48 Double standards
On the suggestion that the new Manchester United buy the Newton Heath site, the municipal axe was quick to respond.
A total of 165 acres of land, New Manchester United offered £3 million, to be paid over three years, with £1 million a year.
It's not that Xiao Yu has no money and can't pay off his surname at once, but that he listened to Walsh's advice this time and kept an eye on it, after all, money can't be revealed, as a Chinese who has traveled through the past, Xiao Yu knows it clearly.
Paid £1 million and signed a contract with the Municipal Axe, and a large piece of land opposite Brookdale Park belonged to Xiao Yu.
However, for the District Athletic Stadium, the municipal axe still refused to let go easily, and their explanation to Xiao Yu was that it still needed to be negotiated again, because this matter was very important.
But the fact is that discerning people know at a glance that under the premise that the municipal axe intends to retain the use of the district athletic stadium, some real estate developers have begun to withdraw from this competition, and now the most promising person to get this land should be Manchester City, but in fact, Manchester City has no money, even the money to buy an acre of land can not be taken out.
Last year, Manchester City was relegated from League One to League Two, and this year they have increased their investment and introduced a number of powerful players, and they have been ranked at the top of League Two since the league began, and even topped the table for a time, and the hope of promotion is very high, so after the winter break, they have increased their reinforcements, and they are almost doing everything they can to get out of the League Two quagmire.
Manchester City are now fourth in League Two and have largely secured play-off qualification, but they are clearly not content with a risky play-off and prefer direct promotion.
If Manchester City does not have the financial resources to participate in the bidding, then the land of the District Athletic Stadium will only have three options, the first is to sell to the real estate developer, which now seems to be unpromising; Second, according to Xiao Yu's previously known history, he will wait there and plan to transform it into a venue for the 2002 Commonwealth Games in another year, and then lease it to Manchester City for up to 250 years at a low price.
As things stand, the second possible surname is the last resort.
As for the third possibility, it was sold to the new Manchester United, and the only thing worrying was the results of the new Manchester United.
For this aspect, Xiao Yu is really powerless, although the outside world unanimously agrees that with the current strength of the new Manchester United, even if it is a national league, there is no relegation problem, and in the Northwest Division B League, it is simply standing out from the crowd
But who has a way?
Britain is a country full of rigid rules!
On the day Xiao Yu signed a contract with the Municipal Axe to buy the Newton Heath training base, New Manchester United sat at the Butcher's Knife Stadium and defeated the visiting Abihim team 5-1.
After 35 league games, New Manchester United has 81 points from 25 wins, 6 draws and 4 losses, ranking first in the Northwest Division Division, as many as 19 points ahead of the second place.
That means that if the new Manchester United win away from home in their next league game, they will win the Northwest Division B six games ahead of schedule, and may also set multiple records in the 10th Division.
The new Manchester United will face a 36th-round opponent in the North West League, a semi-professional team from a small town of less than 30,000 people in the east of Manchester, who are well known in the North West League, but were sent off from the First Division last year due to financial problems.
They are also in the FA Cup this year, but it is because of the two-front battle that their results in the league have not been excellent, and they are currently fifth in the league, just one point away from sixth in the league, and are currently fighting for qualification in the promotion play-offs.
Every year, the Northwest Division Division is promoted by the champions, and then the second to fifth play-offs are played to determine the other place, so Glossop still has hope of promotion.
Predictably, this game is going to be very difficult.

Due to the fact that it was a championship game and the distance between Manchester and Glothorpe was not very far, the match attracted nearly 2,000 Manchester fans to the away stadium.
Such a large number of away fans obviously made Glosshorpe a little worried about the capacity of the stadium, but fortunately, the fans of the new United were only crazy about the stadium and were relatively less involved in the news of the disturbance outside the stadium, so it was not difficult to organize the order.
Glothorp's 2,500-seat stadium was flooded with 2,000 new Manchester United fans, which, together with its local fans, made the stadium packed.
There were not much changes to the new Manchester United's main line-up, with David Bell starting in place of Jonathan Maiten in attack due to Rodri Giggs' leg crutch two days ago in training.
David Bale is one of those well-balanced all-rounders, not as fast and technical as Ryan Giggs, and not as physical and goal-scoring as Jonathan, so he hasn't been given many appearances this season, only when the two were injured or suspended.
The midfield four are still Karl Maternson and Stephen Smith in the middle, with Frank Carrak and Darren Lyons on the left and right wings, with Marginson, Smith and Lyons all of the new Manchester United's first choice in the middle this season, and will generally start unless it is an injury or suspension.
As for Carrak, he is linked to left wing-back Patrice Evra, and if Patrice Evra is usually played, the full-back must be Carrak.
At the back, Garay Turner, Danny Collins, Patrice Evra and Kevin Evan are sidelined, and Steve Bruce is firmly in the dugout, and I believe that if this game is won again, he will consider giving Danny Collins more opportunities in the next few games.
After Kassel finished reading the starting lineup, some people were happy and some were worried!
"How important this game is today, I'm sure I don't need to say more, you all know very well!" Bruce said in a serious voice, "I don't have any more requirements for you, the only requirement is, can you do it if you win this game?" ”
"Yes!" The players replied in unison.
With a big wave of Bruce's hand, the players began to play.
Since the vast majority of amateur teams in the Northwest Division Division do not have a player tunnel like Highbury Stadium, the players left the rest area and went straight to the pitch.
"It seems that our players are excited today!" In the stands, Derek, who was sitting next to Xiao Yu, said with a smile.
This is the first time he has come to watch the new Manchester United game in person, and of course, like the fat Jim, he has found a very fair excuse for himself, work!
"Glothorpe is not a softie, they also want to be promoted, if they win this game, they can continue to maintain the league position, but if they lose, they can fall out of the league at any time, so they will definitely fight hard!" Xiao Yu was also apprehensive about such a competition.
If you want to talk about strength, Glossop is definitely not as good as the new Manchester United, but now the new Manchester United league lead is very large, this round does not win, the next round can still win, still win the championship, but Glossop is different, once this round of the game is lost, but the opponent wins, then they will completely lose the initiative advantage, become only to look at people's eyes.
Therefore, Glossop is more desperate than the new Manchester United!
In this kind of amateur game, in this kind of potholed rotten grass, strength often does not represent everything, in fact, on the football field, the weaker side is often able to turn defeat into victory, this is the underdog!
As a fan, Xiao Yu undoubtedly likes to see the underdog, but as the owner of a club, Xiao Yu doesn't want the upset to appear on his team.
This kind of double standard is sometimes really contradictory!
…………
…………
With the referee on duty, David Bell drove the ball to Jonathan, and the game officially began!
As Xiao Yu expected, Glossop launched an almost desperate scramble for the new Manchester United from the beginning, and did not skimp on physical strength at all, from the beginning of the game, the action was very large, and there were often scenes on the pitch where the new Manchester United players were shoveled with the ball.
As this is often seen in amateur matches, referees are not as strict as in professional matches, and even in professional leagues such as League C, League Two and League One, they are still ubiquitous.
This is true of the lower leagues of any national league in the world!
Since Kassel arrived, the new Manchester United has added more off-ball running training to their usual training, as well as passing and receiving coordination, which has made the overall technical and tactical level of the new Manchester United slightly improved, only slightly.
The poor pitch and the uneven skill set of the players made it difficult for the new United to maintain a fluid attacking combination and only occasional flash of inspiration, but even so, it could already make the new United a reputation in the Northwest Division Division.
But the more technical flow there is, the more afraid of the kind of team that messes around, so when the new Manchester United encounters a team like Glothorp, which is not stingy with physical strength at all, and fights like a mad dog in any corner of the field, and the tactics seem to run completely around the ball, the new Manchester United undoubtedly meet a strong opponent.
No matter which player the ball gets into the hands of the new Manchester United player, they can always have three or two people in that area, rush up to form an encirclement, forcing the new United player to pass the ball out.
This kind of hurried passing and transfer naturally has a lot of mistakes.
But what about Glosshorp?
The new Manchester United's skillful combination of two midfielders, coupled with the fact that Darren Lyons and Frank Carrak in midfield are both attacking and defending, makes it difficult for them to break through the new Manchester United's midfield defence, often getting the ball and passing it to the front of the field.
Garay Turner is slow to turn, but his physical fitness is excellent, and after a season of training by Bruce, his positional sense and judgment of the ball have also improved to a certain extent, and he can always get the ball out before the opponent.
Glothorpe seemed to be not at all sorry and began a new round of scrambles.
It was in this cycle of constantly grabbing the ball, making long passes, losing the ball, returning to defense, and grabbing the ball again that the first half passed
