurs or United would appeal a lot more.

Our social media team are full of smart trollers. Even if Bale isn't coming back, they knew just the image will get the attention up.
yea - Also, wherever he plays, he'll always be 'one of ours', they'd do the same regardless.

Not sure if anyone can remember but I posted in here around a year ago that I had some sensitive Bale info. The guy told me about Bale wanting to retire but he obviously jumped the gun slightly. Now obviously Bale has again confirmed that he will now play on a little while longer (I imagine until January) but then he will retire. This wasn't my usual source, it was from a golfing circle who said Bale wanted to try and turn pro. No idea how that's going but he was serious about it. Anyway, I imagine he will sign a 6 month contract somewhere and then call it a day after the World Cup.
