We’ve all developed Stockholm syndrome. It’s obvious we’d be better off away from this thread and even SC for a few hours but we feel emotionally handcuffed to it and are ill advisedly embracing our captivity.

Bale has failed the medical and Reguilon is refusing to sign now too in a take both of us or none of us situation

This is such a big signing, the exposure this is giving the club is immense. This is just today’s Guardian

The state of some fans here. The deal is done. Every ITK has said that, the reason no announcement just yet - we dont know, there could be any number of reasons why. People need to chill out.

Until the contract is signed nothing is done. If the medical highlighted an injury which could be a persistent issue for the season there is no way Levy will go through with it. Paying a player 200K+ a week with an injury that could be a persistent problem for the season.

You are right, we don't know. The ITK's have been wrong before. Don't know why fans who are concerned this is taking so long are being neg repped either. It's a genuine, reasoned concern.

Jesus Trix and Dragon both say it is done as of yesterday.... signed sealed etc but because there's no teary eyed video yet Bale must be a cripple and we are obviously only signing Reguilon to be Bales caddy so that's off too. The state of some of you during matches must be hilarious are you sure you are cut out to be spurs fans if you worry this much this club is not good for your mental health.

Has Reguilon failed his medical too as he hasnt been announced???? Stop panicking and just enjoy the occasion.

32 mins to go, timed for when everyone is submitting their fantasy football line ups ensuring phones in hand... a least no one has seen him leave.

I kinda love the fact we have all become so conditioned to things going tots up we are all inventing these worst case scenarios in our minds, obviously he’s not coming back until we hit 666 pages, after all it is the second coming and he is a beast.

If Bale really is injured and out for a month I’d not be surprised in the least if his £1m of wages we‘re paying in that time is being renegotiated over.
Ah, that’ll be why Levy left the training ground at 5pm smiling. Because of the renegotiating.
