Chapter 10: We Were Raped (Part II)

Donn took Walker's words to heart and walked straight down the sidewalk into the press room. In addition to the cameras set up at the small press conference, there were not many people. The host was a little surprised that Don had come so early.

Don saw that his eyes were wrong, so he asked, "Did I come too early?" ”

"Yes, sir. At this time, most of the reporters were still interviewing the players in the mixed zone. ”

Don looked at the stand and sat down on the spot marked with his name, "Then I'll just wait here." ”

The moderator did not object. Don took the opportunity to take a closer look at the press conference. He knew that at least he would be here for half a year. Ah, what a wonderful thing it is to talk in front of so many media outlets, and then let those reporters turn what they say into lead......

But Don didn't have the heart to think about that now. He is still haunted by the team's loss to "force majeure".

He pondered like this, and before he knew it, there were more and more people in the press room, and the noise was getting louder and louder. When Don came back to his senses, he found that most of the reporters had already appeared in the room, but few of them were sitting in their seats, and they were standing together and chatting.

What are you talking about...... Talk about the game just now?

The position of the away team manager next to him is still empty. A flash of anger welled up in Don's heart. You bastard Rhodes, you have to wait for you if you win, the shelf is huge!

He tapped on the microphone, and there was an amplified knocking sound in the stereo, and the reporters present turned their heads to look at him.

"I'm announcing the official start of the press conference, so if you have anything you want to ask, just ask." Don completely left the host aside, wearing many hats himself.

The reporter didn't expect the head coach to be a quick temper, and they looked at the host. The host also felt that it was okay to let one party be interviewed first, so he shrugged: "You can start." ”

Only then did the reporters sit down one after another and raise their hands one by one to ask questions. Of course, the main concern is why the difference between the two halves is so huge.

"On this issue...... Very simple. At half-time I called a bunch of fans to the dressing room. Don answered the question briefly. The pot exploded below.

Where the locker room is, the journalists are well aware. This mysterious place is completely closed to journalists, and many reporters sharpen their heads to find out the secrets of a team's dressing room, but they can't do it. Tony; Don let the fans swagger into the locker room!

For a while, countless hands were raised, and the scene became a little uncontrollable. The host didn't know what to do, so many reporters asked for questions, who to call?

It was Don who helped him out of the siege and slapped him on the table. With a bang, the scene fell silent.

Don said to the reporter below with a straight face: "I know what you want to ask. Maybe the locker room is sacred in everyone's eyes, but not in my eyes. It's as simple as that. I refused to answer any more questions about the locker room. You want to find out what is going on, go to the fans yourself. Next question. He looked at his watch impatiently, and it had been ten minutes, Glenn; Reed hasn't come yet. Super coaches are different, the shelves are very big. If I don't take the initiative, I'm afraid I'll still be waiting here like a fool.

The reporters looked at each other, and the coach didn't seem to have a good temper. There are very few coaches in the press world, and only big-name managers are qualified to do that. For example, Alex; Sir Alex Ferguson......

The venue was silent for a while, and Don thought that the reporters had no questions to ask, and got up to leave. At this time, someone raised his hand: "Wait, Tony; Coach Donn! I'm Pierce, a reporter for the Nottingham Evening Post; Bruce, we had two goals disallowed in the second half, and I'd like to hear your thoughts on that. A white young man with gold-rimmed glasses stood up and asked.

When Donne saw this man, he thought of Glenn; Rod, he asked angrily, "What do you want to hear?" I did the best tactical set-up, I put on the best players and I thought I could get a good win. But when you find that you can't fight some 'force majeure' no matter how hard you try, you can understand how I feel right now. After a pause, he looked at the poor young man who was speechless by himself, who seemed to be about his own age. Maybe it's a trainee reporter for a newspaper......

"What do you think of me, you ask? My opinion is: we were forced by the referee. ”

There was a burst of boos and heckling from below. Someone asked loudly: "Mr. Manager, do you mean 'strong annihilation'?" ”

Don nodded affirmatively: "That's right, strong annihilation." It is not 'offensive', nor is it 'encroachment', 'seizure', 'insult'. It's 'strong annihilation'! Two goals that are no problem can be disallowed, isn't that a forcible one? ”

The host reminded him in a low voice: "Coach Don, I think you know what the consequences of saying this will bring you......"

Tang En gave him a blank look: "Whatever." Then he pointed to the excited reporters and said, "You just write like that, just as you are." I don't care! Goodbye, gentlemen! ”

He put down the microphone and turned to walk off the stage, just as Rhodes came out from behind the billboard. Seeing this kid's face full of red light, it was obvious that he had already celebrated the victory in the locker room.

Don took the initiative to reach out and shook hands with Rod under the reporter's flash.

"Congratulations, but you'd better pray that your team doesn't get relegated." He whispered, then turned to leave. Rod looked at Donn's back in surprise, thinking that he had misheard, it was the first time he had seen such a graceless opponent. But how did he know that Donn was just telling the truth, because at the end of the season, his West Ham United were really relegated...... Although West Ham ended up spreing to pick up points in the second half of the season and ended up with 41 points, it didn't help. At that time, I wonder if Rod would have thought that it was Donn's vicious curse that caused his team to get such a high score and be relegated......

※※※

Tang Encai didn't care about the noisy press conference scene behind him and the surprised Rod, he was in a bad mood now. Walking back to the locker room, he found everyone waiting for him. Standing at the door, he glanced at it, and everyone was the same as him, and their faces were very ugly.

That's not good, he still has to rely on this team to win to eat. He hurriedly showed a bright smile: "Don't take this matter to heart, you guys did a good job." The players' expressions remained unchanged, "although it was really unpleasant to lose the game...... But it can't be helped. Don shrugged, he thought it was too unconvincing, because he didn't believe it would make people feel better. So he took a deep breath and said loudly, "Well, if you lose the game, you lose, whatever the reason." The sad face can't let that damn referee change the score. The most important thing is the next game, if we lose here, we have to get it back elsewhere! Disband! ”

※※※

The players are back on the bus. There were also many Forest fans around the parking lot, cheering on the team's excellent performance in the second half. After the players started enjoying the game, many people had smiles on their faces. Even Donn, who was standing outside the car, didn't get the slightest boo. He didn't see Michael and them in the crowd either, and he felt pity at the thought of not being able to drink the wine he had treated.

The key is not that meal, how much can a meal cost? Donn is now the head coach, and although he is still an agent, his salary is enough to drink countless meals. He actually wanted to see Michael's face when he invited him to drink.

Now it's okay, I can't drink wine, and that wonderful expression is naturally gone.

When he came back to his senses, he suddenly noticed that there were two people missing from the car. Two assistant coaches. Des; Walker and Ian; Boyd.

Bowyer is unfamiliar, but Walker is a very disciplined person, and there is no way that he will not be able to come out by now.

After talking to the driver, he decided to go back and look for it.

※※※

Forest's dressing room is small, but it can be described as empty for just two people at the moment.

Bowyer leaned against the wall, looked at his colleague in front of him, and said nothing. Instead, Walker looked furious, clenched his fists and glared at the other party.

The two looked at each other for a long time, and Bowyer finally surrendered first: "You told me to stay just to make us stare at us?" If it's okay, I'll go first......"

As soon as he got up, Walker pounced on him and pressed him back.

"The one I like, Ian; Where did Bowyer go? The one I adore, Ian; Where did Bowyer go? Ian, who fought alongside me; Where did Bowyer go? Walker yelled at Bowyer like a hair dryer.

Bowyer's face was calm: "I'm sorry, Des. I don't think I understand what you're talking about. ”

"Don't play dumb! Where were you when the team was a mess? Where were you when the team and I needed you? Don't think I don't know what's going on in your heart? You've been serving the team for so many years, and your feelings for the team have also deteriorated this day?! ”

In the face of Walker's fury, Bowyer remained silent.

Walker vented his anger, only to find that Bowyer was unresponsive like a dead man. Walker suddenly didn't know what to say next, using team accolades to inspire him? He has won a lot more honors than himself, what wind and waves have he not seen? Maybe he should be jealous of Donn, after all, he is the veteran of the team, the hero, and he will think that Hart's position should belong to him. He couldn't understand what Bowyer was doing, but everyone has the freedom and power to choose, doesn't he?

He sighed suddenly, let go of his grip on Bowyer's collar, and walked out with his head down.

Just walked out, only to see Tony with his ear against the wall; Dawn. He was startled and opened his mouth to say hello, but luckily Don was quick and covered his mouth. Then he pointed to the locker room and motioned for him to look.

Walker turned, and through the half-hidden crack in the door, the two saw Bowyer in the locker room bending down to pick up a red scarf from under the locker cabinet. He looked back at Don a little strangely, and Don didn't say anything, just motioned for him to continue looking.

That red scarf was also thrown down by Nottingham Forest fans, but it was definitely not the one that Donn picked up for Walker. It was forgotten in a corner, and only Bowyer found it.

Walker watched as Bowyer picked up the scarf and carefully dusted off it. Then he held it up like Dawson and looked at it in the light. Don patted Walker lightly and signaled that it was time for him to get into the car.

The two of them quietly walked back.

"Des, accompany me to Burns' bar for a drink in the evening, I'll have a treat."

"Good idea, but why do you suddenly like to drink and smoke again? Ah, I see! I forgot to thank God, although the former Tony; Don doesn't smoke or drink, and he's humble and polite, but I still like Tony now! ”
