The Young Lion

Although the Millwall club has its own medical department, when encountering major injuries, especially sudden serious injuries on the field, players will naturally be sent to the hospital as soon as possible.

The doctors in the club will rush to the hospital as soon as possible to understand the situation, and cooperate with professional doctors to discuss the treatment plan.

Aldridge was sitting in the corridor of the hospital, with tears on his face, looking extremely depressed and sad.

thump thump thump

The sound of hurried footsteps came, and it sounded like the crisp sound of high heels.

Melanie, who got the news in London, rushed to the hospital immediately. Seeing Aldrich sitting on a chair, she slowed down, walked in front of him, then stretched out her hand to gently hook his neck, and put He put his head against his body, then half-kneeled down, held his face and said softly: He will be fine.

Aldridge closed his eyes, hugged her waist with both hands, tighter and tighter...

After a while, Melanie sat down beside him. She turned off her phone and stayed with him until late at night.

The hospital's inspection report came out, and Thompson, the club's medical director, told Aldridge about the situation with a grim expression.

Neil had to undergo surgery and ruptured his cruciate ligament.

The procedure is difficult and the risk of failure is high.

Aldrich could do nothing but be silent.

When Neil woke up, Aldrich was sitting in the ward. Neil opened his eyes and saw Aldrich. Aldridge was heartbroken when he asked the first sentence.

Boss, did we win?

Aldrich burst into tears, squeezed a smile and nodded: Win, Pavel and the others have all been here, you see, they sent you a lot of flowers, they said they would wait for you to return to the team, our The road has just begun, you can't be left behind.

A smile appeared on Neil's pale face, and he said, Of course. I won't be left behind. Am I seriously injured?

Aldridge shook his head and said: It's not heavy, you only need to undergo an operation to recover, but the rest time will be longer, you must cheer up and face all this with strength, Lucas, you are one of the best in the team You are a tough guy, don’t be laughed at by your teammates, the team will wait for you, and I will wait for you to come back.”

Oh.

Heard Aldrich's words. Neil actually knew in his heart whether his injury was serious or not.

This made him a little frustrated.

Aldridge couldn't count on a few words at this time to fully cheer Neil up. For players. It is normal to have a period of depression in the early stages of an injury, but during the recovery period, the whole person's mentality must be positive. This will help the players return to the game.

Aldridge notified his family and will visit him regularly, as well as his teammates, who will continue to encourage him.

Aldridge left the hospital the next morning accompanied by Melanie.

After going home and resting all morning, when he returned to the club in the afternoon, Adam found him directly with a very ugly face.

After the game yesterday, the whole of East London was in chaos. The chaos lasted until the second half of the night. The police arrested many fans, most of our fans. The FA announced that they would investigate the riots in the stadium. We are likely to face the closure of the remaining home games. The penalty from the stands, in addition. The boss and the other two coaches may also face fines, and the fines will not be less.

Aldridge sat at the back of the office with his eyes closed and meditated. There was silence in the office, and a needle could be heard.

After about ten minutes, Aldrich said calmly: Study the video of the game, make a list of which fans in the stands took the initiative to provoke trouble, and investigate thoroughly if any extreme fan organization is involved. Or, go to the police station to find out the situation, it’s not necessarily all Millwall fans who are making such a fuss.”

Adam nodded to express his understanding, and asked, What about the FA?

The club sorted out a written material and submitted it, complaining about referee Barry Knight and the coaching staff's suspension. If there is no additional suspension, there will be no appeal. If there is an additional suspension, let's talk about it.

After Aldrich finished speaking, he asked Adam to go to work. He needed to be quiet. Although Melanie was with him at home, he didn't want to listen to others comforting him at this time, because he was worried about others, Neil.

After the East London derby, Millwall will usher in the midweek FA Cup quarter-finals against Newcastle United.

Aldridge forced himself to work to forget his melancholy. After this round of competition, the Premier League standings have undergone amazing changes.

Newcastle United played an earth-shattering 4:3 as a guest at Anfield. The home team was in front, the Red Army beat the Magpies, and the picture of Kevin Keegan burying his head behind the billboard became a classic picture again. Of course, this is Reverse classic.

Now the Premier League is lively. After Manchester United defeated Newcastle United in an away game last month, Newcastle United has a tendency to collapse. With five rounds left in the league, Manchester United is only two points behind Newcastle. The gap between Wall and Newcastle United is only three points.

The schedule is most beneficial to Manchester United, because Manchester United have played against Millwall and Newcastle United, but Millwall will also be away to the Magpies in the penultimate round of the league.

Since Cantona's comeback, especially in the second half of the league, Manchester United has been under the leadership of the King at Old Trafford since February and has not lost a single game for more than two months.

The Premier League championship has entered a fierce battle, and there are still five league games left. Three teams may win the championship, but Millwall has a lot of negative news because of the East London derby, making their future uncertain in the final sprint.

In Tuesday's FA Cup pre-match press conference, the focus of questions from reporters was still around the league.

The FA were in a state of distress, because Aldridge not only accused West Ham of being dirty in the press conference, but also accused Barry Knight of poor law enforcement.

The Times reporter David Miller asked Aldridge a question that silenced the room.

Mr Hall, you once said in an interview that if there was rioting at Millwall's home ground, you would not condone it, now, as the owner of Millwall, how would you use your powers? ?”

The reporters in the audience stared at Aldridge to see how he would answer.

Many people gloated in their misfortune, thinking that Aldridge had acted up a few months ago, thinking that his fans were good birds, and what he said would be irreversible. Now let's see how he ends up.

Aldrich slowly picked up a document and opened it, and read softly: Millwall conducted an investigation into the fan riots at home in the last round of the league, and made the following decision on the basis of verifying the facts, because Privacy issue, I can't release the names of the fans and the names of the fan groups, what I can tell you is that Millwall will ban 238 stand rioters from entering the Lions Den Stadium for the next three years, and have bought this book For the season tickets, we will refund the ticket fees for the remaining home games. At the same time, there are three fan organizations that I have judged as extremist organizations. It seriously affected the order in the stands. Lions Den stadium prohibits the members of these three fan organizations from entering The stadium, this decision, is permanent. The long-term development goal of Millwall is to ensure the safety and comfort of fans entering the stadium. We welcome fans who support us to come to the stadium to cheer for us. But it is not acceptable to have fans in the stands Instigating troubles and affecting the personal safety of others, thank you, today's press conference ends here.

After Aldrich finished speaking, he took the documents and turned to leave.

The reporters in the audience also raised their hands and kept calling his name, wanting to ask more questions.

After confirming that Aldrich would not turn his head, the reporters put down their hands and looked at each other, and there were all kinds of expressions on their faces for a while.

really?

Aldrich really did it against the fans!

Isn't this tantamount to ruining one's own fortune?

Fans come in to watch the game to give money to Millwall.

On this matter, Aldridge thought very clearly and could not be soft.

Among the three extreme fan organizations. The most violent one was Kers, the East London derby. They purposely sat in the position closest to the West Ham fans, waiting for the opportunity to fight West Ham United.

Like this kind of fans who usually don't support each other, Aldridge feels that they are just making trouble under the banner. Most Millwall fans became violent because they were influenced by this organized extremist organization.

When we are in the noisy and confrontational environment, usually rational people will be infected by the people around us. Someone who provokes the leader is like a prairie fire. If it is not extinguished in time, the fire will soar into the sky and cannot be contained.

To solve the problem, the root cause must be punished, and the culprit must be eliminated. A mild condemnation has no binding force at all.

Members of three ultra-fan groups, who have been blacklisted by Millwall, have been banned from the stadium.

As soon as Millwall's punishment decision was announced that day, it immediately aroused hostile reactions from the fans, especially the fans of these three extremist organizations led more than a hundred people to surround Aldrich's apartment. Shout into the apartment, tell Aldrich to get out and give them an explanation.

Aldridge listened to music and read books at home with headphones on, not caring what happened outside.

That night, in the back seat of a movie theater in London, Andrew sat watching a boring romance movie. There were not many people in the movie theater, and they were all couples, each sitting in a dark corner and making love to each other.

Not long after, a middle-aged man wearing a coat and a hat sat next to Andrew, and said in a low voice: Mr. Hall, why did you ask me to meet here? If you want to plead for those troublesome fans, I'm sorry. I can not do it.

Andrew stared straight ahead at the big screen in the movie, and said calmly: Director Trander, you are wrong, I am not pleading for them, there is a box under my seat, there is a document in it, there are some people's names on it And for information, my brother wants the London police to do a better job of policing east London, so try to make these people good citizens if they can't, and if they can't, then please do it according to the law, lockups or prisons in London If there is not enough space, the Hall family can contribute to social stability and donate to build a new prison.

Trander couldn't make a turn in his mind, and after a moment of hesitation, he said in an official tone: Of course we will do our job well.

Okay, please don't let us down, we hope to see a stable and peaceful East London. This film is not bad, but it is a bit platonic. I can't stand it anymore. Goodbye.

Andrew got up, put on his windbreaker, put his hands in his pockets and left quietly.

Trand bent down and found a suitcase from under the seat, opened it on his lap and looked down, startling him.

Inside the box, there was one hundred thousand pounds, and a document was pressed under the money.

boom.

Trand immediately closed the box and looked around to make sure no one saw him, and no one jumped out and caught him taking bribes.

After struggling fiercely for a while, Trand took the box and sneaked out of the cinema through another exit.

Taking people's money and eliminating disasters for others is not illegal. It's just that the Hall family encourages Trand to do a better job.
