reborn football boss

Chapter 39
The Middlesbrough players walked off the pitch in a daze. They never expected that this easy game that they thought would be a sure thing, ended up with such a hopeless result. They really created a history that is almost shameful. .

It is not uncommon for a Premier League team to be knocked out by a lower league team in the English Cup, but there are a few times every season, and no one will make a fuss.

After all, many Premier League teams did not pay much attention to the League Cup in the first few rounds of knockout rounds. It is understandable that they will strategically give up the Cup due to factors such as the schedule or emphasis.

But the problem now is that Middlesbrough was bloodbathed by a League Two team, and looking at Middlesbrough's starting lineup, it is almost the same as the league's starting lineup, and it doesn't look like a strategic abandonment at all. It's unbelievable.

The result was so shocking and unacceptable that the League Cup match immediately became the most popular event in British football. Notts County suddenly entered the sight of all fans from an unknown League Two team. Everyone was shocked I found out that there is another such strong team in League Two. Could it be that League Two is already so competitive?

But looking at the performance of other League Two teams in the second round of the League Cup, I found that Notts County’s strong performance is unique, and it may not happen once in ten years or down.

Those fans who are in the middle of the Premier League and value the League Cup team are a little worried that the team will encounter this very passionate League Two team in the third round draw, which may be more exciting than encountering a Premier League team. They worry.

Losing to a Premier League team such as Manchester United, Arsenal and Liverpool is not a shame, but if you lose to the second division like Middlesbrough, and it is a disgraceful loss of [-]-[-], the fans will not be able to accept it if you think about it. Instead of this, it is better to avoid it far away.

During the press conference after the game, McLaren was overwhelmed by the questions from the reporters. During the entire conference, he kept a dark face and said nothing. No matter how difficult the reporters were, he just shook his head and refused to attend the conference. There will always be a ticket, and I will not speak to the head office when I come, right?
Loew answered the reporters' questions with a happy face. The victor's attitude was in stark contrast to McLaren's decadence.

"Now, actually I think the quality of this game is a good thing for Middlesbrough because Middlesbrough can really focus on the league, they've had such a bad league record and now they're really paying off. I wish!" Love's teasing words made McLaren feel ashamed.

After the team returned to the club, David directly took out a bonus of 50 pounds, which is definitely not a small amount. Even a Premier League team would find it difficult to dismiss such a high winning bonus.

The team's big victory has made the players elated, and the high bonus has made the players shout long live. They are already looking forward to winning the League Cup. With the generosity of Chairman David, I am afraid that everyone will get a lot of money A bonus, after all nobody doesn't like sterling.

What this victory brings to the team is not only to advance to the next round of the League Cup, both the popularity of the team and the cohesion of the team have been greatly improved. Many companies have directly found the club who wants to become a club. Sponsors can see it.

Originally, David did not put much effort into the commercial development of the club, because he felt that the platform of League Two is too small. When the team upgrades to the Premier League and becomes a strong team, it will not be too late to develop business on a large scale, but Now that the company has taken the initiative to come to the door, Notts County has no reason to push the money out.

So David reorganized the business department and set up a large structure, but it was only a structure, and it will be filled in when the team has the conditions for business development.

Before the start of the seventh round of the English League Two, David quickly finalized several sponsors of the club. Although the other party is not a well-known international company and does not have much sponsorship fees, it is a good start.

What made David feel funny was that just after teaching McLaren to be a man, Middlesbrough sent a fax asking if Villa, a Spanish player, could transfer.

Villa has always been the team's third striker, behind Hubner and Di Natale. Because of Di Natale's injury, he got more chances to play, but in David's mind, The importance of Villa is far more than the two people in front of him.

Cucurbit, who started the League Cup this time, lived up to the expectations of David and Loew. He scored a hat-trick in the first half and became the biggest contributor to the team's incredible victory.

In this way, it is not surprising that Middlesbrough can take a fancy to Villa.

David took the fax from the beautiful secretary, glanced at it roughly, and threw it directly into the wastebasket, without even replying to the other party.

After this fiasco, Middlesbrough has been under criticism from fans and the media. They are in dire straits every day. They are thinking about whether to make some news to divert the attention of the fans and the media. Impressed by the outstanding performance of Notts County striker Villa, he simply bought this player. It is nothing more than spending some money, which can not only transfer pressure, but also attack opponents.

Look, what if you win us?You are still a League Two team. We just hooked our fingers and bought your players. Isn’t it easy to play you to death?
Still sending faxes with a domineering attitude, Middlesbrough returned to that defiant state.

But two days later, they had not received a reply from Notts County. Some anxiously, they sent a fax again, this time directly making an offer, asking for 200 million pounds to buy Villa.

David sneered, and threw it into the trash can again.

Just want to buy Notts County's future head striker for 200 million?
Is it true that Notts County has never seen money?

Still ignore it, David is not afraid that Middlesbrough will contact Villa in private, as long as Villa is not caught in the door, he will not go to a team like Middlesbrough that was beaten into a dog by Notts County .

McLaren's life is worse than death these days. He originally thought that he would be able to get rid of this embarrassing situation after announcing the transfer of Villa easily. You must know that every day there are fans blocking the door of the club and calling him The days after class are not easy.

But after waiting for a few days, he still didn't get a reply from Notts County. He was pressed by the fans and the media. In an interview, he could only make public the matter of buying Villa, so as to transfer the pressure.
