Since the end of the World Cup, Kenny Burns' Forest Bar has not been as lively as it is today.

Since the door opened at eleven noon, people kept pushing in, ordering a glass of beer, and then huddling together to discuss something.

When Bill Thin appeared in the bar, this murmuring voice finally turned into a loud argument. It turned out that the united fans split into two factions at this time, and no one is willing to give in in front of each other. Except for not throwing cups and swearing, the atmosphere is not friendly.

Burns continued to wipe the cup in his hand that had not been wiped clean all his life, and did not intend to come forward to stop it.

When John opened the door and entered, the arguing in the house temporarily disappeared after seeing him.

John stood at the door and looked around the house. The fans in the bar stood on both sides, with few people on the left and many people on the right. Everyone was a little angry, and was fully exposed by the red on their faces under the alcohol.

"Bill, what are you doing?" John caught the main contradiction all at once. He stared at Bill sitting on the right.

"Nothing, I'm discussing how to'welcome' Tony to tomorrow's game." Bill shook the whiskey in his glass and responded casually.

"You still can't let go? Tony has Tony's freedom..."

The fat man's words were just beginning to be interrupted roughly by Bill. He stood up suddenly, glared at John, and said with red eyes: "Shit free! Do you think he is still an ordinary head coach? Yes, we don’t care if ordinary head coaches walk more, because they are to us. Worthless! But Tony Dunn is different! It took him eleven years to prove that he belongs only to Nottingham Forest! Nottingham Forest without him is not the Nottingham Forest we like, and he without Nottingham Forest...not what we like Tony!"

John waited for him to yell, and still calmly said: "You said you like Tony, but do you understand him? His work is not pleasant, at least he still has the right to choose to leave?"

"Aha, he was unhappy, he has the right to choose to leave. So we also have the right to hate him!" Bill changed his tone and said sarcastically. "He patted his **** and left. What should we do if we leave us behind? And the players who followed him all his heart, the fans who trusted him to support him and call him the King, did he ever think about the feelings of these people when he left? Did he understand them? We treat him as someone who can bring Nottingham Forest to the top, and he treats our expectations that way?"

John felt that Bill had fallen into madness. There is no way to communicate with Bill like this. He shook his head, ignored the hysterical Bill, went straight to the left and sat down, then raised his hand to ask Burns for a glass of wine.

The wine was delivered by Burns himself, but John looked at the wine glass in a daze: "Disposable paper cup?"

Burns gave him a smile: "So I don't worry about killing you when you fight."

When John heard this, he suddenly felt in a bad mood. What a good guy he and the people opposite were before, watching the game together, running around with the glorious footprints of Nottingham Forest, winning the game and returning here to celebrate the victory, and losing the game and returning here to drink sullen wine. No matter what happened, they had never infighted like today, even when Michael left.

Unexpectedly, when Tony Dunn left, they would split. That person is really a demon, no one is there, and the influence left behind can make old friends turn against each other. Tony, Tony, how can I say hello? What did you think when you decided to leave Nottingham Forest? Also, in tomorrow's game, can you imagine what kind of treatment you will encounter?

John didn't have the interest of sitting here drinking, he stood up, looked at Bill and shook his head, then walked out alone.

The people sitting on the left also left after John left. Soon only Bill was left in the bar, and they got together to continue discussing how to "welcome" old friends tomorrow.

Burns continued to wipe his wine glass, as if turning a blind eye to all this. His eyes have already passed through the gate and floated into the distance. He also didn't know what reason and psychology Tony Dunn chose to leave. But he knew that Dunn was not the kind of person Bill said, and an ungrateful person would not visit Gavin at least twice a year.

Some people are used to wrapping themselves in thick shells and are unwilling to let others easily understand their inner world. Tony Dunn should be such a person.

The day before the game, the scene that took place in the Forest Bar was still played out in other parts of the city of Nottingham. The city was originally divided by the two teams of Nottingham Forest and Nottingham Forest, but now it is divided into three-the fans of Nottingham Forest are in conflict.

Tony Dunn will take England back to Nottingham in the game tomorrow. How should we treat him then? To thank and welcome him from the heart, or to greet him with booing, verbal abuse and middle finger?

They can't forget so many trophies and joys brought to them by "His Majesty the King", but they also can't forget the shock that Dun En and the Forest team brought to their hearts when they broke up. Indescribable complex emotions flooded their minds. Mixed with shock, disappointment, sadness and anger, they messed up their lives. Don't think that football is not so powerful. In this country and in this city, football has such energy.

The Nottingham Evening Post used such a headline in the newspaper published this day:

King or Judas?

It vividly illustrates the conflicting mood of the Forest fans.

"I will definitely go and hug the boss before the game." Pepe announced his decision in the locker room, attracting everyone's attention.

Someone in the locker room has a good feeling for Dunn, such as Pepe. Until now, I still miss the head's kindness. There are also people who disdain Tony Dunn, such as those new players who have just joined the team. They have never experienced the Dunn era, and they can't understand why people like Pepe go crazy with an outgoing coach.

The Brazilian central defender Thiago Silva, who just joined the team, is such a representative. He came to the Forest team to replace Kompany, and he was naturally very excited to join a team that just won the Triple Crown. He is eager to flex his muscles here, and he doesn't care about what happened to the Forest team before. He also couldn't understand that there was always someone in the locker room discussing a head coach who had left.

"Pepe, aren't you afraid to show your face from above?" Bell pointed to the ceiling.

"They can't control that much." Pepe looked contemptuous. He was the first player on the team to clearly express his dislike of senior management. Anyway, I really want to offend the club chairman, the big deal is to leave. The boss is not here anymore, what's the point of staying by yourself?

Some of the players admire Pepe's daring to love and hate, and to act and act. There are also people who dismiss this and don't take it seriously, thinking that Pepe is just talking about it, and anyone can move his mouth.

Cracks appeared in the locker room that was united like a monolith.

Bell looked at Pepe, then turned to look at Wood, "George..."

Wood looked at him without answering.

"You, uh... will you hug the boss too?" In the team, everyone knows how good Wood and Dunn’s relationship is. If Dunn is Wood’s father, I’m afraid no one will disagree.

But today Wood did not give an answer that fits this relationship. He shook his head: "I'm not that nauseous."

Bell felt Wood's indifference, and he stopped talking. Since the head left, the atmosphere in the dressing room has changed and it has become very uncomfortable for him. Playing in Nottingham Forest used to be a pleasure, but now it has gradually become torture. For those players who have the best relationship with Dunn, this feeling is particularly obvious.

He was busy with his own affairs in silence. The other players gathered in groups and whispered, and 80% of them were related to tomorrow's game.

Bell was no longer interested in their discussion. If there is anything to discuss, I will know everything tomorrow.

Evan and Allen were in the spacious office of the club chairman, staring at each other without speaking.

This silence remained for a while before Evan changed his posture and leaned back in the chair. The leather chair back creaked, breaking the silence in the room.

"It's a coincidence." Allen laughed. "When I booked this game, I didn't expect him to become England's head coach."

"Isn't that good? As far as I know, many people in Nottingham are very dissatisfied with his sudden departure. This game may be a way for them to vent their dissatisfaction."

"Do you like seeing this scene?" Allen asked.

Evan opened his hands and said, "It's better than letting those people protest at our door all day long?" He suddenly took the initiative to hold a press conference at the beginning, and he had such a meaning-to implicitly transfer the main responsibility to Dunn. Now let's see that his goal has basically been achieved. Although there are still voices against the club, it is too insignificant compared with those who dislike Dunn.

It can be said that Tony Dunn’s character and consistent image in the media helped Evan Daggerty. If it weren't for his terrible temper and rotten image, the public might not be so easy to target Dun En.

If Tang En always appeared in front of people as a good gentleman, with a gentle and low-key personality, and without so many enemies, how could he have fallen into such a field? Character determines fate, this is true.

Allen stood up to say goodbye: "Tomorrow's game... is full of expectations. We earned it. It was originally just an ordinary friendly match, but because of Tony, everything is different. The outside has been blocked by reporters. , Be careful of them when you go out in a while."

Evan smiled: "Great free advertising. We should all thank Tony."

Allen did not answer, turned and walked out.

Since Dunn became the head coach of England, the happiest person is not the die-hard Dunn fans, but Mr. Carl Spike.

As if he had regained his focus in life, he smiled and greeted everybody on the TV station. Everyone who knew him shook his head behind his back. Living for Tony Dunn, I really don’t know what Spike would think if he knew this.

After the World Cup, the football program fell into a downturn. Originally, this game between England and Nottingham Forest was not an important game. Nottingham Forest will be used to test its new lineup, and England will definitely not send a main force. Such a game has little value for attention. But it's different now, because Tony Dunn became England's head coach.

The person on this topic is the news maker, wherever he goes, the news will happen. Carl Spike no longer has to worry about what to say on the show. Now look at the previous episodes of the shows he made, it really makes him put his head in his crotch-dry and tasteless, his most proud punch line is gone, his eyes wandering when he speaks, it seems that he is not even himself Knowing what that mouth is talking up and down. Without Dunn, he didn't even know what he should say.

Now there is no need to worry about these anymore, no matter whether it is curse or irony, there is a target tree in front of him.

He stepped briskly and stepped into his own independent office. With his foot gently tilted, he closed the door, and then turned around freely, as if dancing. He walked to the desk in a circle, picked up a dart on the desk, and threw it towards the office door.

With a "poof", the dart plunged into the dart board. That dart board is very special because it is a photo of Tony Dunn grinning.

The dart was stuck in Dunn's teeth, looking a little funny.

Spike also laughed like Dunn in the photo: "It's been a long time, Mr. Dunn. The England team is harder to take than Nottingham Forest."

Dunn in the photo still grinned, still holding a dart in his hand, and did not answer him.

"Tomorrow's game is highly anticipated for a simple reason-Tony Dunn is back. This time he is returning to Nottingham as a guest." The BBC reporter said to the camera lens with a microphone in hand. Behind him is the red behemoth-Crimson Stadium.

Although there is still a day before the game, the parking lot outside the new Nottingham Forest home Crimson Stadium is already full of broadcast vehicles. Many media gathered here to report Dunn’s "home" news.

The reactions of the fans, the reactions of the Nottingham Forest players... these are what the reporters desperately want to know.

Tickets for this game were sold one week in advance. Three days ago, 60,000 tickets were sold for 50,000. If it were placed in a big city like Manchester, Liverpool or London, it is estimated that 60,000 tickets would have been sold out.

"The fans are very enthusiastic." The reporter walked to the fans who were queuing to buy tickets, planning to do a street interview.

A thin man appeared on the TV camera and shouted excitedly into the reporter's outstretched microphone: "We will welcome Tony very, very warmly! This game will definitely make him unforgettable! Aha!"

The reporter reappeared in the TV camera, he smiled and said: "It seems Tony Dunn's influence is still great, and these fans still miss him. The game tomorrow must be very exciting!"

※※※

The players who had finished training walked out of the training ground one after another, ready to go home to change clothes. The reporters who had been waiting for a long time flocked to them and surrounded them, be sure to let them talk about tomorrow's game.

"This is just an ordinary friendly match." Captain George Wood coldly pushed away the reporters in front of him and squeezed out.

The reporters shrugged, and then aimed at other players. Basically, they couldn't get what they needed from Wood's mouth.

"I am looking forward to seeing the boss again!" Pepe said what the reporters wanted. Especially the title, this matter is too much to do. If Martin O'Neill heard this, how would he react?

"It's a bit strange... I never thought I could be a rival to him before." The person who said this was Gareth Bale, who was a little more calm. "But it must be a very interesting experience. ." All he said was nonsense, and he said nothing.

Most of the other players are ambivalent and are unwilling to talk about tomorrow's game. He hurriedly left after a few words. He seemed absent-minded even when signing autographs for fans.

When Martin O'Neal came down from the training ground, the players were almost gone, and there were some reporters around, just waiting for him.

"I have nothing to talk about." O'Neal knew what they were asking, and raised his hands in advance. "I understand why you media are so interested, but for me, this is an ordinary friendly match. I don't care how you hype it, provided that you don't affect my players."

But the reporter didn't want to let him go. "Hey, Martin. Do it here, did your ex influence you much?"

O'Neill pursed his lips without answering. In fact, he had to thank Dun En for not mentioning Nottingham Forest, otherwise the pressure would be even greater. Even so, the influence of the former head coach is still everywhere, which annoys him. He must have been dizzy when he agreed to take over the team and ignored Tony Dunn's influence.

"Just one question, Mr. O'Neill. Can you comment on Tony Dunn?"

O'Neill pretended not to hear.

The reporter refused to give up and continued to ask: "Are there any conflicts between you?"

O’Neill dare not pretend to have heard this question. If reporters interpret it unkindly, his silence will really become "Martin O’Neill dissatisfied with Tony Dunn". Such news will throw himself away. On the cusp of the storm. He is not Dunn, he doesn't like to be a news figure who is over-focused by the media.

"No." He stopped and smiled. "My relationship with Tony has always been very good. He is a very good head coach, as can be seen from his winning so many championships. As the newest of Nottingham Forest Coach, I hope to continue this glorious tradition."

He was still forced to answer the first question and put himself in a low profile.

After saying this, he quickly walked out of the reporter's encirclement, ignoring the yelling of the reporters behind him, and walked away.

Pierce Bruce was also among the reporters pestering O'Neal, watching O'Neal quickly fleeing from the back, he thought of Tony Dunn in his heart.

From the beginning to the end, Dunn did not show up and say a word about this game, but it made so many people crazy. At the same time, is that person hiding in the dark watching the play and laughing? He must be very proud, right? After leaving, there is such a terrifying influence that makes countless people willing to go crazy for him.

This man is really a bewitching demon. (To be continued, if you want to know what's going on, please visit www.qidian.com, there are more chapters, authors are supported, and genuine reading is supported!)
