Bale's going to happen. Levy just won't be able to resist, it's like a whole lifetime of hard bargaining has led up to this ultimate deal. 'Sold this guy for a world record fee, bought him back for nothing.'

He'll die happy.

If you think I am going to spend £120 or so on a new shirt with Bale on the back.

You would be absolutely correct.

People losing their shit over signing Joe Hart as a 3rd choice GK. Vorm played 1 game in the 5 months after he signed the second time in mid-Oct.

There are some bad melts in our fanbase these days.

I get it boys, this would be a BIG transfer coup. By all means let’s enjoy it. However (but, caution, maybe) transfers do not equal success. When Lloris lifts the FA cup with Kane and Bale on the scoresheet, then you can finish. Everything up until then is a long stroke.

hahaha more fame for Fattynomates

'It seems the screenshot may well have come from a member of Spurs forum Fighting Cock, with the charmingly named user 'Fattynomates' seemingly taking responsibility. '

I'd definitely take Wood, but I don't think we will get him.

Guilty! If you look at my first screen shot the booking bit says “me” next to bale , I just pre booked it with the names to get the screenshot , didn’t realise it went though! :mourfacepalm:

It's only on Sky Sports fucking News now.

On a more serious note. I think Fattynomates has proven through this act how scary the world is now. A stupid rumour like that can get picked up by social media and make national headlines without anyone even checking the credibility of it. The fact that there is a spelling mistake blatantly there should get alarm bells ringing.
Such is the power of social media these days. Extends beyond silly stuff like football transfer news into more serious stuff like politics and fake coronavirus news.
Probably how Trump and Brexit etc came about.
This would be a great example / case study.
