Think you and others would maybe appreciate this gem,shows flashes of Bale at his best both here and at Real all them top moments the CL goal that west ham beauty.Imo the accompanying tunes are very appropriate highlights Bales got unfinished business atleast that's my thoughts when watching it.Figured timely reminder of whose coming home would be nice ?

Goosebumps watching it! So glad he’s coming home. It’s interesting remembering the struggles he had at the start of his Spurs career. I remember him not being on the winning side for ages and it seemed like he may be shipped out. Not much was expected of us back then so we gave him the time he needed to grow and become world class. I feel we as a club (fans) have become too quick to write players off nowadays And in danger of selling our possible ‘new Bale‘ too early.

I think it makes sense to announce tomorrow before the first game kicks off. Pregame shows break in with breaking news and than discuss the signing all day.

As for the injury, let’s not forget Real Madrid have made Bale out to be a poor trainer and injury prone the last couple years. No surprise they would be using their media mouth piece to try and further that negative reputation amongst their fan base after letting go such a massive player.

Maybe they needed it to be dark to shoot the unveiling video? Who knows. Maybe they are shooting it elsewhere. Maybe it’s going to be a bit more dramatic. Maybe it’s going to be a bit more special.

In any case, I don’t think it’s gonna be a quick tweet and that’s it.

If it is, I’ll be pretty savage.

The only way to watch it is by purchasing the Blue Ray off the Spurs website, that should pay off some of Bales wages

So... reading between the lines, this is what I think has happened...

1. Levy contacts Real and asks if Bale is available
2. Real says YES! Rather too enthusiastically.
3. Haggling ensures
4. Real agree but only if paid via cash or Western Union.
5. Contracts signed
6. Bale arrives and photographer asks him to do some keepy-uppies
7. Bale says "I can't, I injured my foot in my last match". Didn't anyone tell you?
8. Medical staff assess, give it at least 4 weeks.
9. Levy blows his stack and being cheated by Real into paying £1.2m before Bale can kick a ball
10. Real purge all references to Bale and change their phone numbers.
11. Levy engages lawyers
12. ???

What is it with tabloids and paparazzi? Celebs and athletes are people too. Leave them the fuck alone unless they want it. Awful professions.

I reckon as its the Jewish New Year old baldylocks is chilling at home with the family.

You might have hit the nail on its head.

Played against him for our village cricket team in Dorset back in the day - the return fixture in Caversham (Reading) I seem to remember.

Caversham! BBC radio fixture, where are you in Dorset as back in the day ITN were a nomad!

For those of you worrying about “snags” or other shite, Levy was pictured leaving Hotspur Way at 5pm-ish.

Do you think he would’ve left if there was an issue?

everything about Real Madrid, really. Franco's team. Most entitled set of fans in the history of sport. Ill admit its hard to not like that club at least a little because of their history of sustained brilliance, but everything else about them stinks.

Maybe he just didn’t want to risk pissing the wife off by being late for dinner?
