Yea but the bank that loaned madrid all the money at favorable rates, was the same bank that needed saving by the European Union. Which is taxpayer money, because if a bank gets government support, that really means taxpayer money !

My eyes, MY EYES.......
Great shorts Gareth
JaysusHe just wants to be Ronnie.

Him and Ronnie can exchange fashion tips.
Mardrid council bought their training ground for £400m and gave them a new one at a peppercorn rent.
His second toe is stupid long, possibly longer than noodles longspoon!Jaysus

Didn't notice this yet, maybe he sleeps upside down hanging from a branch like a bat.Anyway, I'm going to stop opening that pic at work before I get fired.
Oi, less of the long second toe barbs. Mine's longer than my little finger... does this make me a bad person?
Barca has the highest wage bill in football world. Ibrahimovic costed what 46m + Eto'o. This year you signed a Brazilian teenager for around 60m. If there is a club who must not talk about this transfers is Barcelona. They are almost as bad as Madrid when it come to spend big money.
Have they really not signed the fecker yet? This is the most tedious summer ever.
Not only that but apparently Neymar included some clause in his contract like Barca have to pay of all the expenses of his friends and family members traveling once every two months to visit him. On this matter, FCBarca should really keep it quiet tbh.
You might be a decendant of a velociraptor!

There can be only one.

I'm a little worried that you only find that picture slightly disturbing!
He looks like he is wearing a tutu.
He is a bigger fanny than Ronaldo. Bale license plate, tm'ing 'his' celebration and now wearing rubbish like that.
You can tell that Bale believes his own hype, that's the annoying thing about him. He's a very good player but isnt anywhere near the level of Ronaldo, the fee is absolutely ridiculous.
Ronaldo is going to out perform him every week and with top class players like Ozil and Isco beside him he's going to look quite ordinary imo, it wouldn't surprise me to see Isco be the better player out of the 2 over the next few years.

Gareth Feathers McGraw Bale
Right, that's it. Consider yourself reported.
Bale has always struck me as a shy and humble type, still maybe I'm missing something. Ronaldo is the second best player in the world, so it shouldn't be any shame for Bale that he is being 'out performed' every week.

Looks like a mixture of hot pants and mini skirt. Needless to say I could have gone through the rest of my life happily without ever seeing this but now what's seen can't be made unseen.
Oh yeah and Real got royally robbed with that deal overpaying by at least 45M €.
Well when he costs more money than the second best player in the world you'd expect him to play at a similar level.
Not really. You'd have to be a bit thick to think the amount of money some people exchange for a player is going to suddenly make them better at football. Everyone knows how good Bale and Ronaldo are and I really hope no one genuinely believes Bale is going to play at a similar level to him.
Well that's why I said the fee is ridiculous, who the feck pays more money for a far inferior player. The logic to begin with is stupid.
The fee is ridiculous yes.
A lot of Madrid fans are just thick like that.
I wonder if we will find out the fee and the wages. Last time it was United who revealed the fee first, but Spurs (or Madrid) may not want to. The Spanish press is still split into the Marca and AS camps.
AS think the final (expected to be accepted) bid was 91m Euros, 78m quid and that Madrid haven't moved from there as they don't want this to be a record. They also think the pay is around 10m pre-tax / 5m net (in Benzema, Ozil, Ramos, Casillas territory).
Marca thinks it's 99m and 10m after tax.
Either way, more money than footballing sense, but perhaps significant psychologically for Madrid and for Bale.

According to the bbc it's either 70m upfront or 86m over 3/4 years
He was the shy and humble type but I think its pretty clear that success and attention has changed him a little, his Ronaldo-copying antics and trademarking that daft website prove it. Don't think he's an arrogant calculating cnut type of guy but just not the sharpest tool in the box.
He has gibbon toes. What is that about? And how can any man think it is OK to wear those shorts. You have to be unstable to do that.
Where is Glaston btw ? This happening + William fecking them off ....

He's in a corner rocking back and forth saying "We" and "Us" repeatedly.
Are the Madrid fans excited about this or what's the general feeling over there about this transfer does anybody know?
This saga has seriously bored me to pieces. Couldn't give two shits what happens to him now.
I'm not really excited about this one yet, but I don't want to come over as a spoilt brat...
Bale!Bale!Bale! OMG!!1 Can't wait to see him tear Alves a new one!!1!
that's the spirit Vato.I think we can bring Scholes out of retirement again and our fans would be more excited, such is the longing for a new signing.
I honestly hope you guys get Mata in part of the Rooney deal. This will make it much more easy for me to hate them again!

I honestly think you'll benefit from this deal aswell, not really convinced Chelsea will though. Don't think Rooney is the easiest guy to coach, and knowing Mourinho, things could go sour really quickly.
I've not been paying attention to this at all. How official is it? I've not seen anywhere claim that he's actually signed yet, but the Beeb's reporting on it seems to think it's a given. What's the craic?
