Theres no way we can sell bale at this late in the window
I think you're right. The only time I was ok with him leaving was when we thought we had willian and lamela lined up. I can't see how we benefit now. The way this has drsgged out I'm expecting it to pan out as a disaster for us

"The way this has drsgged out I'm expecting it to pan out as a disaster for us"


This, based on previous experience is EXACTLY how I feel about it now.

This is the BEN info:

Bale was just outside my house spoke to him

Was far from unhappy said seeing how plays out said loves spurs but sometimes opportunities only come up once

Was cutting through Repton park had no option to speak to me as I blocked him in at avenue gate

Was very friendly in a way feel for him in terms of waiting

Isn't Repton park were all the trash from 'stenders live?

And while we're on 'Stenders, how come they're all Spammers?

I'm worried now as well.

Last week I was fine, like you, the prospect of Willian and Lamela coming in for Bale was really settling in....in fact I was liking it big time.

Alas no Willian. I'm nervous now as the closer this gets to deadline day, the more scope for it all going Pete Tong. And we've been down this road before. Not enough time etc....

"Ben gets ready to climb his usual cullen tree when he finds a weird looking device. He fiddles around with the item that has got a familiar shape, it's like a force is driving him to polish it by gently stroking away the dust.

A buzzing sound breaks the early morning silence and a blueish light shines from the familiar shaped device. From the buzzing device a holographic beam shoots out.

A tiny, tiny man appears in a white dress, badly covering his bald head with an oddly looking brown wig made of italian pubic hair.

'The evil empire is trying to take the one who the force is strong with away from us. Help us Obi-Ben-Kenobi, you are our only hope'

The hologram fades away as the device with a buzzing farewell disappears into the darkness of the tree."

The rest of the story has now broken as ITK and can be found in the RO.

I'm worried that if we keep Bale and get Lamela, Townsend will split. Of course, it's a better situation anyway, but I really don't wanna see that kid go. He's shown the skillset and determination to suggest he's Spurs quality.

Ah new guy.......you have no idea how bad it's going to get about six days from now. I envy your youthful naivety. But just to give you an idea of how this is going to go down (if we use historical precedent as an indicator).......take your balls. Put them in a blender. Plug the blender in and quickly down 12 Red Bulls. Now super glue your finger to the "puree" button.

Ahhh you are giving the new guy the soft sell are you ...... Are you letting him work out by himself that you have missed out the whole marinating bit where you take the icing bag full of a mixture of chilli powder and brut aftershave and empty the whole lot up your piss hole.

This is giving me sleepless nights too...

If we are already bringing in replacements (Lamela etc) then there is no issue selling him this late.

All these rumors about United being in, or PSG being in etc sound like posturing from Levy to me.

Just a thought on this, I don't know where Bale lives, but I do know Repton Park is where spurs house a lot of younger players, or those new to the country, they own or have big rental agreements with more than a few properties in there (I know this 100% through work...and I guess this makes me ITK :)) but it is generally only until players find their own mansions up in Chuffley (or that way) I would have though Bale would have moved out of there by now?
Maybe he is still there? Sorry I know it's off the point, just thinking out loud!!

Hasn't there been a jink with the players that make the banner? Perhaps it's as easy as changing the photoshopped players we'll finalize some of these deals. Simples

In addition to this, not only am I worried we might sell Bale without adequately replacing him but we might find ourselves in a position where our rivals strengthen and we don't.

Expecting a departure or two from RM before the window closes and I do not want to see any of their players end up down the road!

I think we need some actual ITK, as much as it's nice to learn that Bale lives in Woodford Green. I'd actually like to know what the fuck is going on.
The thread is once again on the edge of a precipice, one false move and we'll descend into formations for Thursday night or how beautiful Natalie Sawyers boobs are (very).

I've checked COYS, it's a bit quiet but did hear that talkSPORT are reporting that after speaking to Barnett the Bale story is not true
