Chapter 56: The Magpie Bar
After playing an exciting ~ emotional game with Manchester City, even though there is still a league game to play in three days, Loew still decided to take a day off and let the players rest well, both physically and mentally, it is not good to always be tense.
"Let's go, let's go have a drink together!" David couldn't help but pull Loew and Soriano and went straight to the bar, not giving the two a chance to refuse at all.
Loew and Soriano smiled bitterly, but couldn't say no to the seemingly unreliable president of the club, because after so much time of contact, they had come to the conclusion that David was actually a fan, and unlike any other fan, he owned a club and that was it.
David relied on the memories of his ex to walk all the way to a secluded pub not far from Meadow Lane, where he knew his ex would often come to sit because it was a stronghold for some of the die-hard Notts County fans.
With such a good place to readily, David naturally won't rush to an unfamiliar bar for a drink, God knows if it's Nottingham Forest or a stronghold for Mansfield fans, and the sad experience of the three Lescotts is just around the corner.
The name of this pub is named after the nickname of the Notts County club, called the Magpie Bar, but when it comes to the nickname Magpie, I am afraid that the first reaction of most fans is the Premier League giant Newcastle, unless the fans of Notts County will not know that Notts County also calls this nickname.
The owner, Luis, is almost 50 years old this year, and his body is very good, but he should not be underestimated because of this, you know, when he was younger, he used to be a professional footballer in Notts County, and he always played for his favorite team, and his name can still be seen in the Notts County Hall of Fame.
The three of them pushed the door in, and at this time, the whole bar was in a state of almost frenzy, because of the excellent record of Notts County, everyone was drinking in the ring, enjoying victory and good wine, which can basically be regarded as two of the two hobbies of the English.
The passionate music that accompanied everyone shouted and shouted wildly, and from time to time slogans such as "Long live Notts County" were heard, followed by everyone in unison, and the atmosphere was extremely frenzied.
"Hey, look who's here!" The owner, Louis, was picking up beer from the beer keg in the bar, and suddenly looked up and saw the three Davids who had just arrived, with an excited expression on his face, and greeted him loudly.
"It's been a while since you've been here, but it's understandable that the club is on their way to glory and you're going to be busy!" Louis couldn't help but say that he brought three beers, "Oh, I'm in for a treat!" ”
Perhaps because of the dim light, or perhaps because he was patronizing to greet David, Louis did not recognize who the two men next to David were.
David sat down at the bar with a smile, took a sip of his wine glass, although he was not used to the British way of drinking, but in this atmosphere, what could be more exciting!
Putting down the wine glass, David smiled and said to Louis: "Old man, I am not the protagonist today, as a die-hard fan of the team, it is very rude for you to snub the CEO and head coach of the team like this!" ”
Louis looked at the two people next to David when he heard this, and was shocked when he saw it, he never thought that the Big Three of Notts County would actually come to his bar together.
Masan turned off the music, and Louis jumped to the bar with agility that was completely out of his size, shouting, "Guys, look who's coming!" Our President, our CEO, and our Head Coach! Oh my God, let's cheer for our heroes today! ”
All the bar guests, or fans, focused their attention on the bar, and when they saw that the three of David had really come to the Magpie Bar as the boss said, they instantly shouted in unison, as if the sound could penetrate the roof of the bar.
In the minds of these fans, there is no doubt that the players are the biggest heroes of Notts County, but in the end, the Big Three of Notts County are the real heroes behind the scenes, and without them, I am afraid that Notts County would still be the team that can only struggle in the lower leagues.
"David, can we upgrade this year?"
"David, are we really going to build a new stadium? If my grandfather were still alive, he would be excited and couldn't sleep for days! ”
"David, our players can't be sold, they are the future of Notts County, and I am waiting to see the day when they become big stars in Notts County!"
……
The regulars here seemed to be familiar with David, and they raised their glasses to David, and then shouted loudly, shouting out their hearts.
Looking at the excited fans, the three of David were thrilled in their hearts, even more profound than when they were on the field, this is a real fan, a fan who supports Notts County forever.
David poured another glass of beer, and then drank vigorously, and also rushed to the bar, hugged the owner Luiz, and shouted: "That's right, Notts County can not only be promoted this season, but also next season, we want to gain a foothold in the Premier League, we want to play in the Champions League, we want to win the league title, this is my guarantee to you!" Now, let's raise a glass together, for Notts County, dry! ”
All the fans cheered and raised their glasses in unison, and the scene of everyone in the bar throwing their heads up at the same time was extremely spectacular and stirring.
For the rest of the day, the three Davids were the center of attention at the bar, and almost every fan came over to hug them and have a drink, as if that was the way to express their excitement.
Of the three, David is the most popular, because he is the president of the club and has been a regular here before, and many people are familiar with him; Loew is also very popular because he is the coach of the team, and the fans are very satisfied with this coach with strong coaching ability.
However, Soriano's popularity is much worse, he has been here for the shortest time, and his work content does not have much intersection with the fans for the time being, even if the fans know that the club has a new CEO, I am afraid that they may not be able to remember his name.
"It's not like we deliberately want to make you deflated, no way, who let you come late!" Seeing Soriano, who was somewhat snubbed, David deliberately rolled his eyes and said.
Soriano doesn't really care, in Barcelona the fanaticism of the fans is no less than in England, and Notts County is where he works, but not his love.
However, in the face of David's deliberate provocation, how could Soriano retreat and admit defeat.
"Everyone's consumption tonight is counted on my head, let's enjoy the carnival!" Soriano raised his glass and shouted, greeted by the cheers of the fans.
However, Soriano was unlucky, he became the new focus of the bar, just imagine being poured by countless big men in turn, even if his stomach was a barrel, it would not be able to hold such a beer.
So, in just half an hour, Soriano was unconscious.
