Well…Bale certainly changed the game……
Never go back…even if it is for 14 or so matches….
Ah the gooner agitator rears his head again. Only appears when something has gone wrong and pretends he saw it all coming.
Predictable and dull, find something more productive to fill your time with you sad little man.
