Father Green

Chapter 216: Fun in the Bar
But obviously, Le Tissier failed, the God of Southampton failed to save the team this time.Southampton, which was relegated to the League One, was quickly acquired. It is comforting that the new boss who took over the team has a vision. After helping the team repay the arrears, he vigorously built youth training. The issue that Dunton attaches most importance to is also an issue that fans are very concerned about.

It's a pity that good people don't pay for their lives.This rare and good boss passed away not long after taking over the team, and the new training base has just been expanded, and he has not had time to appreciate the beautiful blueprint he has drawn.

But fortunately, although the club is very sad, the team has always been actively operating.The owner's daughter inherited the team. Although she didn't understand football, she didn't make a foolish decision. Later, the team was successfully promoted to the English Championship.

But at this time, disaster struck again. The meritorious coach who led the team to upgrade left the team. The female boss who never intervened in club affairs intervened in the operation of the club management with a tough stance this time. She appointed a 23-year-old college graduate as the head coach. The coach, and he is still from China, a country that is not good at football.

Fans took to the streets to protest the club's decision, and many fans even played signs saying women and children (describing a young Charlotte) get out of the team.

At that time, Saints fans felt that the sky was falling again, God, have you abandoned your most loyal believers?
The kid didn't get off to a good start, and the fans seemed destined to return to League One again.

But just when everyone felt that the future was dark, the team has undergone earth-shaking changes.A wave of consecutive victories directly sent the Saints to the top of the league standings, and they won the league championship without stopping, and were promoted to the Premier League.

At the same time, in the FA Cup, Lectra won the championship against Premier League giants such as Liverpool and Chelsea.

In the past seven years, the mood of the Saints fans can be described as a roller coaster. They finally withstood the test and saw the sun after the dark clouds.The light of God sprinkled on St. Mary's Stadium again, and the Saints finally embarked on the road of revival.

Thinking of the past seven years, looking at the door of the Premier League giant Manchester City in seven seconds now, the Saints fans turned all these complicated emotions into a roar.

"Fack!!" In a bar on the commercial street near St. Mary's Stadium, Jack Lord smashed the wine glass in his hand.

The fans around looked at the former boss of the fan club in confusion. It was obvious that we scored because of the feeling that we had lost the ball?Also throw the cup?

Jack shouted: "Listen to me! The beer everyone drank tonight belongs to me! I'm in a good mood today, I treat you!!"

"WOOW~~"

"The sun is coming out from the west, and Jack has a treat?"

"Great job Jack, why don't you take out the Cook champagne that your dad kept privately?!" The fans joked.

Mr. Rhodes, who came to the bar to watch the game today, slammed on the bar with his cane: "Get lost!"

"Hahaha"

This scene didn't just happen in Rhodes' bar. Many bar owners in Southampton said that they would drink beer for free tonight.

The Southampton fans were happy, but it was even happier to have a guy who wasn't a Southampton fan.

"Hey, I just now realize that the team is playing well and this is an advantage! Hiccup~" The middle-aged man with a lot of oil stains on his clothes hiccupped in satisfaction.

And Jack Stephens sitting next to him looked like I don't know you.

"I said Jack, it's rare to drink for free today, don't you want a drink?"

Jack Stephens picked up the juice and took a sip: "Boss said that professional players must control their mouth, body and mind, so that their careers can last longer. By the way, old alcoholic. It's true that you're pretending to be a Saints fan and drinking." okay?"

The old drunkard frowned: "Anyway, they don't know. Hey, what are you doing?"

Jack pushed the wheelchair and pulled his sister at least five meters away from the old alcoholic, which was already a long distance in a small bar.

Then, under the puzzled eyes of the old alcoholic, Jack shouted loudly: "Come on, there are Portsmouth fans pretending to be Saints fans to cheat and drink!!!"

"Damn it!!" The old drunkard trembled, he was sober for five minutes, and then he didn't care about finding Jack Stephens to settle accounts, and ran away!

Sure enough, he had just run two steps when a wine bottle hit his seat.

"Crab Special!! How dare these birdmen from Portsmouth come to our territory?"

"I think which bastard is getting bored with life?!"

"Guys, that guy has to run fast!!" Then most of the fans in the bar chased him out. The old drunk seemed to be stumbling all the way after drinking too much, but his speed was not slow at all.

And then Jack sees Jack. Well, Jack Stephens sees the barman, Jack Lord, grab a bottle of beer that hasn't been opened yet and throw it out.

The beer was like a football, spinning in the air and hitting the old drunk on the back.The old drunkard staggered and did not fall, but ran faster.

The elder sister in the wheelchair was a little worried: "Uncle alcoholic, will he be okay?" Old alcoholic is Jack's name for him. Her sister thought it was inappropriate to call such an elder who often took care of her family, but I didn't know the name of the other party, and the other party didn't say it, so I got the strange title of Uncle Alcoholic.

Jack smiled: "This guy has two different things, he drinks the most, and runs the fastest!" Then Jack gritted his teeth: "I told this guy not to give you those handmade parts, but he just didn't listen. He has some lessons."

My sister lowered her head: "I think it's pretty good. I can still earn some money to supplement the family, just like before."

Jack knelt down and looked at his sister.The eyes of the young man known as "Frenzy Jack" are full of tenderness: "It's different now, sister. The seven-year contract signed last summer is enough for our living expenses, and it was renewed at the end of January this year, and the salary is even higher. High. We can move to Southampton in a year, bid farewell to this gloomy little house, and then I will make a lot of money in the future, and I will take you to a foreign hospital, and we will heal your leg."

My sister didn't speak, but the hand that was holding the corner of her clothes tightened even more.

"It's been a long time since I haven't seen the old alcoholic. The speed is much faster. It seems that next time I will hide the good wine so that I won't be able to catch up with him when this guy comes to steal." Jack Rhodes grinned and came to the two around people.

It's just that he looks more "dominant", and such a smile looks even more terrifying.

The young lady has obviously been familiar with Jack Rhodes for a long time, so she doesn't think Jack Rhodes with a sloppy face looks scary, but is very close to him.

"Uncle Jack. You... You already knew that was the alcoholic uncle?" The young lady was surprised and puzzled.

"Of course, with his cowardice, not to mention Southampton, the entire South Coast and London can't find another one!" Uncle Jack looked contemptuous and disgusted.

"Then you still hit him."

Jack Rhodes looked at the deck where the old alcoholic was before, and there were six or seven bottles of good Belgian beer and a bottle of Scotch whiskey crookedly placed on it, and the corner of his mouth twitched: "This damn guy! Falk! It’s a big loss, I shouldn’t have thrown the wine bottle just now, I should have picked up the shotgun and shot this bastard.”

Young lady: "."

Jack Stephens sighed: "I knew it was."

Southampton is a small place, and of course the whole of England is not that big.So people here basically know each other, let alone people who have been here for many years.

Of course, Jack Rhodes and Mr. Rhodes also knew the Stephens siblings, and they were very sympathetic to what happened to the siblings.What's more, Jack is still training in the Southampton youth team, so he can be regarded as one of his own.So he usually takes good care of them, but Little Jack has a stubborn temper. He repays many people who are kind to their siblings with labor, such as helping someone's family to repair the lawn, helping someone's family to go fishing late at night, etc. At the same time, he I also often come to Uncle Jack's bar as a bartender.

Who doesn't like such a person?So Southampton locals, especially Saints fans, regard their siblings as children of their own family.Although they are very unfortunate, their parents have passed away, but they have many relatives in Southampton, although these relatives are not related to them by blood.

It would be a surprise if Charlotte was here, because..."Jack the Ripper" has such a tender side? ?

In fact, Charlotte felt that the tempers of the two Jacks were very similar, and people who didn't know might think they were father and son.

"Southampton's young coach Charlotte pulled Schneiderlin to the sidelines, as if talking about some tactical deployment, just to see the meaning of his gestures. Is he asking to continue attacking?!" Alan Han came from the TV Sen's voice.

Everyone in the bar focused their attention on the TV screen again, and Mr. Rhodes didn't turn his head back: "I plan to invite that kid Charlotte to dinner at home in two days. It seems that he hasn't come for a meal for a long time. It seems that the previous team and the salary after the contract renewal are very objective. Well, little Jack, you and your sister will come together at that time. It seems that it has been so many years, and I haven’t invited you siblings to dinner. I’m sorry of."

Stephens scratched the back of his head: "You're serious, Grandpa Rhodes. I'm the one. My sister and I usually rely on you to take care of us, and I haven't thanked you yet."

I can't see that the kid who dared to shake his fist in the face of Southampton villain Jason Dodd has such an embarrassed and shy side.

"Well, that's the decision. I'll ask Charlotte to inform you that you usually meet at the club a lot."

Now Stephens, Luke Shaw, Chambers and Ward-Prowse have all been promoted to the first team to follow the first team training, and they usually play in the reserve league when they are not selected for the first team squad.

So these young players can be regarded as first-team players, and naturally they can meet the head coach Charlotte every day.
