Chapter 217: The Man (Part II)
Hydward is really at a loss for words about getting someone out of class, what can I do? I'm desperate! Looking at the smiling reporters below and full of joy, Hydward helplessly spread his hands and said into the microphone in front of him: "I have also been forced to leave the club, I understand this feeling. "His original intention was to get out of class and try to be stripped of his coaching qualifications.
After the news was released the next morning, it read "Hydward sympathizes with Cardiff City", and the statement was also changed by the media, which made Cardiff City very dissatisfied, what does it mean to feel sympathy? This is a sigh of relief that the victory is within reach!
The officials on both sides have not spoken, and the fans on both sides have already quarreled, you scold me, I scold you, and it took a few days to subside, although this conflict earned enough eyeballs, but at the same time consumed Hydward. This is the modern media, and their intensity and explosiveness would be too much for any coach to handle, so never underestimate the gossip entertainment spirit of English journalists, after all, this is an age of entertainment to death. Although everyone also liked Louis Brent's stunning debut, he was still killed by Edward, four head coaches, setting a small record and stealing the headlines.
Hydward, in addition to calling Warnock to say sorry, completely ignored the media, and those big clubs had professional media staff to investigate inaccurate reports, but Portsmouth still forgot about it, wasting money. At the beginning of the year, Sir Alex Ferguson banned a journalist who said Rooney never spoke to Ferguson in training, and said that everyone at every club could see it, which turned out to be fake, and the lord wasted his energy arguing with the media, only to get a 40-word apology letter stitched in the 11th edition surrounded by advertisements, compared to the bold back cover story? So cold treatment has always been Hydward's attitude, not to mention what to do to bet with the media, a small thing to make a storm in the city. Portsmouth's press officers urge the media to make amends, but they can't stop the media from saying anything, and traditional newspapers have been under attack by Sky, websites and other social media, and assumptions and exaggerations are a choice they have to make out of the nature of commercial competition.
Of course, the affair is far from over, as the Mirror and Corriere della Sera journalists presented Hydward with the Kickball of the Year award and summed up his season in charge without a painful conclusion:
Designated miner for gold mining in the youth team;
Championship designated broomsticks;
Winner of the 2012 Golden Accounting Award;
Portsmouth Golden Rice Bowl heirs;
2 million people who bought all over Europe;
The fiery eyes buy the people who do not move the king;
The first person in Pompey's legion to travel at public expense;
"Buy a Little Demon" is a master of magic;
The most hated man by the Premier League's Treasury;
—————— Hyde - I wasn't born strong, I was born to buy - Ward
Hydward smiled unnaturally at this assessment.
Of course, he wasn't in the mood to bother with the off-field lace, with Ward and several members of the coaching staff watching another game in the Championship promotion play-offs, West Ham United and Birmingham. The Hammers came through the game under the leadership of Big Sam, but they lost the second place to Southampton in the final stages of the league, partly because of injuries, but also because of the fact that Mr. Atkinson's Saints made fewer mistakes.
The Hammers were in a strong position ahead of the game, with West Ham midfielder Noble saying categorically: "Every time I wear the number 16 shirt, my feet feel like magic, for me he symbolizes victory." Birmingham is a team known for defensive counterattacks, when they give up what they do best at home to play possession and dominate the attack, the whole team will not play at all, and they will not play at all, and they are in the arms of Sam.
In the final minute of the first half, striker Sears drove the ball straight into the box and the ball fell right at the feet of Noble, who deceived the defender with a body-shaking feint and stabbed a left-footed shot to score West Ham's first goal in the Championship promotion play-offs.
In the 77th minute of the second half, the Hammers' corner kick caused chaos in the penalty area, and in the chaos, the old centre-forward Karui jumped high to head the second goal of the away game, and the already steady Sam Allardyce became more and more stable like an old dog, and Birmingham were no match for him at all. At this point, Heidward was almost certain who they were against in the final.
But the upheaval in the final 15 minutes of the game was a surprise to everyone, as was the case with West Ham all season, where they had a smooth start to the season and a solid mid-season, only to remember the nightmare end to the season. The Hammers finished second in the league at the end of the first half of the league and were four points ahead of Southampton, having lost 3-2 to Manchester City in the FA Cup in March, and are still second with 70 points, the same level as Reading at the top of the table.
The nightmare began on April 25, when West Ham relied on home advantage to score a goal from Noble at the heart of the midfield, but the injury to Karui up front became the turning point of the game, because just three minutes later, Reading's two of the three old men, Jason, Hunt and midfielder Karacan combined to score a goal to equalize the score, and in front of halftime, Joel McCanou, the true soul of the Reading team, sent a seemingly random but fatal delicate pick. Help Jason sink Big Sam's elaborate ship.
West Ham were devastated after this game, winning just one game in a month before being overtaken by Southampton. In the play-off stage, the seemingly safe two halves came to the final stage of the game, and the defenders of the Hammers made a series of mistakes that made Birmingham win set-pieces in front of the field, and after the header returned to the board in the 84th minute, it was actually equalized by striker Chris in injury time of the game.
Big Sam's face was a stark contrast to Birmingham's celebratory crowd. However, even so, in the post-match press conference, Sam Allardyce insisted that it was just a minor accident on the way to the final stage, and that he was able to adjust with a quick pace, while stressing that he was pleased with the performance of his players and was pleased with the two away goals.
On the second day of the game, the whole Portsmouth squad set off for the away game, while West Ham United also rushed back to London overnight, with a tough game waiting for them.
So in terms of the performance of the play-offs, compared to the fans of the Hammers, the fans of the Pompeo Army have swelled recently, they have broken the rules and precepts of "Buddhism" watching football and happy football since the start of the game, and instead drank a mouthful of poisonous dairy products, what "revived Portsmouth", "West Ham United is one Icardi short", "the strongest in the decade", etc., what a huge poison to say!
While writing and drawing on the bus, Ward took the stage to do it, and his mouth was full of words, "Please bless the squid Liu, Bailey and other bigwigs... ”
Metaphysics!
