Since we now know that Crouchy is at the stadium hoping to get an interview, that at least confirms that Bale must be there today rather than at Hotspur Way. Would be good if our 'reveal' interview with Bale involved him being led on a tour of the new stadium, visiting all the points where his photos etc are displayed.

Definitely wont be tomorrow. It’ll be overshadowed by our game and the NFL. Today or Monday.
Fuck me, what is it with this overshadowed bollocks. We can't announce today, it'll be overshadowed by Rotherham v Torquay. Monday you got Essex v Surrey in the 20/20 so that's out. So when? Tuesday is also out as it's the opening day of the Dartford & District Lurcher racing league, so again, when?

The number of things people have suggested this is being held up by gets longer and more embarrassing by the page.

Like the outgoing manager would say a deal as big as this is done before the clubs themselves? They have already given 11 to Asensio. They know it's done.
So why did he make the distinction between Bale and Reguilon then? I'm sure it's a small issue and a formality, but it's not done from what Zidane is saying. People just choosing not to believe him because they don't like it.

Announce before the Arse/Spam match so it keeps them talking on air. Their fans will love it :p

This thread should probably be locked until it’s announced. It’s just the same people going round in circles and making the same shit jokes over and over again.

Sounds from ZZ comments that there have been late-running negotiations. If Bale won’t play for a month, Levy will have shelled out £1.5m before he kicks a ball. I wonder if he’s trying to work that figure down; would be true to reputation.

I can’t believe I’ve just had a text from a friend who is really frightened this will fall apart. Jesus, it’s not like it matters if we announce now, or Monday or Wednesday between the two cup ties. The least important aspect is saying welcome. The only bit that matters is the sig on the paper and filing with the PL...

Wolves just announced a signing at half 2. Completely ignoring every metric of nonsense you lot have suggested we need to hit to get the most out of this announcement.

Zidane also just now quoted as saying “The situation is not firm, it is not done, I cannot say more. We have not had any problems and what he's done here, no-one can argue with. If he moves, I wish him the best.”


The quote states

‘Now he's making a change, all we can do is wish him the best... These things happen in football, but I've always said he was a spectacular player."

Think that’s the acknowledgement from Zidane of the deal

Blue and yellow to be announced at the same time I've heard.

Good night.
