Jack was busy with Atkinson's affairs, and then it was his cooperation with Essilor, of course, this cooperation was only the beginning, and there was no formal cooperation yet. The specific donks were handed over to his father's law firm.

After all, you can't afford to lose your weight when you work with such a big company. Of course, it is necessary to go through formalization, and finding a law firm to deal with it is the most basic.

Of course, these things are secondary, because Jack is the referee after all. The referee is his job, and if he does his job well, other things can be completed.

Anything in Jack at the moment is an added value that comes from being a referee.

It's already the end of the year.

Heading into the Christmas fixtures, Jack's allotted game this time around Manchester United at home to Derby County.

A year and a half, a full season and a half, Jack was officiating for the first time in a Manchester United game. Among the current Premier League giants, Arsenal, Liverpool, as well as the powerful Leeds United, Tottenham Hotspur, and Chelsea, have all officiated.

But never officiated a Manchester United game.

There is a saying in the Premier League refereeing world that Manchester United is the most difficult game to enforce. Because Manchester United has one of the top managers in the Premier League, Alex. Ferguson.

The deterrent power of this Premier League referee should not be underestimated. A lot of referees were very nervous when they faced Ferguson.

I can't help but not be nervous.

Ferguson was just amazing. Not to mention the treble in 99, let's talk about the number of Premier League titles in their hands after the establishment of the Premier League, which is enough to kill all opponents in seconds. Such a top referee puts a lot of psychological pressure on the referee.

26 December 2001, Old Trafford.

A sea of people.

As the largest and most famous stadium in the Premier League, Old Trafford is the pride of Manchester United. However, Manchester United's opponents are very poor, and they are currently relegated from the Premier League, Derby County.

For Manchester United, there is only one problem with today's game.

That's how to distribute physical strength.

There is nothing wrong with that. Because once we get into the Christmas schedule. It was a two-day game. It should be said that it has entered the Christmas schedule, and Manchester United has already played a game on the 24th.

It's the physical strength that is the biggest problem.

"Mark, this game against Ferguson coach. You've got a hard time. ”

Aura.

This kind of thing is too mystical to say, but it definitely exists. Halsey was the fourth referee in the game. You have to face Ferguson directly. Any pressure on Ferguson, Halsey has to bear.

"Don't worry, Jack. I'll block it all. ”

If the referee has a good relationship with the fourth referee, or the fourth referee is very good, then it can help the referee block things off the field. But once the relationship between the fourth referee and the referee is not good, or the fourth referee is soft, the referee will be unlucky.

Because the fourth referee will push everything to the referee, which makes the referee a headache.

Jack and Halsey have a good relationship.

It's not just personal friendships that are good. The two even collaborated to open an Italian restaurant in London. Although Halsey is more supportive of Gallagher, after all, it is Halsey who is promoted by Gallagher. And Jack, although he didn't specifically support whom, is clearly and Neil. Barry, Bol, they have a better relationship.

But that didn't affect Jack and Halsey's friendship.

"Thank you. Mark, you can rest assured. I'm not going to give Coach Alex Ferguson a chance to get mad. ”

"Come on, Jack. Coaches like Alex Ferguson and Arsene Wenger complain on the sidelines, but it doesn't necessarily mean that they are not satisfied with the referee's decision. Even for them, putting pressure on the referee has become a habit. ”

"Yes. Now the head coach and the players are all starting to learn how to deal with referees. ”

Jack laughed.

Ferguson and Arsene Wenger are currently the two best at fighting in the Premier League. Don't look at Wenger's personable demeanor and being called a professor. In fact, Wenger is very good at fighting. Take the initiative to provoke some opponents at every turn. And they don't just have a big war of words between the two sides, a big psychological war, and even have to deal with the referee.

They know how to put pressure on the referee before the game.

Put pressure on the referee during the match. It's their specialty. Many referees who are not paying attention during the game will be taken to the gutter by these managers.

"It's almost time, let's get out."

It was in the Premier League that Jack really appreciated the gap between the referee and the assistant referee. When Jack was in the lower league, the relationship between the referee and the assistant referee could not be said to be very bad, or the difference in status between the two sides was not very large. Because the relationship between the assistant referee and the referee can be exchanged at any time.

But it's not the same in the Premier League.

In the Premier League, the referee is the referee and the assistant referee is the assistant referee. There is a clear gap between the two sides, and there is also a big gap in the rights between the two sides.

In the Premier League, refereeing is everything.

Everything is discussed by the referee and the fourth referee. The assistant referee has almost no right to express his opinion.

If a referee and an assistant referee have a personal relationship, there is nothing wrong with it privately. After all, everyone is together to enforce the law. It's normal to have personal relationships. But if it's in public, a head referee and an assistant referee they have a good relationship. will be despised by the referee.

Similarly, if an assistant referee has a good relationship with many referees, he will also be ostracized by the assistant referee. Because in the eyes of the assistant referee, it is obvious that having a good relationship with the referee is a sycophant.

This is actually another type of discrimination.

Occupational discrimination.

Look at Bennett, although he doesn't have a good relationship with Jack, Jack admits that Bennett is a very good referee. But because he was promoted all the way as an assistant referee, and then changed from a Premier League assistant referee to a Premier League referee, he was despised by many Premier League referees.

That's the relationship between the referee and the assistant referee in the Premier League.

'It's going to be a game and this is Old Trafford. It's Manchester United's match against Derby County that is just around the corner. I'm John. Mortenson, who is with me to narrate this game is our gentleman Gary. Lineker. ”

"The referee of this game is Jack, who has been paying a lot of attention to the media recently. Referee Lee. ”

Mortenson's most famous partner is Liverpool legend Alan Brown. Hansen, however, is partnered with Lineker in this game. In fact, such a game, Alain. Hansen commented, and there were more ratings.

Because of Alain. Hansen is a Liverpool legend. He didn't hide his stance at all in the game. Commenting on Manchester United's game, spraying Manchester United. Don't look at a lot of people who are dissatisfied with Alain. Hansen, but the ratings are very high.

"Hello everyone. I'm Gary. Lineker. ”

Lineker first said hello, then asked Mortenson with a smile, "John." You and Jack. Referee Lee partnered to explain the Champions League match. Tell me about this referee who has been very beautiful recently? ”

Curious.

In fact, many people in English football are very curious. Curious about who Jack really is?

Why is it so beautiful. The appearance rate is not inferior to those Premier League stars, and it is also very unusual in the refereeing world.

But Jack's scenery is scenery, but he is not a star after all.

Jack is the referee.

Jack doesn't usually have any other job than being a referee. That is, occasionally write a review, and occasionally be a guest commentator. Then there was no contact with the media at all, so a lot of people didn't know what Jack was really like.

"Jack, you say? How so? ”

Mortenson hesitated for a moment, then said, "It's a highly educated young man who talks extraordinarily. Even if it's swearing. No swear either. But he can use a whole lot of metaphors to laugh at others. There is a wealth of knowledge accumulation. In terms of swearing, it is estimated that few people can surpass him. ”

Chinese, both inside and outside China, attach great importance to the education of their children. This has something to do with Chinese cultural traditions.

The same goes for Jack.

I have received intensive learning since I was a child, so my foundation is very solid. Later, he was admitted to a famous university in England, and he was a leader in football with good academic qualifications and knowledge accumulation.

Compared with many players with low education and coaches, Jack rarely swears. can scold people speechlessly.

That's something Mortenson appreciates. I think Jack can be a great commentator.

"Besides, it's that he's ambitious, very ambitious. His teacher, Jack. Referee Taylor is the first referee in England's history. He has officiated in the World Cup final. And Jack is aiming for his own teacher, and you think about how his ambition can be small. ”

"He also wants to officiate the World Cup final?"

"Definitely. Among his goals is definitely the World Cup final, of course, those important games, including the Champions League and European Championship finals, he probably doesn't want to let go. ”

"It's very ambitious, indeed."

Because the game didn't start, Mortensen and Lineker talked about Jack. Mainly because Jack kept appearing in front of the media during this period of time and became a man of the hour during this period of time.

However, when the game was about to start and the players were already on the pitch, they immediately changed the subject.

The referee has a topic of conversation, and the players are the protagonists in the game.

"Doodoo-"

Jack saw that the time was almost up. The whistle blew for the start of the game.

Manchester United, Old Trafford, were firsts for Jack. It feels very fresh. Mainly because Old Trafford is huge, with nearly 70,000 fans coming today.

Jack has been a referee for so long. It's the first time I've met so many fans in person.

If you're new to the Premier League, you might be a little nervous. But now Jack has even officiated the north London derby, and a match between Manchester United and the relegation team will not make Jack nervous at all.

'The game is on, it's Manchester United against Derby County. Manchester United and Derby County both played a game two days ago, the second in two days. I don't know if the fitness of these two teams will be able to make it through. ”

"Manchester United have a thick bench and Derby County have a thin squad. This game is very bad for Derby County. Derby County are currently bottom of the table and if they lose this game again, then their situation will be even more difficult. Their relegation situation this year is not optimistic. ”

'It's not just Derby, Manchester United isn't in a good place right now. Arsenal and Liverpool have all done well this season, while Manchester United's results have fluctuated greatly. If you want to defend your title, this game is not to be lost. ”

Both teams are in a bad situation at the moment, but Mortensen is more worried about Derby County.

Mortensen was really worried about Derby. Derby County have been struggling to relegate in recent years, and relegation has been even more difficult this season. In the wave of commercialization of football, especially in the Premier League, the most developed league of commercial football, it is difficult for a small team like Derby County to survive.

With two games in two days, they simply don't have such squad depth. On the contrary, although Manchester United is not in a good situation this season, it is a giant who has won the Premier League three times in a row. The bench is so thick that they can adjust it even if it's two games in two days.

Sure enough, United rotated a few players in this game, but the game started and United quickly dominated the field.

Derby County didn't have a single person compared to two days ago, and they didn't have anyone to change. These small teams usually play in one lineup for a season.

'Keane, Keane gave the ball to Ryan Giggs. Ryan Giggs, passing...... Scholes got the ball, Scholes, nice through ball! ”

'Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer got the ball.'

'Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer fell. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was pulled down by Riggott, how will the referee decide? (To be continued) R655
