Chapter 124 The [-] Million Pound New Stadium
Chapter 124 The new stadium of [-] million pounds

"First of all, I want to say that the private lives of players and coaches are their freedom, and we in Notts County will not interfere. This is our minimum respect for every Notts County player and coach!
Secondly, I need to reiterate to everyone that the main topic of our press conference today is to announce the plans for the new stadium in Notts County, not to answer rumors..."

Wei Xun looked at the reporters who were still whispering to each other below, and his tone of voice was a little serious, and his voice was also very obvious. He just hoped that everyone would respect the personal privacy of the players and coaches.

This is absolutely impossible!
If we don't capture some privacy, what can we use to catch readers' attention and support our families?

You Notts County give me three meals a day?
funny.

Wei Xun handed the microphone to Marotta. The next work needs to be done by him, the general manager of the Notts County Club. After all, Marotta is basically responsible for the negotiations with the Nottingham City Government.

Not to mention busy making money, Wei Xun just doesn't want to see the ugly faces of these British politicians.

"My friends from the press, I am very pleased to inform you about the plans for the new Notts County Stadium. Mr. Wei Xun, the chairman of the Notts County Club, has decided to spend [-] million pounds in the old office building, player dormitory and restaurant next to the Meadow Lane Stadium. Directional blasting, rebuilding a modern stadium in the leveled area, with an initial design capacity of [-] seats and reserved expansion space, the maximum capacity of the stadium in the future can reach [-], and it will become the largest stadium in the entire Midlands region.”

"Fake!"

As soon as Marotta's words came out, all the media reporters were dumbfounded.

You build the stadium and build it. The key point is that you spent [-] million pounds to build the stadium and accommodate [-] fans?

The news is so big, maybe Notts County will become a joke the next day.

Who would have thought that Notts County would actually drop such a blockbuster. What kind of nonsense is this? To be honest, the sales of newspapers and magazines would double.

Let's not talk about the stadium, just talk about the cost of [-] million pounds. It has only been more than half a year, and Notts County has so much money?

Before the start of the season, Wei Xun injected 5000 million pounds into Notts County. Although it has been spent at the moment, it still made everyone look at Notts County with admiration.

5000 million pounds is not a small amount, and it can buy two Verons.

Later, Notts County also built a new base, and brand new buildings rose from the ground. The Notts County base is not like a football club at all, but like a community with Notts County as the main body.

They knew that Wei Xun's family was rich, but no matter how rich they were, they couldn't play like this, right?
Co-authoring this is not a press conference, this is showing off your wealth?

Hao, friend?

They don't know where the Notts County chairman Wei Xun got his money from, although there are rumors that Wei Xun made a lot of money gambling before the season.

But now that the [-] million pound stadium came out, did the reporters feel unbalanced?

Can you win [-] million pounds by betting on football?
Seeing that the reporters at the scene were a little confused, reporters from two media outlets in the Nottingham area, the Evening News and The Post, began to give these guys a free science education:
"Chairman Wei is China's super negative second generation, with billions of assets under his name. But he doesn't care about his old age. He started from scratch in Nottingham. He has several companies in his hand, such as Magpie Tea and Magpie Catering. That's Wangjianglou. Bar?"

Looking at the young lady from Coventry beside him, James really couldn't bear to hurt her:
"Forget it, I'll take you out for a meal after a while, and you'll know it. I'm currently preparing for two other branches. Others include Magpie Tourism, Huaxin Sports Management Company, and Notts County Investment Group. It's money!"

Looking at the young lady's adoring eyes, James felt so happy, as if what he just said was his own.

At this time, the Premier League powerhouse Arsenal is preparing to build a new stadium. The current budget is increasing again and again, but it seems that the final figure is only [-] million pounds. According to the stadium plan that has been disclosed, the Emirates Stadium can accommodate [-] fans. large modern stadium.

And now, Marotta said that the new stadium in Notts County will invest [-] million pounds, and the League Two clubs have to be richer than the Premier League giants?
Are you kidding me?
And, does Notts County need a 5-man stadium?

This is not the case with great joy, and you have come to the UK to play this trick?

It is undeniable that Meadow Lane Stadium has become the most popular home stadium in League Two, but the stadium has 50.00 seats, and the current attendance rate of Notts County is just over 5%. Stadium, where are there so many fans in Notts County?

"Use those construction workers from China on the construction site to make up the number?"

But that's not enough.

A series of questions flashed through the minds of the reporters. No one asked questions, and they had to send the manuscript out by email. The editors in the newspaper office were still waiting.

After a brief silence, James, a reporter from the Evening News, stood up and forced an expression of disbelief on his face:
"Mr. Marotta, [-] million pounds, a modern stadium with [-] seats, Notts County, isn't this a joke?"

This is an old acquaintance, James' words instantly broke the silence, and even Jing Wei Xun, who was sitting aside and pretending to be serious, almost laughed out loud.

It is said that James' acting skills are getting better and better. If he can join the film and television industry in the future, he will definitely have a good job.

Marotta smiled and shook his head, but did not speak. James is a nurse in Notts County. There is nothing to answer this question, and everyone on the rostrum knows it in their hearts.

Next, Patricia, another hard-core reporter from Notts County, also started her own performance:
"Mr. Marotta, we all know that Meadow Lane, the home stadium of Notts County, can accommodate 50.00 fans, and the current attendance rate is around [-]%. If the new stadium rashly increases the seating capacity to [-], there may be a large area of ​​vacancy. The phenomenon of the stadium, is it not worth the loss to do so? What kind of considerations does Notts County want to build a new stadium?"

Wei Xun and Marotta looked at each other and smiled slightly. The two of them knew Patricia's question well, after all, the line had already been matched.

Marotta picked up the microphone, walked to the center of the rostrum, and said loudly:
"Thank you, Miss Reporter, your question is very good. What I want to say is that the city of Rome was not built in a day, and the new stadium in Notts County will also take two years to complete."

Patricia pretended to be puzzled and said:
"What can two years tell? At the Notts County fan meeting a few days ago, there were only 320 fans at the scene. What will Notts County do to fill so many vacancies?"

"haha, thank you……"

Marotta played again and won the initiative for himself with a hearty laugh:

"Miss reporter, maybe what I just said was not very clear. I just said that our new stadium will take about two years to build. In other words, it will take at least four years before the new stadium can be officially put into use. "

Marotta paused, looked at the media reporters under the rostrum, and asked a new question:
"I would like to ask all the friends here, what kind of league level do you think Notts County will be in in [-]?"

The reporters were lost in thought, their fingers tapping away on keyboards and typewriters, and their minds racing.

Yes, the new stadium will not be put into use for at least two years. What kind of height will Notts County be at by then?

English B?League one?Or the Premier League?

According to Notts County's current strong performance in League Two, they will definitely be a League One team next season.

But their performance in League One is the key factor that determines where they are in [-].

Tears downgrade?Difficult relegation?Or a strong upgrade?

These are all possible.

According to Notts County's current level of investment, League Two can spend tens of millions of pounds to operate the transfer. Can such a team not continue to buy reinforcements at the end of the season?

Can such a team be relegated in League One?

Obviously, downgrading is out of the question!
Many experts say that Notts County's lineup can be relegated in League One. If Wei Xun continues to spend money in the transfer market in the summer, Notts County will become a team in League One next season. Upgrade hot.

According to this logic, in 5, Notts County was already a Premier League team. By then, will the stadium with [-] people still look big?
The attendance rate of Premier League clubs is basically above 90.00%. Even those with a small number of seats are limited by the capacity of the stadium.

As long as Notts County can gain a firm foothold in the Premier League, even if the new stadium cannot be guaranteed to be full, at least there will be no embarrassing situation of empty stadiums.

The construction of a new stadium in Notts County is really not a joke.

This is the foresight of the Notts County club executives, as well as their clear understanding of their own strength and players. The performance of the Notts County players on the field gave Wei Xun and Marotta the confidence to build a new stadium. He and League One are just passers-by, and the Premier League is their stage.

Ps: Good night everyone.
