    And apparently Rambo more likely as Bale dependent on us qualifying. Both minted, having been on ludicrous wages for years and wanting to join their local club and play together for 10-12 weeks minimum. Could be bollocks based on just one of the three things I've been told but collectively they point at deals being discussed with, apparently, wages going to charity. Plus you don't both randomly join Wales' most expensive golf club at the same time😂

    Absolutely no chance. I refuse to get excited cause it’s too good to be true.... I bloody hope it’s true

    I hope the 3 unrelated sources are:

    1. Bale
    2. Rambo
    3. Steve Morison

    tell me its them, please

    Never thought I’d say this, but after Ramsey’s loan spell at Rangers, I’m not so sure about him coming here.

    He did it just to fool everyone that’s he’s lost it so he can sign for us

    I'm not too worried about his recent penalty record though, as we never get awarded any.

    The penalty was the least of my concerns, it’s getting him out on the pitch often enough to take one.

    Same with Bale. If, by some coincidence, they wanted to play for us short term just to maintain fitness ahead of the World Cup, I'd be wary of it. Yes, they're both still immensely capable and talented footballers, but I want them playing week in, week out, or there's a real risk of unbalancing the squad. If their aim was to retire after the world cup, where would that leave us?

    We're heading into unknown territory next season. If we had one of our decent Championship squads from the last 17 years then I'd agree, but with those 2 making appearances - even if it's off the bench - then I'd be happy. I'm sure if thing worked out up until the World Cup then they'd probably return for the rest of the season..

    But that would need to be confirmed before the start of the season. If they used us as a training camp and then retired, I wouldn't be happy at all.

    It would be a worry, we know the championship is unforgiving.

    When he was on the pitch for Rangers, he was exceptional though.

    Re: Bale and Ramsey.......

    Fans talk about his penalty miss in the final.

    Personally, I think he was caught in two minds, one, take a normal penalty and two, take a Panenka, as he did against Israel (I believe).

    Totally over thought it and if Sunday was to go to penalties and he attempted one, well I think a few fans would be upset .

    Whilst where on the subject, here’s a few heart in the mouth moments

    The Panenka pelanty was in Serbia, ironically in the same stadium that Panenka took his……..that was a long night, latest I’ve been kept in the ground after the final whistle.

    Any signing based on us qualifying has got a whole lot harder.

    Ditto .
    And Bale may well not fit into the squad either, could upset things ??

    we haven't really got a squad yet, and maybe having him might make it more attractive to players we're trying to sign

    Jamilu Collins seems to be Gareth Bale's No 1 fan based on his 'Get To Know....' Q&A on the club website.

    People sitting back and stroking their beard asking if we should take Bale and Ramsey if offered - ffs this board has reached a new level of self proclaimed expertise 😂😂😂

    They won’t be here for the money, and I doubt we’d pay them much. If they use us to stay match fit for the WC it benefits everyone. God I hope we qualify just because we’ve qualified but if we got these two for 4 months, I would be doing cartwheels. Rambo is without doubt a big City fan too, his favourite ever player is Kav

    So, what you’re saying in essence then is that Robbie Fowler was worth what we paid him purely on his reputation. I’ve never said Bale is not worth the risk, his relationship with his club had all but broken down and so he was bound to miss a lot of games, but Ramsey was proclaimed as the greatest signing the Scottish game had seen in years back in January, he was at a club that were desperate to pick him, but would anyone class his time at Rangers as a success now?

    I’ve said before that Ramsey is my favourite modern day footballer and I’m not bothered in the slightest about that penalty, but it doesn’t take much expertise (self proclaimed or otherwise - incidentally, when have I ever proclaimed my so called expertise on here before?), to look at his fitness record in recent years and deduce that signing him would be a very big risk for a club as cash strapped as we are meant to be that is in need of building a new squad almost from scratch.
