One thing I’ve never understood, and I’m not trying to be rude to any particular posters here, is why we have to announce something in line with the USA being “awake” etc - as if in 3 hours time they won’t still find out, or someone won’t say “oh did you hear that Spurs signed Bale earlier” - America would never wait for the UK to wake up for “maximum media exposure.”

Clicks = dollars. They’re going to try to sell a ton of shit as soon as this announcement drops.

Appreciate that. I didn’t mean specifically right now, I mean in general.

I'm 100% calling that there will be a shot of Bale, Morgan and Reguilon all together, one in each kit, arms folded staring down the camera.

I get that, but people who want to buy the shirt will still buy the shirt.

By the way, the podcaster who tweeted about the medical has since deleted it.

EDIT: He deleted the first tweet where he claimed to be "trolling". and is now attempting to explain his way out of it to make it sound normal.

In his defence (well, not in his defence, but to explain what he meant), his first tweet (the one he deleted) was made a while ago and said something like "imagine if he fails his medical". Why he chose to reply to that with the implication that there were problems with the medical rather than start a new tweet thread is beyond me. Serious error of judgment.

Probably trying to work out why he couldn’t kick a ball straight.

That’s because they had to wait 7 hours for him to get his shoes on the right feet.

What a fucking nob thing to tweet

It's almost like he hasn't actually got a clue what's going on!
Surely everyone knew that part of the medical was done in Spain, with the final checks to be done here. I thought that was common knowledge, yet he's now using that as an excuse for some shit-for-brained tweet about failing the medical.
He's either a wum, or a fucking idiot.
