I am way more for this if it's say an 18 month loan. Big concern with Bale is his injuries and well his age and we'd likely have him here whilst he's still at his peak.

In the Amazon doc I really hope there’s a scene of Levy negotiating this deal, sat across the desk from Perez, earnestly sliding coins over one-by-one. Then the Ryan Air flight back where he gets annoyed because he didn’t book Priority & has to put his hand luggage in the hold.

I’m going through a Rolling Stones ‘Miss You/ Emotional Rescue’ period of experimentation and change.

If we loaned him and paid 100% of his wages would we really be smashing our wage structure? It's his Madrid contract after all. He's gonna be making more than all of our players regardless of who foots the bill.
The question is can we afford to chuck a load of money into a short term deal with no resale? I'd say with our rapid increases in turnover it may be the best time for an opportunity like this.

In the space of a couple of pages we've had a pair of complete idiots guessing at an ITK's sources and another asking questions. Anyone else want to take the piss and resign from the ITK section?
If Madrid want him out then it’s far better for them to be paying say 50% of his wages than all of it for him to sit on the bench or be out of the squad. So not sure it’s not doable.

I’m assuming we would still be pursuing a number 9? And quite likely another loan.
So just how many players on loan are we allowed?
At this rate our whole squad will be rented.

Actually the more I think about this, its actually not a bad idea.
We cannot afford to buy him and RM want him off their books, so we loan him for a long loan, say 2/3 years and RM pay a small amount of his wages (if that's possible, dunno) then hand him back when he is past his use by date.
Win win, and probabaly the only way he will return to White Hart Lane

Does anyone really think this is going to happen?

We've only got two choices. One choice is a lot more fun than the other. If Trix says it's even vaguely possible, I'm gonna choose to believe it will happen. Welcome home, Bale. Now sort that bun out, son.
