King's Landing Nottingham

Chapter 84

Chapter 85 The FA

At the press conference after the game, the referee of the game, Hellett, unexpectedly appeared in front of the media. He spoke plausibly to the camera of the reporter:

"My colleagues and I kept telling ourselves to keep calm during the game, but obviously, we didn't do that."

"As the referee, I have to admit that I was not at peace in my heart. When I returned to the locker room, I realized that I had done such a controversial thing today. Within two hours, I never A fair and respected referee has become the biggest fool in international football. Here, I want to apologize to the fans and media reporters. I'm sorry..."

Ran and egg.

Escorted by Stoke's home security, Helett and his refereeing team were put on a plane to London, where rotten eggs and rotten vegetables were thrown at the car by emotional Notts County fans. Ye, to express their dissatisfaction.

The press conference in the stadium did not end.

Stoke coach Guyon Tordasson also expressed his point of view. He believes, "The joint efforts of all Stoke players is the biggest reason for the victory of this game. The referee Mr. Helleter's penalty is very fair. Stoke There is no money exchange between Tok and the referee, this victory is well deserved by the Stoke people!"

Notts County coach Pep Guardiola has been immune to the shamelessness of Guyon Toldasson. He only commented on the referee's performance after the game: "In my player football career and short coaching career, Mr Hullett is the worst referee I've ever seen, bar none."

Notts County supporters were outraged by a profound sense of injustice, and that anger spread beyond the turf of the Britannia Stadium into the lives of the fans.

The number of letters in the FA public mailbox has risen by three digits in just one day, and the FA's usually deserted fans' office and the customer service of the referee committee have followed the instructions from above and unplugged the telephone line on the landline. They have been unable to cope with the anger of the fans.

The referee Helett's performance was so poor that fans of other teams began to complain about Notts County.

That night, Notts County chairman Wei Xun and general manager Marotta stayed up late in the club office to sort out materials, while Peter Walker and Elena of the "Notts County Team" were also actively writing manuscripts, and "Sun" reporter Pa Tricia and James White, a reporter from the Nottingham Post, also received part of the information from Notts County officials and were ready to splash ink.

Most importantly, Notts County seems to be for real this time!

They actually reported the case to Nottingham local police...

The Nottingham City Police Department actually filed a case. The police station sent someone to copy all the information, and each person involved took notes, and then went to Stoke on Trent to investigate and collect evidence. All procedures were well-organized. Push forward, meticulous.

The Notts County Club also published all the investigation progress of the police station in the newspaper, killing the FA is Wei Xun's biggest goal.

Even the "Nottingham Evening News", which has been smearing Notts County towards Nottingham Forest, is standing in the camp of Notts County this time.

A headline "The Notts County Tragedy?Who can guarantee that the next victim will not be yourself" has aroused strong resonance in the football circle, and the signed author is Ashley Wall, a cutting-edge football commentator from Nottingham.

This report has aroused strong concern from low-level clubs and caused them to panic.

This kind of thing has not happened to me once or twice, and every time I encounter a big club, it is not always dead.These referees are just waiting to get off work on time and end the game.

The small and medium-sized clubs are fighting against each other this time. The FA has made a lot of mistakes.

Just as Wei Xun and Marotta drove to London, a small-scale symposium was being held within the FA to discuss countermeasures for the incident.

Although he has resigned, the era of Graham Kelly is far from over. Crozier has just taken over the FA for two years, but he has been overwhelmed by the messy affairs of the FA.

The organizational structure of the FA is neither soft nor flexible.

On the contrary, the culture and mindset of the FA is as uncomfortable as the cautious and rigid English government.

At the end of the last century, the frequent turnover of the general manager and the secretary-general plunged the FA into a pool of stagnant water, and even made a joke about Betts buying Chelsea for one pound.

For the few committee members and Football Association officials sitting here, it is good to have only six meetings a year, starting in the morning and ending at noon. Anyway, it is difficult for them to discuss any meaningful briefings. I really like appropriating proposals approved elsewhere.

But since Notts County was bought by the Chinese, this is already the second meeting they have held...

Crozier opened his head, and no one spoke again.

However, in the absence of the leader of the Referee Disciplinary Committee, Tony Price took the initiative to ask for a solution and was willing to take the main responsibility:
First, the referee Hleb will not be able to offend any game held by the FA within two years, and he must publish an apology to Notts County in the newspaper;
Second, the referee disciplinary committee officially apologized to Notts County and stated that such incidents will not happen again in the future;
Third, at some level, give Notts County some convenience, such as the cup draw?

Tony Price's solution has been unanimously affirmed by the heads of the FA present, so the solution is just given?

Things like Hellett have happened before, and more than once, but there was no public opinion guidance in the past, and the fans who bought tickets to watch the game were not as well-informed as they are now, and every time it was not a major event Little things resolved?

The officials of the Football Association never thought that these fans who bought tickets to watch the game would ride on their heads so suddenly one day.

Parking a large truck at the entrance of the Football Association blocked the small road, and the cleaning company also refused to come to work. Some fans who are closer to them have hung up protest banners opposite the Football Association, and there are two people from time to time. Throwing a few rotten eggs and expired food at the gate of the Football Association, forcing them to come out to apologize and admit punishment, this is really the first time the Football Association has been established for so many years.

Just for such a "black whistle", what are you doing?
Regardless of whether you want to or not, Wei Xun and Marotta are here anyway, and their purpose is to come to the disgusting and disgusting officials of the FA.

In later reports, Lancaster Gate, where the FA is located, is a world made up of maze-like corridors and dull conference rooms: meetings and apologies are the two things they do most often.

The old furnishings, shabby cards and the prosperity of the Premier League in later generations are not at all compatible...

I don't know how the FA always arranges. Jonathan Lawrence, the vice chairman of the FA committee, received Marotta; Stanley Davis, the chairman of the FA council, received Wei Xun.

The meeting did not last long, and it will end at meal time. Wei Xun and Marotta met. The two sides talked about similar things, and the results they gave were the same. Marotta said that the result was acceptable. , Wei Xun has no intention of continuing to make trouble.

Notts County didn't want to make a big deal about this matter, so it would be good to have an explanation.A rematch is impossible, but it is true to get VAR out earlier.

Wei Xun rejected Tony Price's request for a dinner party. At this juncture, too much contact with Football Association officials is not conducive to Notts County's long-standing image, and it does not conform to Wei Xun's usual style.

After getting the handling opinion letter stamped with the FA's big red stamp, Wei Xun still hasn't met Tony Price's immediate boss: this character who has never seen the end of the dragon has given Notts County black hands more than once Yes, I really want to meet this man and see how divine he really is.

Wei Xun left very simply, perhaps because he had a good chat with Stanley Davis, and Wei Xun donated 20 pounds to the FA Council in his own name.

This can make Tony Price and Jonathan Lawrence on the side so greedy, the FA, poor!

Although Notts County is a small shrimp that can be slaughtered by them, this Wei Xun looks like a real thigh who spends money like water.

Thinking of this, both Jonathan Lawrence and Stanley Davis touched their pockets, "Well, Chairman Wei's business card is still there..."
