King's Landing Nottingham

Chapter 51 Ocean Telephone
Chapter 52 Ocean Telephone

Notts County, who once again embarked on an away trip, came to Reading in Berkshire, southeastern England.

Reading is not far from Nottingham, so Guardiola and his players arrived in Reading the morning before the game.

After a night's rest in the hotel, they are training on the field for the last time before the game at Reading's home stadium, Madejski Stadium.

This is a new stadium named after the current chairman of Reading.Mr. Madejski, who started out with second-hand cars, took over the Reading club in 1990.With a total asset of just over 3 million pounds, he has invested 11 million pounds in Reading for 2600 years.

Three years ago, the new stadium he started to build was finally completed, and the new stadium, which can accommodate 5000 people, was finally named after him.

The secret of Mr. Madejski being able to support the team for 2600 years at a cost of 11 million pounds is obviously not as simple as saving money and selling tickets.His vision is very long-term, and he spent early on the establishment of a new Reading Youth Academy for Reading, which specializes in discovering local talents in England. This is his greatest reliance and strong capital for the revival of Reading.

The Reading team has worked hard for 140 years and has also won a heavyweight championship. The West Mode Cup has disappeared in the long history.And the joke that the Reading team is most familiar to fans of later generations can be traced back to a stadium accident five years later.

In October 2006, in Chelsea's away game against Reading, only 10 seconds into the game, Reading's No. 30 player Hunter hit Cech's head with his leg when Cech fell to the ground to save him.As a result, Hunter's kick hit Cech's head, and the latter fell to the ground immediately, and even fainted.

Cech underwent more than three hours of surgery after the game. Doctors implanted two metal plates in Cech's skull to relieve pressure on the brain at the fracture site.In the end, Cech recuperated for more than half a year due to a skull fracture.

Since then, Cech has made sure to wear a helmet when he plays.The helmet is made of soft material, and part of it is filled with sponge to protect the head.The helmet covers the ears, but has a small hole on both sides, so Cech's hearing will not be affected.

Guardiola naturally does not know the story between Reading and Cech, he is arranging the training of the players step by step.

He is very dissatisfied with the quality of the turf at Reading's home court. It is full of potholes, and some places are filled with fine sand. If you step on the pits without paying attention, there is a risk of injury.

"Shet, what the hell is this place!" Guardiola kicked in dissatisfaction, but a layer of fine sand was raised.

"Josep, Franck Ribery said that there was a concert here last night..." Javier appeared at the right time to solve the boss's problems.

"How did he know?"

"Have you forgotten, Josep, you gave him a special note, this guy came to Reading a day earlier than us, and watched the concert with the handsome granddaughter Christina..."

"Stefan...", Guardiola called the old Mertesacker who was dealing with the training facility not far away.

"Starting from today's game, Ribery's daily training volume will be raised for me! To save him from fooling around..."

"No problem... Josep!"

……

On September 2001, 9, the long-lost weather made the Madejski Stadium crowded with people. There were still 15 minutes before the start of the game, and the late fans were still actively looking for their seats.

"Guys, everyone was in good condition on the training ground yesterday. Eric and Mark will tell you about the specific requirements for today's game. Now let's hear what Wei has to say to everyone..."

"Oh, Mr. Chairman, Mr. Chairman is back?" Franck Ribery was the first to rush over. He was wearing only one slipper, his jersey was worn backwards, and his shorts had not been pulled up.

"Don't get excited, it's just on the phone, it's the morning in San Francisco," Guardiola turned his phone to the loudest and placed it on the table in the center of the locker room.

George Grant, Franck Ribery, Mertesacker and others surrounded him first, followed by other players, forming a small circle next to Guardiola's mobile phone.

"Mr.president……"

"Hey, boss..."

"Boss, are you there..."

Wei Xun on the other end of the phone smiled happily when he heard these familiar voices. Anyway, he didn't know what to do. Why don't he just make an ocean phone call and talk to the boys about Reading, lest they get hurt accidentally, they all It's my baby.

"Guys, I'm here, I'm here..."

The moment Wei Xun's voice came from Guardiola's mobile phone, Ribery grabbed George Grant's neck and shook him back and forth a few times, "It's the voice of the boss! It's the boss!"

"Frank, let go, I know, I know..." George Grant struggled to break free from Ribery's hands, panting heavily.

"Guys, I heard that you are going to play Reading today. I have nothing to say about the game. Coach Josep and Coach Mark are more professional than me."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

"Don't laugh, I guess you should all gather around and listen to me now, right? Then I'll get right to the point, Frank, please listen carefully..."

"Yes, boss!"

"Reading's style of play is relatively fierce, and sometimes you can't stop and stop your feet, but everyone must control your emotions. There are more young people on the opposite side, and you must restrain each other. In addition, several players headed by Frank Personally, you know who I'm talking about, don't play tricks, pass the ball as soon as you can, don't stick the ball. My main concern is that you will get hurt, but when it's time to break through, you still have to break through firmly. Even when you are human, you must be bold enough to surpass others, just remember one thing, don't get hurt!"

"I know boss!"

"Guaranteed to complete the task!" George Grant jumped and replied. Just now he withdrew to take a deep breath, but when he recovered, he found that his place was gone, and he couldn't get in when he tried to squeeze in.

"Okay, Josep, I'll leave the rest of the time to you, everyone, come on!"

"Notts County..."

"attack!!!"

"Okay, okay, let's hurry up and make the final preparations, it's time to line up and enter the arena...".

Guardiola took back his mobile phone and reminded Eric and Mark to take the players to prepare, while he walked to the foot of the locker room and whispered to Wei Xun.

"Josep, Brother Tai and I are not here recently, you are helping with the club's affairs, thank you for your hard work."

"The club is running very smoothly, and it doesn't take me too much energy. Haha, is it going smoothly in the United States?"

"It's not bad, it's much better than we expected. After the transfer window opens in the middle of the season, the funds have been prepared. During this time, you can see what positions the team needs to fill. I will find good ones for you, and I will guarantee them in the next few days." Join the team before the start of half the season."

"Oh, God, it seems that our Notts County has really become a local tyrant this time!"

"Really, 24K pure soil!"

"By the way, Wei, didn't you tell Huang Yingying when you went to the United States? She has been looking for you several times recently, and she looks very anxious. Call her back when you have time."

"Did you tell her where I was?"

"No, Wei, didn't you say that you have to keep it a secret from your wife and children? Of course I can't say it!" Guardiola straightened his hair, secretly proud of himself.

"Warigood, Josep, I see, thank you, my good coach! My good brother!"

How could Wei Xun not understand the meaning of Guardiola's words, so he quickly praised Guardiola a few words.

"Wei, the game is about to start, I'm going to prepare for the game first!"

"Josep, I am here waiting for your good news!"

Wei Xun who hung up the phone felt a little uncomfortable. The second floor of this double-decker bus seemed to be reserved by him. Up to now, there was no one there. Occasionally, someone poked his head out on the steps, and then retracted after a while. up.

Inadvertently, Wei Xun seemed to have thought of some good idea, and he sent a message to the headhunting company hired by Notts County in England:
"Notts County officially recruits 2 online text commentators, the treatment is favorable, and the specific interview..."

Although it is not possible to engage in video broadcasting, it would be good to have a text live broadcast platform on Notts County's official website.When you can’t go to the scene or use the radio and TV inconveniently, it’s also a good idea to take out your mobile phone to watch the text live broadcast and fight with the team you support.

Hey, Wei Xun, this guy, once again elevates his personal affairs to the height of serving all fans, it's really shameless...
