Volume 7 Heart of the Lion King Chapter 85 It has nothing to do with the forest

After the "death threats" case, the Nottingham police responded to Evan. Dogety's demands were strengthened against himself, as well as for Allen. Adams' Bodyguard. He himself became the laughing stock of the whole of European football - the president of the club who was sent a "death threat" notice by his own fans is one of the few in the history of European football.

Then he didn't get any strange letters with bullets, blades, or white powder in the envelopes. But his and Allen's offices have been flooded with denunciation letters from angry fans.

Evan. Doggetty's open letter completely angered the fans.

What is called "It's time to forget Tony." Don's up"? What does it mean to "it's time for a new period of glory"?

This guy doesn't understand anything. Tony has brought us so much glory, and most importantly, so many good memories, can it be said that we can forget it? Especially since it's only been more than two months, you say that you want to start a new journey, are you ruthless and unrighteous when everyone is concerned? Until more than a decade later, there are still people who keep recalling Brian. Clough, then we have reason to believe that even for the past twenty years, Tony. Don will only be mentioned by us constantly!

And you, Evan. Mr. Dogetty. When you leave the chairmanship, how many people will remember you? No...... There may be many people who will remember you, but it must not be a "good memory".

In order to divert the attention of fans and vent those anger through another channel, Nottingham Forest are stepping up their moves in the transfer market. They have lost too much time due to the turmoil of some time ago. In the race against their main rivals, they fell in last place.

If their goal is to win the title this season, then the next 10 days will be in full swing – the Premier League kicks off on 19 August, and Nottingham Forest have a Community Shield to play before they win the treble last season, so they will face second-placed Arsenal in the league.

While Forest were still looking for the right new player, they lost another important player.

Nuri. Shahin's agent was in agreement with Bayern Munich, with Nottingham Forest agreeing to release him. The transfer deal will bring in £18 million for Forest FC.

The successive departures of Pepe and Shaheen seem to be a vivid scene of "Dynasty Away" in front of the eyes of Forest fans. And they also have reason to believe that such partings will be repeated frequently in the future.

August 5th, Victor. Moses moved to Middlesbrough for a fee of £8 million. In his five seasons at Nottingham Forest, he didn't play much, and more often than not, he was out on loan. Originally, he planned to stay in the team and wait for his chance, but the turmoil at the club in the past two months caused him to lose confidence in the team and decided to move away.

A day later, Nottingham Forest announced an "exciting" transfer news.

After painstaking negotiations, Nottingham Forest finally reached an agreement with Inter Milan to sign a deal with Inter Milan's leading striker last season, Balotelli, to join England's treble-winning side. The transfer fee is £35 million!

Mario. Balotelli (mario_balotelli), known as "Super Mario" in Italy. He is the best young player that Inter Milan has emerged in recent years, and is regarded as Inter Milan's hope for the next decade. However, due to the departure of Jose Mourinho, his relationship with new manager Gianfranco Zola has been bad. I've been making a transfer.

He had wanted to go to Jose Mourinho's Manchester United, and Manchester United did offer Balotelli an olive branch.

But Evan, who urgently needs to save his reputation in front of the fans. Dogetty suddenly intervened, complicating what was supposed to be a "you love me" transfer. In the end, Nottingham Forest overtook Manchester United with money, and the high price of 35 million pounds was the price that Manchester United was unwilling to pay. Inter Milan rejected Manchester United's offer of 24 million and accepted Nottingham Forest, so Balotelli could only accept the result of being "beaten and scattered" and "committed" to Nottingham Forest, which has not had a good reputation recently.

He didn't show that sentiment at the press conference. He also praised the team for winning the treble and claimed that it had always been his wish to join such a great team.

The addition of the Italian golden boy genius has somewhat eased the resentment of some fans against the club. Send it to Evan. Dogetty and Allen. Adams, cordially greeting their mother and wife with a significant decrease in fan protest letters.

In fact, as time goes by, such letters will only become less and less. Because after the start of the new season, fans will focus on the team's game, and few people are interested in settling with a shrunken turtle all day long. It's just Evan. Dogeti would do well to pray that the team's results will continue under Flores, and Tony. Donn's level, otherwise what awaits him must be a more violent storm.

With good grades, all problems are not called problems. Bad grades, no problems are also problems.

Donn is still keeping an eye on Nottingham Forest, and he can't do it if he doesn't, and Nottingham Forest's players are an important part of England's planned list.

In the Community Shield, he will be attending the new Wembley Stadium to see the performances of the English players on both sides.

While keeping an eye on this team, he tries not to let himself be overshadowed by Evan. Dogety's loser behavior and lashed out at the other party in the newspapers. Because if he does, he is clearly overstepping his authority and it is unfair to the team's new manager. He didn't want to interfere with the club's actions, and he reminded himself that he had nothing to do with the team anymore, from the moment he rejected Evan. Dogerty's second invitation.

Fortunately, the new season is about to begin, and he will be back to his busy work, and there is no time for him to think.

The fate of Nottingham Forest is the concern of Nottinghams.

One of his biggest headaches now is how to face George in his next international game. Wood.

He listened to Billy. Woods' old man called and said that Wood was upset with him now. If not handled well, this could become a trigger for a split national team. In Donne's plan, George. Wood is definitely the most important component, just like in the Forest team, and all his arrangements revolve around Wood.

If Wood doesn't cooperate because he has an opinion about himself, then he's in big trouble......

Before the Community Shield, Donn wanted to meet up with Wood and have a good conversation. However, he was rejected by Wood on the grounds that he "should concentrate on preparing for the Community Shield for now".

This made Don frown - could this be a bad omen?

※※※

The Community Shield is a test for new coach Flores, who must deliver a satisfactory answer or his future coaching career will not be in peace. You know, he's dealing with a group of discerning Nottingham Forest fans who, for the past decade, have been called Tony. Donn's guy has an appetite for the feeder.

Champions and victories are their tradition.

However, the protagonist of this game is not yet Flores.

When Donn appeared in the stands, the camera cameras were frequented, and the commentators and commentators were able to lean on him for the game.

"Watching Nottingham Forest from the stands, for Toney. Don En is afraid this is the first time, right? ”

"No, no. It's a feeling that is no stranger to him, and you have to know how many times he was sent off in the stands during his time at Forest...... Ha! ”

"George. Wood was solid, let's see Donne's expression...... Well, there is no expression at all......"

"Arsenal have scored! Beautiful coordination, four consecutive passes at a time, completely tore apart the Forest's defense! The broadcast footage was given to Don again, who was next to England assistant coach Dees. Walker said something. Ah, sorry, I thought about how he would react if he was down there......"

'Nottingham Forest equalised! Mitchel's header! A very typical Tony. Donn-style offensive ...... Ha, just as the camera was given to Don again, there was no joy on his face...... Ah, now he's England manager and has nothing to do with Nottingham Forest. Flores seems to have followed Donn's tactics for the sake of the team's stability......"

"It's quite normal. After all, he has only been in charge of the team for a few days, and he is not familiar with many things, so the safest way is to use the one that the team is most accustomed to. Chris Lac must have helped Flores a lot...... He's a fantastic assistant coach, said Toney. Donn approached him when he was forming a coaching team in England, but he turned him down...... Ah, the camera gives Donn another close-up! ”

……

After the game, a good do-good person made a very boring statistic, and in this game, which took a total of 94 minutes, the live TV broadcast was given to Tony sitting in the stands. Don gets eleven close-ups, and four more sweeps past him.

The game ended in victory for Arsenal, who had just undergone a huge personnel change, were able to put it together in the first half to show their quality for last season's treble. The score was 1-1 at half-time, with Forest's strength reflected in the fact that they had just been equalised by Arsenal less than five minutes into the scoresheet. At that moment, it seemed like Tony. Donn's Forest team is back - the momentum is still there.

But in the second half, the team was sleepwalking, and the team seemed to have lost their fighting spirit. Maybe it's because the recent training hasn't kept the players in shape, or maybe it's because everyone loses the heart to fight at the thought of what the club is doing. In short, in the face of Arsenal's attack, the Forest team performed lethargically.

In the end, Arsenal won the game with a score of 3:1 in the second half and won the first title of the new season.

The losing Foresters didn't seem to care about the outcome, their eyes wandering, they shook hands with their opponents, exchanged jerseys, and walked off the pitch with their heads down.

And in the stands, it was the unhappy Nottingham Forest fans who were gathering to greet Evan with a collective swearing. Dogetty and his "lackey" Allen. Adams.

Evan on the podium. Dogetty looked embarrassed with the Arsenal club president of the old man Pete. Hillwood shakes hands. Old Hillwood patted him lightly on the shoulder, saying something, perhaps comforting him......

In fact, Hillwood was reassuring Dogerty: "It's nothing, just lost a Community Shield." ”

Then, as he left the rostrum and walked out, he said to the people around him: "Nottingham Forest is finished." It's really worth celebrating, we have one less of our strongest competitors. ”

Then he grinned and left the stadium rostrum.

Evan. Dogetty stood still, staring at the court below with a cloudy look on his face, no one knowing what he was thinking.

Tony. Donn and Des. Walker stepped down from the stands and into the hall below to be stopped by a large number of media waiting there. Reporters have asked Donn to give his opinion on the game.

So Done's statement was very official-

'It was a good game, there is no doubt that Arsenal won the title. Walcott was in good form and was no problem being voted the best of the game. Of course, Wood was doing well, but unfortunately the team itself was not in form, which dragged him down......"

Journalists are not satisfied with such an answer, they are not here to listen to such nonsense.

"There was a scandal at the Forest Club last time, what is your comment on that?"

'I'm not the coach of Nottingham Forest and I'm not going to say anything about that.' Don replied with a straight face.

But the reporters ignored Donn's statement, and they kept bombarding him with questions about Nottingham Forest, and they didn't believe him.

To be honest, deep down in his heart, Donn still cares a lot about what happened to the Forest team during this time, and he has a lot of evaluations, but that's just muttering to himself, and it's not good to say it to outsiders.

Or Pierce. Bruce cleared him up: "Can you comment on Flores?" ”

Donn took advantage of this step to step down: "Flores is a very good coach and he has already shown his quality when he was in charge of Valencia. I wish him the best of luck and a little longer for the Forest......"

He was a pun intended.

After answering this question, Donn and Des. Walker squeezed his way out of the crowd and hurried away.

After a while, the media should not ask him that way. Everyone has to accept the fact that Nottingham Forest will be in the future, no matter what the future holds, and Tony. Don doesn't matter anymore. After dedicating the most precious eleven years of his life to this team, Donn embarked on a new journey.

Good luck to him.
