I dont think he will be short of offers at all

The great bake off to where?

could be way out but just for an example.

that would mean that he'd be effectively paying about £6 million quid a year to play for us.

he'd have to want to play for is a LOT.

Not really as he'd pay 50% tax i'd imagine.

One factor to consider is that he has a personal contract with Adidas, they might have an interest in where he ends up next season.

I'm just imagining Morison coming out and slating Bale after a bad performance, saying he's got a lot to learn

"I took Gareth off after 60 minutes because he just wasn't defending from the front. Tom had gone through what was expected of him and he fell way short; The fact that he had scored three goals, set up the other two and won us a penalty doesn't wash with us as a club and what we expect from our players"

They genuinely should look at him on a 1 year contract

Bumped into Bale this weekend in my City shirt gave him a nod, then winked and did a slight quick aylotaloh. 😳

One of your funniest attempts, really is:thumbup::hehe:

I don't think Gareth Bale would have the season-long impact that Craig Bellamy gave us.

Just dont think it would work, even if finances could be sorted. Bale, with, hopefully , his WC commitments for Wales and his injury record would be disruptive to a team that Morison is trying to build.

Bellamy or Bale? Which one would you imagine to be more disruptive? ......Bellamy came through with flying colours.

Think your right Bella's looked a lot fitter than Bale does now , perhaps a bit of Morison tough love might sort that out

I think he would be a lot better than Bellamy was for us, I think he would still be a top premier League player

I'd like both Bale and Ramsey here; come home lads right now.

Love to see him here, but surely too complicated, finances apart.

Cannot believe there are people here saying they wouldn’t want one of the best if not the best British player off all time who just happens to be from this City playing for Cardiff when he clearly still has so much to offer.

It’s f**king mad.

Can you imagine the extra "bums-on-seats" with Bale's signing!!
