Everything seemed to be going fine yesterday then Bale meets with Morison, we're then told (on here and in Press) that Bale now just needs to decide and today people are saying it's off.

Maybe Bale said he wanted too much choice on where, when and how he plays and Morison didn't want to be tied to that ?

Let's just wait and see, I've never known a big transfer at this club go smoothly.

I just find it strange that there are no conversations going on today according to previous posts yet today is the day the club have, allegedly cocked it up

A lot of stuff you’ve just posted I agree with, and your right the local Media and Twitter and this forum after the meetings said it was now more complicated and it has become and I’ve just been told it’s not good and their is now a lot lesser chance of signing Gareth Bale.

Football can change just like that ,Wez and I just had a chat and it’s true.

But I can only say what I’ve been told by someone close to it all.

Yep, things can and do change rapidly and there could be another twist yet.

However, one thing is for sure. If Bale does go to MLS then this was a lot more to do with money than we were led to believe by many people including his Agent.

It was said he wanted to be with his family and be in the best possible condition for the World Cup.

If he goes to MLS he will be away from his family (he won't uproot them for a short contract), he's even further away from the Welsh FA organisation and he will certainly have less of a say in how, when he plays because whoever signs him will want to make money out of the transaction themselves.

This could just be part of the normal bargaining or could even be a smoke screen for Tan to swoop in and save the day publicly.

Who knows ? But until it's announced I think we all just need to hope a good solution for all parties can be achieved.

You could be right on tan ,I said that to annis.

Im convinced he will sign. It's typical hard balling over something before the finalisation.

Bale's demands are fair.

I said only Dalman can mess this up and he is.

100% of commercial sales etc releated to him ? So the club doesn't get anything ? And only 10 games ,What's the point in that ?

Yep, it's fine details now.

Big upheaval for him to move to America before a World Cup, a big, big risk for him to take.

exactly, if the club don’t get any gain from him signing then what is the point.. maybe it’s me being old fashioned, but if I were Bale, I would do all that I could to help my ‘ hometown ‘ club, that would be my next ambition, Bale and family are set up for life financially, so surely it’s all about what he can do to help Wales and hopefully his hometown club..
however, his agent, probably doesn’t share the same sentiment .

Was told basically wants 100% of the rights etc made off him so basically we wouldn't profit financially, if that is true then he can bugger off .

If that's the case (maybe, maybe not) then it really is all about the money in which case we can't afford him.

The person who told me this could be wrong tho ,everyone on this thread is getting it 2nd or 3rd hand ,it could be Chinese whispers and he's having his medical now and signs.

I really dont know how Tan and Dalman operate our club. No interest, no motivation, and an ability to slowly kill the club.

And the majority on here let it happen.

So what’s the sticking point? If you and Wez have heard similar I’m sure you can share it here.

Things can change in football but I know everyone wants it to happen including me but it must benefit the club too ,got to be able to make a commercial profit from the opportunity .

Exactly

What a load of absolute rubbish. If Bale doesnt come we wont get those profits anyway!

Any club on the planet would take Bale under those circumstances because of what he brings.

Anyone other than us....

Somehow we all knew Dalman would put the kybosh on this.
