029 Strong resistance

London has a rare clear night sky, and Aldrich looks up at the starry sky, and his heart is full of thoughts.

Brady and the others went to buy a lot of drinks and snacks, and everyone sat on the floor and continued to have a good party.

Aldrich had long since forgotten about the kind of Pock, and he did not consider his threat to be despicable, as if he were a bullying second ancestor, and he did not care, preaching theory and morality to the scoundrels, unless his brain was kicked by a donkey.

As everyone chatted, Aldridge suddenly turned around and asked Brady, "Do you like Millwall?" ”

Everyone else closed their mouths and stared at Aldrich with strange expressions, Brady looked uncomfortable, they were strong-blooded, they were the age of chasing the fashionable and avant-garde, and it seemed that the simple liking and dislike were a bit hypocritical.

"What's wrong? Are you dumb? Does this question take a long time to think about? ”

Aldridge frowned slightly, at least he felt that he could talk to these little hairs from the bottom of his heart, and there was no need to hypocritically put on a layer of camouflage.

Brady rolled his eyes and said, "Yes, my whole family loves it." ”

Once upon a time they were a community, and the inhabitants of that area were basically Millwall fans.

Aldrich asked again: "Will you always like it in the future?" ”

Huh?

Evan got goosebumps all over his body, and everyone else shivered.

Aldrich's question makes people feel numb.

Brady shook his head and said helplessly, "What the hell do you want to say?" ”

"Come help me."

Aldrich looked at Brady calmly, and the other party looked questioning, showing that he did not understand.

"I want to set up an official Millwall fan organisation and have a positive fan body to influence the club's image."

Brady was stunned when he heard this, and the others didn't expect Aldridge to have such thoughts.

To be honest, if Aldrich personally built such a fan organization, whether he has the energy to mention it for the time being, but the official formation of the club, it is difficult to obtain the recognition of the fan group, because there are conflicts and frictions between football clubs and fans, and the most intuitive is the price of tickets.

When it comes to money, there's never a balance.

Clubs will always think that tickets are cheap, and fans will always think that tickets are expensive.

The question of whether it is worth it or not is not in the slightest need to be discussed.

Because of this conflict of interest, Aldridge is unlikely to come forward, but he needs a healthy fan organization at Millwall.

Evan patted his head, and the corners of his mouth turned up to show a wonderful smile, as if to say to himself: "You are always like this, what do you have in your head?" Of course we'll help you. ”

Brady nodded firmly, "If this can help you, no problem, leave it to me." ”

Aldridge stood up and smiled, took his suit and prepared to go home, he looked at Brady with a sly look in his eyes, "Don't you want to think about the future?" That's unpaid work. ”

Brady, who was in high spirits, was stunned again, scratching his head and unable to continue.

Aldrich put his arm around his shoulders and walked back, not going to tease him, and asked softly, "How much savings do you have?" ”

Brady rubbed his hands together in embarrassment, shaking his head in silence.

Except for Aldrich, everyone else is still in college, savings? What are you kidding, it's good to leave a little living expenses from your parents.

Aldrich said naturally: "I will lend you 20,000 pounds, my eldest brother is recruiting funds, you take it to invest, don't take out the dividends after each investment cycle, continue to invest, I think after you graduate from college, you should be guaranteed to live without work." ”

Brady, Fred, Evan, and the others all opened their mouths wide in surprise.

The Hall family is an upstart in the British financial industry, and their return on investment is simply beyond the reach of their peers.

"Huh? Do you have a copy of me? ”

Fred licked his face and leaned into Aldrich's ear and asked, Aldrich nodded with a smile, turned his head and said to everyone: "It's all yours, and I'll lend you the capital." ”

Originally, Barnett's fund was not openly recruiting investors, which was considered to raise funds in the industry, and in the end, it was better to let his friends get a piece of the pie.

Although Aldrich doesn't know much about the financial industry, he still knows a lot about stocks, especially the famous listed companies in the next two decades, which are naturally the first choice for investment.

Evan hesitated slightly, trying to dismiss Aldrich's generosity, but swallowed back when the words came to her lips.

If you refuse, it will seem to be out of sight.

"Brady, I think I can answer the question you asked me earlier at the bar. Why should you be a head coach? Because it's something I love and want to do, and so many people have lived most of their lives and don't know what they want to do. Remember Lennon? ”

Aldrich asked in a relaxed tone.

"I remember, when I was a child, I bullied us, and then we blocked him in the toilet and beat him up."

Brady smiled with a frown.

Lennon was three years older than them and was also a neighbor in a neighborhood when he was a child.

They can't play with Aldrich, but they have a good relationship with Aldrich's second brother Andrew.

Aldridge shrugged and smiled: "Lennon has always been clamoring to be a singer when he was a child, and he went to training when he was in school, but he studied MBA in college, and after graduating from college this year, he became a stockbroker, pestering Andrew to work in my eldest brother's company." Sometimes I want to ask him: What do you want to do in this life? Is it a singer, a manager, or an investor? ”

Originally, Aldrich said this in a joking tone, but he didn't expect that as soon as his voice fell, the surroundings fell silent, no one answered, and fell into a not short silence.

It seems that Aldrich's words touched the friends around him a lot

After the third round of the League One match, Millwall won all three games, scoring 10 goals and conceding 0 goals, which surprised everyone!

But the mainstream media has not been bothered to focus on the second tier of the English league, as with less than a week to go until September, the Premier League transfer news has been the focus of recent newspaper coverage.

But Millwall's strong form has caught the attention of their league opponents.

Three days later, in the fourth round of League One in midweek, Aldridge led the team to Bolton.

Bolton have a strong home record and are aiming to reach the Premier League this season and are direct rivals to Millwall.

Probably because of Millwall's strong momentum, Bolton played very conservatively at home, and Millwall also continued Aldridge's tactical idea of stabilizing the defense, and the two sides ended in a 0-0 draw in 90 minutes.

After the fourth round of the league, Aldridge had no time to catch his breath and rushed to play Reading four days later.

When the fifth round of League One ended, Reading's home scoreboard was fixed at 0-0, and Millwall drew their opponents again after drawing two consecutive games for the third time in eight days.

After the fifth round of fixtures, Millwall slipped off the table and were overtaken by Middlesbrough with four wins and one loss.

With the cushion of two consecutive draws, Millwall's strength since the opening of the league seems to have been sniped, and it has slightly faded from the dark horse color.

But Aldridge didn't see it that way, and he even happily left Reading's Berkshire, with Millwall conceding 0 goals in five league games and the team's defensive performance delighted him.

Gareth Southgate has the demeanor of a big man at the back, Stam Thuram is brave, even Lucas, who is not yet 18 years old, has a bit of a strong temperament, and Makelele has adapted steadily in the midfield position, and his performances in several league games have been solid.

After returning to London, Aldridge still had no time to rest, and although there was no League One in midweek, the second round of the League Cup came as scheduled.

He sent a full bench line-up to meet the opponent.

This opponent is no stranger, the opponent of the pre-season warm-up match Birmingham!

In the pre-season warm-up game, Millwall failed to win at home, and the League Cup was a chicken rib for both teams aiming for promotion, so at the Lion's Den Stadium, the two sides gave the fans an extremely unrestrained game!

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, Phillips and Ballack sealed the score at 3-1 in the first half, and Dean Richards added the icing on the cake through a corner kick in the second half, and finally Millwall beat visiting Birmingham City 4-2 at the Lions' Den Stadium to reach the third round of the Carabao Cup.

A month later, Millwall will be a visit to Newcastle United, and when he learns that the opponent in the third round is Newcastle United in the Premier League, Aldridge knows that Millwall's League Cup journey has come to an end, and he does not plan to let the main squad fight against the Premier League runners-up last season, which would disrupt his plans.

At the weekend, Millwall struggled to win at home to visiting West Bromwich Albion, and after two straight draws, Millwall regained their winning feelings.

However, after the final whistle, Aldridge clearly saw that the lads on the pitch were a little depressed.

This match against West Brom left them feeling powerless and tormented.

West Bromwich Albion, who finished fourth from bottom in League One last season, came close to relegation, and showed no signs of recovery this season, and they came to the Lions' Den to play a passive tactic of retrenching defence, and if it wasn't for Schneider's direct free-kick in the second half, West Brom could have taken a point.

The players on the pitch were justifiably discouraged, with their attacking five-man attack, and even Nedved rarely roaming the edge of the box, and it was understandable that with two wing-backs and two strikers, he was forgiven for finding the back of the net.

The players were not in high spirits when they left the pitch, and Aldridge quickly walked into the tunnel after a hurried handshake with the West Brom boss.

Aldridge, who was looking through the fixtures in his office the next day, looked absent-minded, and three days later his team was going to play a midweek league game, and it was a away game, and the intensity of the game has been too great lately, who let League One have 46 league games?

While he was hesitant to make the next phase of the team's makeover, Mr. Thompson, the head of the medical department, knocked on the door of Aldrich's office.
