Chapter 55 Hodge's Glory

On April 40, there will be three rounds of League No.[-].Nottingham Forest away to fourth-ranked Reading.

"...it was a tough away game, with Nottingham Forest being held back by the home team at The `Madejski!"

"John, I don't think this is right... Why did the away team encounter the tenacious resistance of the home team in the game? Doesn't it sound like Nottingham Forest is turning away from the guest?"

"Stephen, you're right. That's right, Tang En's team is indeed turning away from home!"

The voices of the narrator and guests came over the radio, and Randy James, sitting in the driver's seat of the taxi, honked the horn hard. "Nice job! Tony!"

The passenger sitting in the back frowned and complained: "Don't press that thing, I can't hear the sound of the radio!"

"Ah... I'm so sorry, sir. Are you a Forest fan too?" There were few cars ahead and the road was wide. The driver Randy exchanged a few words of "listening experience" with the pregnant passenger sitting in the back seat.

"Of course, it's been since I was a child." The passenger didn't talk much, and obviously didn't want to hear the game broadcast because of chatting. "Look ahead!"

"Don't worry, sir. At this time, everyone is watching football and drinking in the bar, and there are no people on the road. Besides, you can rest assured of my technology, I am a 27-year-old car..." Randy turned his head away as he said.At this moment, a loud noise suddenly sounded from the radio in the car. Amidst the crackling sound as if something went wrong with the stereo, John Mortensen screamed:

"Yes! Yes! Yes - Ian Jess (Jess)! Beautiful direct free kick! It pierced the Reading wall like an arrow and stabbed in the heart! It was a fatal blow! No. 704 minutes , Nottingham Forest took the lead away, 1:0!"

Randy James in the front driver's seat and the big fat passenger in the middle of the rear seat raised their hands at the same time, shouting: "Forest Forest!"

"Bang! Bang!" This is the sound of their hands hitting the roof of the car.

"Squeak—" This is the sound of tires rubbing against the asphalt road.

The black square taxi made a zigzag turn on the road, then returned to normal.

"What a bastard! You're still driving!" There was a shocking curse from a passenger in the car.

The driver Randy looked very excited: "Sir, I told you that you can completely trust my skills! Haha, long live the Forest team!"

In the Madejski Stadium, the visiting Forest fans became the protagonists. They sang loudly to celebrate the team's victory.

The final whistle of the game has already sounded. Tang En and his soldiers—yes, this is a war related to their respective fates and futures. He, Tang En, is the supreme commander, and the players are his soldiers—surrounded by Celebrate your victories together.Successfully scoring three points is a solid step for him to compete for the rankings in the future.

"The Forest team won! It was a dull game, but for Tang En, he will definitely not agree with me. These three points are crucial for the Forest team! Thank God, they won! Poor Reading team……"

When the team came out of the locker room and boarded the team bus waiting outside, some people would stop to sign autographs for the Forest fans who enthusiastically followed them to the away game, and even meet their requirements for a group photo.

The treatment Twain received was not inferior to the players at all.As a head coach, it is really a blessing that fans often ask him for autographs.

"Hey! Tony, we can go to the Super League! Right?" When Twain walked to the edge of the fence to sign autographs for the fans, there would always be such a voice asking him.

Tang En grinned and nodded his head: "That's right, we will go to Supermarket!"

Then Tang En signed all the way with his head down.The team won the ball, everyone is in a good mood, and he is willing to meet the requirements of all fans.

Then he stopped in front of a person, only to find that this person didn't have a notebook, Forest team postcard, Forest team jersey, scarf, hat... He just stood in front of Tang En empty-handed, and had no intention of asking for an autograph.

Tang En raised his head strangely, and was slightly surprised to find that the person standing in front of him was the leader who led the others to shout slogans and sing songs on the sidelines of the training field that day.

This is an elderly middle-aged man with a pair of gray eyes, white temples, and dense wrinkles on the corners of the eyes and forehead. He even looks a little kind, without the hideous scars or grotesque rings as imagined. Ornament—Of course it was Tang En's imagination.

Tang En looked at him, and he also looked at Tang En.

"Mark Hodge." The other party introduced himself and extended his hand at the same time.

The other party offered to be friendly, and Twain couldn't refuse, so he also extended his hand: "Tony Twain."

Hodge grinned at him and said: "No need to introduce, everyone knows your name. The forest team can have such a performance, all because of you! Well done!"

"Thank you." Tang En smiled and didn't have much reaction to Hodge's compliment.Now his head is in a mess, is this middle-aged man who looks very polite really the leader of a football hooligans club?Can you imagine that he suddenly picked up a brick and slapped someone on the forehead fiercely?
"I have a question for Mr. Tang En." Hodge stared at Tang En and said.

"please say."

"The last round of the league, our match against Millwall, how sure is your team of winning?"

Dunn wondered why he didn't ask questions like "Can we be in the Premier League next season", instead he cared about the outcome of a game.According to the current situation of the Forest team, by the last game of the league, the overall situation may have been decided, and winning or losing is not important.

"...It depends on the situation of the team at that time. If the qualification for the play-offs is determined in advance, or if they are directly promoted, I will not put too much energy on the last game." Dunn answered truthfully.If this question was asked by a reporter, Tang En must have been fooling the media with nonsense.

Hodge shook his head in disappointment: "This is not possible, Mr. Twain...I think no matter what situation we were in before that match, it is best to win the match against Millwall."

"Do we have a grudge against them?"

"Um, don't you think it would be better to end the season with a win?"

Dunn thought about it, and what Hodge said was not bad, and he didn't think he would lose to Millwall at home with a substitute team.So he nodded: "Okay, I think it will be a victory like today."

Hodge was very happy that Twain could say that, "We all like to win, don't we?"

"That's right." Tang En nodded.

Hodge turned up the hood of the jumper and put it on his head, bid farewell to Dunn, then turned around and squeezed out of the crowd.Tang En didn't see his brothers, he was the only one who seemed to be waiting here to ask himself this question.

There were fans calling his name not far away, Tang En turned and walked away.

Hodge's excuse was too far-fetched, but Dunn didn't care about why he wanted to see Forest beat Millwall so much.

Probably because everyone wants to see victory, not defeat...
