I've no doubt that if Real do have the £60mil plus that Levy will demand, they may just get him. Levy has already reportedly indicated that £50mil is just the starting point of any negotiations.

this sounds like the the beginning of one of those Chuck Norris threads, but for Levy.
Opening round:
Real Madrid: £50m?
Levy: No
And that's how levy will be thinking. - And rightly so. Unfortunately, the premier league loses another fantastic player (if it happens).
The sooner Ronaldo comes back, the better. I couldn't care less if he makes United much stronger, the guy is class and is wasted in a league with just 2 teams who battle it out each season.
If it's pointless debating in these parts, whether it be about Bale or anything else, why come on to this board so frequently?
Finding it ludicrous is your opinion. I personally don't find a settled, young family staying put for the time being as ludicrous, though clearly we share different views on that.
You're trying to put words into my mouth by suggesting anything to do with Wilshere, I couldn't give a toss about him nor could I care if he stayed or left Arsenal now or in "7 years". He's not the one being linked with a move abroad - though for the record, he did come out and say not so long ago that he'd love to stay at Arsenal for his career, in footballing terms we all know that's likely to be bollocks but they were his words.
It's also "the height of naivity" to assume Bale will jump ship at the first opportunity when someone like Madrid comes calling. Many players have moved abroad and noticed the grass isn't always greener, Modric being a recent and prime example, he's had a front row ticket for most of Madrid's games this season.
I've no doubt Bale will eventually leave us to join a bigger club, he's a world class player that can get into any team's first XI but there's no rush for him to leave just yet because bigger clubs come sniffing. He and his family are settled here, he's still developing (at a brilliant rate), he's idolised by fans - and he seems to share a similar feeling, he's playing in the biggest league in the world and his current form is propelling him into the international limelight of footballing superstars.

I've said it at least ten times before, and now I'll say it an eleventh time...
Bale is going no where.
I saw an interview that he gave to some internet-based sports program, and it was patently evident to anyone with even half a brain that Bale loves being at Spurs, and that he loves the squad. He was very complimentary about what Spurs were doing and where he thought we are headed. He spoke like a player who seems himself as part of something big at Spurs, not a mercenary bit-player, who will cash in his chips any time soon.
We are long over-due another Hoddle or Ledley, someone who sees himself as a Spurs Legend-in-the-making, and I'd put good money on it being Bale.
The PESKIEs of this world spout their bile because (a) they think they are being clever, and (b) they are (quite rightly) terrified that we will go on to achieve things that they have consistently failed to achieve over the past decade.

We'll see HIAG, neither you nor I know that.
Lest I remind you of your now infamous not606 quote:

Gareth, Sepp Blatter has a message for you regarding you compatriot and idol, and he's talking sense for once!

You're probably right, WY - although I was wondering if he was sarcastically suggesting that Giggs should have applied the 'one club' rule to his personal life as well, rather than playing for (say) United one week and Citeh the next.......
What Blatter doesn't say is this...
Club
Manchester United
Premier League (12): 1992–93, 1993–94, 1995–96, 1996–97, 1998–99, 1999–2000, 2000–01, 2002–03, 2006–07, 2007–08, 2008–09, 2010–11
FA Cup (4): 1993–94, 1995–96, 1998–99, 2003–04
Football League Cup (4): 1991–92, 2005–06, 2008–09, 2009–10
FA Community Shield (8): 1993, 1994, 1996, 1997, 2003, 2007, 2008, 2010
UEFA Champions League (2): 1998–99, 2007–08
UEFA Super Cup (1): 1991
Intercontinental Cup (1): 1999
FIFA Club World Cup (1): 2008
This is a list of the honours won by Ryan Giggs.
I'm sure that if we were in the position to offer Bale the opportunity to win even half of those honours, we would have no trouble hanging on to him.
