People waiting for paperwork and Medicals but we all know a deal is really sealed once the player thread reaches 300 pages. I can now relax as this is now officially a done deal. Well done SC.

This account should be banned from all transfer threads.

I'm talking about this full of shite Twitter account btw not the poster posting it here.

Fair, just thought I'd post it as it's the first person to claim Bale has completed a medical

I'm sick of all these golf puns!

This deal was always going to be rough, it's not easy to putt a deal like this together. On the hole, I'm sure all parties would like to get it done as soon as possible. We just need to iron out a few details and hopefully Levy can drive the deal forward. The only fairway to assess the deal will be once the details have been announced. Only then will we know if we have been shaft-ed. All parties seem keen to play ball which is positive and things are looking good but we aren't out of the woods yet.

I feel better now ;)

It will be done soon. Its just a bit of foreplay....

I think the most important quote is Barnet saying he is closer to leaving than he ever has been.

Just give it time boys. Half these guys on twitter are guessing or just posting to stay relevant.
Agree our own guys are probably farther ahead with knowledge than anyone. As always the press are usually a day behind.

Not so sure. If we were a long way off the noises coming out from all sides involved would be very different. even if RM are hoping for a big last minute offer letting people know we are close to a deal is the way to go. Neither of these deals have come out of nowhere so I am hopeful of a speedy solution. ZZ then gets money and squad places open to add players in the last couple of weeks.

Fucking hell, not only did a majority of you spitefully change your avatars to make it a very small amount less easy for me to effortlessly browse the content on SC, but now we're seeing people refer to avatars as an "avi" like that's some kind of valid abbreviation rather than an irritatingly incorrect term better used to refer to a now-redundant video file format. Who gives a shit about what happens with Gareth Bale when you guys are fucking up the important stuff? :mad:

Yeah but it's the whole goalposts moving thing which gets us like this. It's like getting to the half yard line on 2nd & goal and getting an offensive holding penalty moving you back 10 yards. Not the end of the world but could end poorly.

If RM are moving the goalposts maybe Bale can go on strike to get his dream move :cool:

The final solution sounds a bit...

Well... maybe I wouldn’t use it in a post about a player joining a club whose fans are known as yiddos, Fabrizio...

Does this Romano fella ever take a break? Step away from the keyboard for a bit, then you wouldn't have to make up so much bollocks to fill the empty spaces when nothing much has changed.

It’s Robert Forster - a brilliant actor, with more charisma in his elbow than in all of Juande Ramos, who sadly passed nearly a year ago. :)
Yes! "Black Hole" was a terrible but almost cult 80's movie he was in set in the future that I used to watch on repeat as a kid!
