Gareth Bale: Spurs must move on - Andre Villas-Boas

Tottenham manager Andre Villas-Boas says it is time for the club to "move on" following Gareth Bale's world-record transfer to Real Madrid.

The forward sealed an £85.3m move earlier this month, and Villas-Boas said although he is a "wonderful footballer", it would have been difficult to motivate the Welshman if he had stayed.

The Spurs manager also said the club intend to cooperate with the FA's warning that any fan caught chanting the word "Yid" could face criminal charges, despite some Spurs supporters singing "Yid Army" as a form of identity.
