Chapter 672 "Little Sheep" Sean


Chapter 672 "Little Sheep" Sean

"...Sometimes, I actually appreciate Tony Clark's football, because when the team attacks, it's like mercury pouring down the ground, it's really beautiful. I know it's annoying to talk about a successor like this...but For all my love for Leeds City, I have to say that Tony Clark picked the wrong team. A team ranked in the middle of the Premier League, I 100% support his football, after all, this is a very unique style of play, and it is pleasing to the eye. But the problem is that Leeds City is a relegation team. , should the priority be to score points stably and ensure that we can stay in the Premier League first?”

On the TV screen, a white-haired old man was talking to the camera, and a line of subtitles was typed next to him:

Lauren Galli, former Leeds City meritorious manager

Then the screen switched, and a middle-aged male host appeared in front of the camera and said with a smile: "Recently, Lauren Galli, who is idle at home, accepted an interview with our station. In addition to sharing his leisure time at home with our reporters, In addition, he also talked about the most concerning prospect of Leeds City's relegation. In his words, he criticized Tony Clark's persistent tactics..."

Under the TV hanging from the ceiling, a group of people in the "White Rose" bar were sitting around and having a heated discussion.

"Guys, listen to me, listen to me!" A middle-aged man raised his arms covered with tattoos and shouted loudly, "Just because we return to the North Stand does not mean that we bow to the club. Quite the contrary. , This time we go back just to express our dissatisfaction to the club in person, because we want to welcome Sean Barnett home with the warmest cheers. The more enthusiastic we are about Barnett, the rostrum and the VIP box. Those people’s faces are even more embarrassing!”

"Levin is right!" Another person stood up and echoed, "And we only returned to the stands for this game, not for every game in the future. When this game is over, what should we do? Do it. Continue to empty the stands and express our attitude to the club! Let's seriously consider this suggestion and let Barnet feel the warmth of going home..."

"But isn't that cheering for our opponents? Sean Barnett is no longer a Leeds player. He is back in Flanders for North London Wanderers. He is our enemy and is here to beat us. "North London Wanderers are now competing for Champions League qualification. I don't think this will be a warm game." Some people objected.

"Of course, of course. We're just welcoming Barnett home, we won't be giving Londoners any applause or cheers," explained the original man.

"Then what? When we welcome Barnett? What do you plan to do in the next game time? Are you stunned in the stands?" The objector continued to ask. "What are we going to do? Cheer Leeds City? Or boo? Or... do nothing? But either way, I think about it with my head and think this is really weird. I do Fans have probably never seen such a strange game in all these years...Sorry Levin, I'm not targeting you, I just can't imagine what the point is for us to return to the North Stand under such circumstances."


Seeing that Levin could not convince his companions, he could only turn his attention to David Miller, who was sitting at the head: "David, tell me, what is your opinion?"

When he said this, everyone present turned their attention to David Miller.

In full view of everyone, David did not speak immediately, but fell into deep thought.

The others remained silent, waiting patiently for their leader to make a decision.

Although they usually joked about David's poor relationship with his son and made fun of him, they never minced words when it came to serious matters.

After about half a minute, David said: "'White Rose' is a whole. Although we have been divided several times in the past few months, this makes the importance of a whole even more obvious. So let me make a statement first , no matter what the final result is, I hope that everyone will never act arbitrarily like before, no matter what the reason is.”

What he said was very serious.

Everyone nodded solemnly and agreed: "Of course, we are a whole."

"Don't worry, David. I support the final decision 100%, even if it's not what I wanted."

"Me too."

"Same!"

……

After everyone expressed their opinions, David Miller slapped the table with his hand: "Let's go and welcome Sean Barnett back to Flanders. Then he booed at the 13th minute of the game. To express our dissatisfaction to the capitalists on the podium, we need to make some banners, not only to welcome Barnett home, but also to demonstrate to the club."

As soon as David Miller said this, the two groups who were still arguing looked at each other and accepted it.

This is indeed a more appropriate approach and successfully resolved the conflict between the two parties.

"Agree!"

"I agree too!"

"No objection!"

"Just do it!"

Everyone expressed their stance again, and the matter was settled.

"Okay, everyone, just get ready. It will take time to make the banners." David Miller announced the adjournment of the meeting.

The companions drank all the beer in their glasses, put down their glasses, stood up and left.

Soon only David Miller was left at the tables.

Then he heard a voice from behind: "David, I have a question for a long time. Can you help me answer it?"

David Millan turned around and saw a thin, silver-haired old man coming down from upstairs.

Bar owner Leo White.

"Of course, Old White. What's your problem?"

The old man walked downstairs and leaned on the bar, his chest rising and falling violently, as if just a few steps would consume all his strength.

After he took a breath, he looked at David Miller who turned to look at him and asked: "What if...I mean what if, what if Leeds City finally succeeds in relegation. You will continue to destroy the North Stand next season." Free? ”

Facing this question raised by Old White, David Miller didn't know how to answer, so he remained silent.

"Or, in fact, you are secretly expecting the team to be relegated?" the boss asked again.

This time David Miller quickly defended: "No, absolutely not. Old White, you can't guess us like this..."

"If the team is not relegated, how can we prove that you are right?" White didn't care about David's excuse, but continued to ask.

This time, David Miller didn't make any excuse. He opened his mouth and no sound came out.

In the end, under White's watchful eye, David Miller could only flee.

“…Several Leeds City supporters’ organizations have announced that they will return to the North Stand when Leeds City host North London Rangers. It is reported that the move is to welcome Sean Barnett back to Flanders… ”

Hu Lai listened to the news broadcast from the car radio and said to Yong Jun: "This Sean Barnett's status in the hearts of Leeds City fans is really high..."

"Of course, he played a big role in Leeds City's success in reaching the Premier League. In that season he scored 21 goals and had six assists. He was voted by Leeds City fans that season. The most popular player." Yong Jun said while driving. "Before Pete Williams, he was the most highly anticipated talent on the team."

Hu Lai nodded, not surprised by this.

A player who performs so well is a talent he has cultivated himself. Of course, it is easier for him to win the love of local fans.

After all, with a local household registration book, the bloodline is more pure...

Outsiders have to work harder to earn the same respect.

This is true for any team.

After all, football clubs are essentially carriers of community culture and regional culture.

Being separated from the community area is like a tree without water or a tree without roots. And regional identity is naturally one of the most important emotional bonds in the team.

Hu Lai was able to gain the acceptance and love of the fans so quickly in Flash Star. In addition to his good performance, it has a lot to do with the fact that he is an Anton native.

So Hulay doesn't think there's anything wrong with Sean Barnett's treatment.

But Uncle Yong said: "But I personally think the actions of these fans are questionable. At the very least, what they do may make the players who are currently playing for Leeds City unhappy."

"Is it normal to welcome a former meritorious player home?"

Hu Lai didn't think there was any problem, because this incident is very common in the football world and has even become a legend.

"It would be normal if these fans hadn't vacated the North Stand before. But they refused to go to the game and now they are back to welcome Sean Barnett. Do you think other Leeds City players will What do you think?" Yong Jun asked. "Do you think that those of us who are playing in Leeds City are not as good as someone who has left? Even if Sean Barnett has made great contributions to the team's promotion. But now in the team, Is there no one who has also contributed to the team’s promotion? ”

Hu Lai was stunned. This was indeed an issue he had not considered before.

Sean Barnett walked out of the training ground and was surrounded by reporters: "Barnett, North London Wanderers' opponent in the next round of the league is Leeds City. What do you think?"

Barnett, who is tall and straight, smiled slightly: "I am very happy. To be able to return to Flanders, to be honest, I can't wait."

"You have played in Leeds City for six years. Do you still have many friends there?"

"Yes, I still miss the time when I played in Leeds City." The smile on Sean Barnett's face does not diminish.

"North London Wanderers are in the midst of an important phase of their fight to qualify for the Champions League, and at the same time, your old club are also fighting for relegation. Does that put you in a dilemma?"

Barnett shook his head: "I am now a player for North London Wanderers, and of course I will do my best for the current team. Of course, I will not celebrate after scoring a goal."

※※※

"...I won't celebrate after scoring a goal."

Sean Barnett said this with a smile on the TV.

Someone in front of the TV sighed and murmured: "There was no need to be like this..."

David Miller was not paying attention to the content on the TV. He was asking other companions: "Are the banners ready?"

"It's done." Levin showed him.

One greets Sean Barnett: "Welcome home, Sean the Sheep!"

Another one pointed the finger directly at the club management: "He should have been our hero!"

"This second banner, we are going to hang it up after Sean scores a goal." Levin introduced to David Miller.

Although Sean Barnett has said he won't celebrate after scoring, fans will use this to slam the club's management.

Ask those high-ranking officials: Such an excellent player originally belonged to Leeds City, but you betrayed him for 25 million pounds. I ask you now if you regret it! (End of chapter)
