Chapter 45: Sean "Lamb"

"...Sometimes, I actually admire Tony Clark's football, because when the team is attacking, it's like mercury puddles. It's really beautiful. I know that talking about a successor like this is very annoying...but Out of my love for Leeds City, I have to say that Tony Clark chose the wrong team. If Leeds City were a team in the middle of the Premier League ranking, I would support his football 100%. A distinctive style of playing that is pleasing to the eye. But the question is, Leeds is a relegation team. Under such circumstances, should we give priority to scoring points and ensure that we can stay in the Premier League first?"
On the TV screen, an elderly man with gray hair was talking to the camera, and a line of subtitles appeared next to him:
Lauren Gurry, former Leeds City Meritorious Coach
Then the screen switched, a middle-aged male host appeared in front of the camera with a smile and said: "Recently, Lauren Gurry, who is at home, was interviewed by this station. In addition to sharing his leisure time at home with our reporter In addition, he also talked about the most interesting prospect of Leeds City’s relegation. In his words, he criticized Tony Clark’s persistent tactics..."
A group of people in the "White Rose" bar were sitting around and discussing enthusiastically under the TV hanging from the ceiling.
"Guys, listen to me, listen to me!" A middle-aged man raised his tattooed arms and yelled loudly, "Our return to the North Stand does not mean that we bow to the club. Quite the contrary. This time I went back to express our dissatisfaction in front of the club. Because we want to welcome Sean Barnett home with the warmest cheers. The more enthusiastic we are for Barnett, the rostrum and VIP box The more the faces of those people can't hold it!"
"Levin was right!" The other person stood up and echoed, "And we only return to the stands for this game, and not every game in the future. When this game is over, what should we do? Do. Continue to vacate the white stands and express our attitude to the club! How about? Consider this suggestion seriously. We can make Barnett feel the warmth of coming home with applause and singing..."
"But isn't this cheering for our opponent? Sean Barnett is no longer a Leeds player. He returned to Flanders on behalf of the North London Rangers. He is our enemy and is here to defeat us. Yes. The North London Rangers are now competing for the Champions League qualification. I don't think this will be a warm-hearted match." Some people objected.
"Of course, of course. We just welcome Barnett home, and we won't offer any applause or cheers for the Londoners." The man at the beginning explained.
"Then then? What about after we welcome Barnett? What do you plan to do in the next game time? Are you dumbfounded in the stands?" The opponent continued to ask questions. "What are we going to do? Are we cheering for Leeds? Or booing? Or...doing nothing? But no matter which one, I think about it, and I think this is too strange. I did it. For so many years, the fans have never watched such a strange game... Sorry Levin, I am not targeting you, I just can’t imagine the significance of returning to the North Stand under such circumstances.

Seeing that Levin couldn't persuade his companions, he could only cast his eyes on David Miller who was sitting in the lead: "David, for you, what is your opinion?"
When he said this, everyone present turned their eyes to David Miller.
With all eyes in sight, David did not speak immediately, but fell into contemplation.
The others didn't speak either, just waiting patiently for their leader to make a decision.
Although they usually joked about David's bad relationship with his son and teased him, they were never vague when talking about business.
It took about half a minute before David said: "The'White Rose' is a whole. Although we have been split several times in the past few months, this has become more important as a whole. So I declare first. No matter what the final result is, I hope everyone will advance and retreat together. Don’t act like before, no matter what the reason is.

What he said was very serious.
Everyone nodded solemnly and agreed: "Of course, we are a whole."
"Relax, David. I support the final decision 100%, even if it is not what I wanted."
"me too."
"same!"
...
After everyone expressed their opinions, David Miller patted the table with his hands: "Let’s go and welcome Sean Barnett back to Flanders. Then he booed on the 13th minute of the game. Express our dissatisfaction to the capitalists on the podium. For this, we need to make some banners, not only to welcome Barnett home, but also to demonstrate to the club."
As soon as David Miller said this, the two factions who were still in dispute looked at each other and both accepted it.
This is indeed a more appropriate approach and successfully resolved the contradiction between the two sides.
"agree!"
"I agree!"
"No comment!"
"Just do it!"
Everyone once again stated that this matter was finalized.
"Well, everyone should be ready to go. It will take time to make the banner." David Miller announced the end of the meeting.
The companions drank all the beer in their glasses, then put down their glasses, got up and left.
Soon David Miller was the only one left beside these tables.
Then he heard a voice coming from behind: "David, I have always had a question, can you help me answer it?"
David Milan turned around and saw a thin, silver-haired old man walking downstairs.
Bar owner Leo White.
"Of course, old White. What's your question?"
The old man came downstairs, his body leaning on the bar counter, his chest rising and falling violently, as if he would consume all his strength in just a few steps.
After he got his breath well, he looked at David Miller who turned to look at him and asked: "If... I mean if, if Leeds finally succeeds in relegation. You will continue to use the North Stand next season. Is it free?"
Faced with this question raised by Old White, David Miller did not know how to answer, and he was silent.
"Or, in fact, are you faintly expecting the team to be relegated?" the boss asked again.
This time David Miller quickly defended: "No, absolutely not. Old White, you can't guess us like that..."
"If the team is not downgraded, how can it prove that you are right?" White did not care about David's defense, but continued to ask.
This time, David Miller did not make any more excuses, his mouth opened and no sound came out.
In the end, under White's gaze, David Miller could only escape.

"... A number of Leeds City fan organizations announced that they will return to the North Stand in the Leeds City home game against the North London Rangers. It is reported that this move is to welcome Sean Barnett back to Flanders... "
Hu Lai listened to the news broadcast from the car radio and said to Yong Jun: "This Sean Barnett has a high status in the hearts of Leeds fans..."
"Of course, Leeds can be successful in the Super League, but he played a big role. In the Super League season, he scored 21 goals and six assists. It was voted by Leeds City fans that season. The most popular player." Yong Jun said while driving. "Before Pete Williams, he was the most expected genius on the team."
Hu Lai nodded, not surprised.
A player with such a good performance, or a genius he cultivated, is of course easier to gain the love of local fans.
After all, there is a local household registration book, so the blood is more pure...
Outsiders want to earn the same respect, they need to put in more effort.
This is common in any team.
After all, football clubs are essentially the carriers of community culture and regional culture.
Leaving the community area is like a tree without water or root. Regional identity is naturally one of the most important emotional bonds in the team.
His Hulai was able to get the acceptance and love of the fans so quickly in Shining Star. In addition to his good performance, it has a lot to do with being an Antonian himself.
So Hu Lai didn't feel that there was anything wrong with the treatment of Sean Barnett.
But Uncle Yong said: "But I personally think that these fans' approach is questionable. At the very least, they may make the players who are currently playing for Leeds unhappy."
"It's normal to welcome a player of past merits back home, right?"
Hu Lai didn't think there was any problem, because this thing is very common in the football world, and even passed as a good story.
"If these fans have not vacated the North Stand before then, it is really normal. But they refused to go to watch the game before, and now they return to the North Stand to welcome Sean Barnett. Do you think other Leeds City players will What do you think?" Yong Jun asked back. "Do you think that those of us who are playing in Leeds are not as good as someone who has already left? Even if Sean Barnett made great contributions to the team's overtaking. But now in the team, Isn't it true that no one has made a contribution to the team's surpass?"
Hu Lai was stunned, this was indeed an issue he hadn't considered before.

Sean Barnett walked out of the training ground and was surrounded by reporters: "Barnett, the opponent of the North London Rangers in the next round of the league is Leeds, what do you think?"
The tall and tall Barnett smiled slightly: "I'm very happy. To be able to return to Flanders, honestly I can't wait any longer."
"You have played in Leeds for six years, do you still have many friends there?"
"Yes, I still miss the time I played in Leeds." The smile on Sean Barnett's face continued.
"The North London Rangers are at an important stage in the fight for Champions League qualification. At the same time, your old team is also fighting for relegation. Does this make you feel distressed?"
Barnett shook his head: "I am now a North London Rangers player, of course I will do my best for the current team. Of course, I will not celebrate after scoring."
※※※
"...I won't celebrate after scoring a goal."
Sean Barnett on the TV said with a smile.
Someone sighed in front of the TV, UU reading www.uukanshu. com murmured: "It didn't need to be like this..."
David Miller did not pay attention to the content on the TV. He was asking other companions: "Are the banners ready?"
"It's done." Levin showed him.
One is to say hello to Sean Barnett: "Welcome home, Sean'Lamb'!"
The other one pointed the finger at the club management: "He should have become our hero!"
"This second banner, we are going to hang it out after Sean scores." Levin introduced to David Miller.
Although Sean Barnett said he would not celebrate after scoring a goal, fans will use this to criticize the club management.
Question the high-ranking officials: such an excellent player originally belonged to Leeds City, but you sold him for 25 million pounds. Now I ask you not to regret it!
