Chapter 68: Full!
Normally, all the matches in the final round of League One start at the same time, but with the storm of public opinion set off by the local media in Leiton, the FA decided to start from this round and all League One games start at the same time.
The game is scheduled for 3 p.m. on Sunday.
At half past one in the afternoon, Wolverhampton City fans were busy, rummaging through boxes and cabinets to find the long-dormant Orange Wolves shirt and flag. Some fans even decided to go to the stadium early and buy shirts from the stadium's specialist stores, which were angrily burned at the time of Wolves' poor results.
At 2:20 p.m., Aunt Mary and Uncle Mullin put on their orange jerseys and prepared to go. Aunt Mary shouted upstairs for Wang Ting to come downstairs. Uncle Mullin found a bamboo pole in the yard and he wanted the Wolves flag to fly at Molinox Stadium.
Wang Ting, who also wore the orange jersey of the Wolves home stadium, walked down from the upper floor, and the three of them then got into Uncle Mullin's car and drove to Molinox Stadium. While queuing for tickets, they ran into Tom.
Tom was very excited, made a surprised expression of chance encounter, and said to Wang Ting: "Ting, what a fate, we met together again!" ”
Wang Ting didn't poke him and asked, "What is written on it?" ”
Tom proudly unfolded the banner in his hand and said, "Defend Wolverhampton!" ”
Wang Ting smiled and didn't say anything more, Tom's words box opened: "Ting, will your brother start?" I can bet with my companions that your brother will start! ”
Wang Ting thought for a while and said, "He didn't say it, he just said that he was on the list." ”
Tom cheered himself up: "He's going to start, he's been fantastic in those two games. In the first game, he came on as a substitute and scored twice, and even killed the opponent at the last moment; In the last game, it took him eleven seconds to break through the opponent's goal......"
"He's my idol!"
When Wang Ting heard this, she felt very comfortable, she blinked and asked: "I remember that you said before that your idol is Zidane, am I mistaken?" ”
Tom didn't feel embarrassed, patted his chest and said, "That was before, from now on...... No, since half a month ago, your brother replaced Zidane as my idol! ”
Hearing this, Wang Ting became in a comfortable mood and asked with a smile, "What is your bet?" ”
Tom knew that Wang Ting was asking about his bet on Wang Rui's start, and said: "If I win, they will help me wash my socks next week, and if I lose......"
Tom glanced at Wang Ting, Wang Ting frowned, and asked in a deep voice, "What if you lose?" ”
Tom knew that if he didn't say anything, he might ignore him for a week, so he quickly said, "I'll give each of them a signed jersey from your brother." ”
Wang Ting breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Do you have so many signed jerseys?" ”
Tom said with a sad face, "No! This requires your help. ”
Wang Ting then understood what he wanted to say just now, glanced at himself, what he meant, thought about it and said, "Okay, if you lose, I'll ask my brother to sign for you."
Subsequently, the four of them checked their tickets and walked into the stadium. Seeing that Tom had no intention of leaving, Wang Ting asked, "You don't want to sit with us, do you?" ”
That's what Tom was waiting for, and he exclaimed, "I just want to sit with you." ”
While observing Wang Ting's expression, he hurriedly explained: "That's the case, I believe that your brother will start, and this game will continue the excellent performance of the last two games." So I want to share that excitement and joy with you. ”
Wang Ting's face softened a little and asked, "Is it because of this reason that you don't watch the game with your companions?" You're ......"
She wanted to say that she was heavy on sex and light on friends, but when the words came to her mouth, she immediately stopped, and the words came out...... It's too humiliating, and it will make Tom have unnecessary fantasies.
Tom looked at her red lips and said eagerly in his heart: Say it quickly!
Seeing Wang Ting stop, he asked, "What is this?" ”
Wang Ting glared at him angrily and said, "What do you say?" ”
Tom winked slyly and said to himself, "This should be a heavy color and a light friend......
As he spoke, he observed Wang Ting with his spare eyes and found that a faint flush suddenly appeared on that pretty face. Tom's heart began to fly over Molinox Field.
He didn't say a word, and discussed with the uncle next to Wang Ting to change positions with him. The uncle was very reasonable, and readily agreed to give him the position. Tom's excitement was like eating honey.
At this time, a large number of Wolves fans are pouring into the stadium, and some of them are even holding drums!
Morgan, who was sitting in the VIP seat, was very excited, and judging by the flow of people, the stadium should be full today. How long has it been since this stadium has been so lively?
The last game was the first game of the 03-04 Premier League season, and it has been four years since then. For four whole years, Wolves went downhill and fans lost faith in the team.
"It's going to fill up today!" Morgan said to the fat man beside him. Wenner, the club's second-largest shareholder, knew that Morgan's hidden meaning was that the club's income would increase.
The day before yesterday, Morgan said that he would spend 100,000 pounds to put up banners all over the city, hoping to attract fans to the stadium, but he was adamantly opposed. Even if the fans buy it to watch the game, with the income of a game, the money will not be recovered at all.
However, Morgan did not listen to his advice, just like buying Wang Rui, building that four-star hotel, and hiring Ince as the manager of the Wolves team. Now it seems that although one game is recovered, two games will be recovered.
Wenner didn't speak, silently watching the steady stream of fans entering the stadium. Morgan seemed to have suddenly lost interest in fighting back against him, and did not continue to ridicule him.
It costs a lot of money to play football, and the clubs that make money are only a small number after all, and Wolves have a debt of more than 30 million pounds. Compared to other clubs, this debt is not too big, and some clubs can fill the debt by selling a player.
But for Wolves, it's a big debt, and none of their players sell for $30 million.
Debt is a rope around the club's neck, and the more debt there is, the tighter the rope becomes, and in the end the club has to file for bankruptcy. When a team has money, it can buy good players, and with good players, the results will be better, and then the club's income will increase, and the fans will increase.
But Wolverhampton is a small city with a population of just over 200,000, so how many fans can there be?
At this time, Morgan's phone rang, and it was the general manager of the stadium who called.
"Morgan! Think about it, the ticket gate is about to fight! ”
Morgan was taken aback and asked, "What's going on?" ”
The general manager said: "The tickets were sold out half an hour ago, but these fans who couldn't buy tickets are still gathered here. They're going to make trouble! ”
Morgan asked, "You didn't explain it to them?" ”
The general manager said loudly: "I have explained it a long time ago, they don't believe it at all, and insist that we are selling tickets to scalpers!" ”
"The stadium security is about to get out of the way, you have to think of a way. By the way, they asked you to come forward and give them an explanation! ”
Scalpers?
If there are scalpers, it shows how good the atmosphere is at home for Wolves. Morgan wanted to have scalpers, and he stood up immediately after answering the phone and was about to go out, when Wenner hurriedly asked, "What happened?" ”
Morgan thought for a moment and dragged the club's second-largest shareholder out of the stadium, explaining to him what was going on outside. When Morgan finished speaking, the two looked at each other, and Wennell said angrily, "Don't be complacent!" ”
Morgan smiled and said, "I'm so proud of it, it's almost a fight outside." ”
Wennal thought for a moment and said, "It's too late for this one, those seats can be added for the next one."
In the 02-03 season, Wolves entered the Premier League, and in order to meet the requirements of the Premier League, Molinox Stadium was renovated and the seating capacity was expanded to accommodate more than 40,000 people. But a year later, Wolves were relegated to the Championship, and the extra 20,000 seats that could be moved, they dismantled.
Morgan nodded and said, "Let's go see how many people are outside to determine how many seats will be added for the next game." ”
