Chapter 52: How to Deal with the Aftermath

David and several Notts County executives, including Soriano and Loew, are meeting to work on countermeasures.

"Do you want to sue these rumor-mongering media, if they continue to play, the pressure on our players will be too great." Loew is very short-sighted, because of the bottomless nonsense reports of the media in the past two days, Lescott and his three players have almost become street rats that everyone shouts at, as the coach of the team, how can he be indifferent.

David also has a headache, he knows very well about the urine of the media, if you are entangled with the media, then don't think about living a stable life, and for those media, they just want you to go to court, anyway, they don't have much to lose if they lose, it's just an apology, for these shameless guys, there is no deterrent, but they have attracted countless eyeballs.

"Otherwise, let's just announce the club's construction of a new stadium, so that we can divert the public's attention, as for this matter, we will skip it lightly and don't mention it again, and in a few days, maybe everyone will leave it behind!" Soriano came up with a good solution.

It's a good idea to divert the public eye, and the team is already preparing to build a stadium that will be released sooner or later, so it can be used to clear the club and the three players, which is a bonus.

"Okay, that's it, but should we punish three players?"

It was David who asked the question, and although he didn't want to punish the players, he had to bring it up given the serious impact of the incident.

But in response to him was the look of wonder from Loew and Soriano.

If it happened in the big ****, then Lescott and other three players must be severely punished, according to the bad impact caused, the light is a fine internal ban, or a direct expulsion from the team, for the Chinese club that has always attached importance to discipline, it is strange not to be punished!

It was with this in mind that David asked the two partners what to do.

But what awaits him is the expressions and eyes of the two partners as if they have seen aliens.

Loew was a little puzzled and said: "No, David, even if the three players fight and cause some trouble to the club, they will not be punished!" ”

David didn't know why, he didn't know why the two partners reacted like this, in his heart, isn't punishment a normal thing!

"First of all, although it was during the game, the three players did not travel with the team, which is equivalent to a holiday, and their visit to the bar is a private event, and the club has no right to interfere. Secondly, their fight is also the first provocation of the other party, if they can still be a turtle with a shrunken head in this case, then what kind of man is it called! In the end, it was also the sworn enemy fans who made such a big fuss, plus the unscrupulous media added fuel to the fire, in fact, the three players did not have much responsibility. ”

Listening to Soriano's words, David was stunned.

Empiricism kills people!

This is England, not my big ****!

Isn't it normal to go to a bar, as long as it's not forbidden by the club during the comparison period, can you control the private life of the players?

And the three players didn't look for a lady either, they didn't have an all-night hangover, it was just a general pastime, and there was no essential difference from watching a movie, so the club had no reason to punish them at all.

David nodded abruptly and stopped talking, he still hadn't fully adapted to the conditions of England.

After the discussion, Soriano operated the press conference, and the matter still had to be resolved as soon as possible.

In the past, many media outlets waited outside the Notts County Club for the brawl to develop further, and it was precisely because of their various malicious speculations about the fight that their newspaper sales increased by at least three tiers.

Even if there is no big news, they can make up big news with the introduction of the press conference.

Announcing such a big thing as the stadium construction plan naturally requires the big three of David, Soriano and Loew to play at the same time.

Walking to the rostrum arranged in front of him, looking at the crowded reporters below, David really felt that this press conference hall was too small, maybe it couldn't be seen on the basis that Notts County was a second division team, but with Notts County's promotion to League One and even the Premier League, becoming a giant in the world's attention, there are simply not so many reporters here.

"Good afternoon, reporters and friends in the audience!" Soriano, who also plays the role of today's press officer, begins with the words.

But before he could continue, the reporters in the audience were already scrambling to ask loud questions.

"What do you think about the three players going clubbing during club games, and what penalties will Notts County impose on the three players?"

"There are rumours that these three players indulged themselves because they couldn't get a place in the main team, what is the explanation for this from the Notts County club?"

"Is that the result of the Notts County investigation that the three players got into a fight because they were jealous of each other?"

"I got information from the police that three players have caused some level of bodily harm to the other party, and the other party is really preparing to sue the three players through a lawyer, what is the view and preparation measures of Notts County on this?" ……

Soriano did not panic at all in the face of the excited media reporters, although he frowned, he still tapped the microphone gently, making the microphone hum for a while, and also made the reporters close their mouths and calm down.

"Gentlemen, actually, the topic of today's press conference is not about the three players of Lescot, Ben Foster and Leiton Baines."

When Soriano said this, the reporters below were in an uproar, they were here for this brawl that shocked Britain, if the press conference wasn't about this, was it for them to have afternoon tea?

Soriano's movements were still tapping the microphone, which didn't seem particularly polite, but it wasn't a problem for these more impolite journalists.

"First of all, I'd like to let you know about the plans for a new stadium in Notts County!" Soriano ignored the reporters below who were still talking to each other, and said in a solemn tone.

New stadium?

Plan?

The reporters were confused by Soriano's words, and when they looked down from the rostrum, they all had bewildered expressions, and they didn't seem to understand what Soriano's words meant.
