Yeah. Look, I'm not ragging on the guy other than at his 'surprise' that the fans were pissed. Its not like he came out and said or did anything to dissuade them. And why would he? Turnabout is fair play.
In this particular instance I dont blame him either. Madrid have treated him like crap and are unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on whether you give half a crap about Real, which I do not) the party obligated to pay him.
That being said though, hes an oft-injured 30 year-old on a huge pay packet, who was won everything hes likely to, and while he'll always be a Welsh hero, Golf is going to start creeping up on that list....I really dont think considering whatever club team he goes to to be his 3rd priority to be that much of a stretch.
Right now Gareth Bale is George Costanza working at Play Now.
