Football: I can see player entries.

Chapter 10 Burton Athletic Fan Club

"Woooo! Burton! Our captain!"

"The brightest starlight along the Trent River! Woooo!"

The fans were clearly more excited than the Burton players.

They sang their self-composed team song, turning the entire stands into a rolling yellow ocean.

What could be more exciting than watching your home team win?

"Li! Keep winning!"

"Will from Burton thinks highly of you!"

"Celebrate! There will be a celebration tonight!"

In the stands closest to the stadium, a middle-aged man with blond hair and a beer belly was crushing can after can of beer and sprinkling it into the air.

"Hey! The players have to take urine tests after the game, you bastards!"

Li Yanqing was somewhat surprised by this scene. Was this the legendary British fanatic?

I haven't seen him much, at least not when he was at Manchester United.

"Li! It's okay!"

Chris stepped forward and stopped Li Yanqing, who was about to argue with that fat man.

"He is Will, the Burton Albion fan club leader."

“I haven’t seen him this excited in a long time. Let him continue.”

"We had the players walk from the other side."

This time, Li Yanqing followed Chris's advice.

As a temporary worker, he certainly wouldn't want to offend the fans.

Especially for a small team like Burton Albion, fans can sometimes play an unimaginable role.

“They’re inviting you, Lee,” Chris said, smiling at Li Yanqing.

The latter was a little confused and didn't know what he meant.

“This is our tradition.”

"It has been around since the old Will was alive. After the old Will passed away, the fan club was handed over to his son."

“It’s great news that they’re willing to invite you to the party.”

"This will be very helpful to you!"

After listening to Chris's explanation, Li Yanqing finally understood the importance of this fan club.

The old Will he mentioned was the team's first captain when the club was founded!

This fan club was founded after the former captain retired.

Over the years, inspired by him, the fans here have developed a deep faith!

Even the club owner wouldn't completely ignore them.

"It's a pity that Will doesn't have the talent to play football, otherwise he could have inherited the mantle of old Will."

"But it's fine now, you'll see how cute they are, Lee."

Chris suddenly smiled and said mysteriously.

"Back then, I became a coach because I joined the fan club."

“You guys… are really enthusiastic! I like it!” Li Yanqing suddenly felt that he had come to the right place.

The football atmosphere here made him feel exceptionally comfortable.

It didn't work out at Manchester United. Although their fans were also very enthusiastic, the club's management simply didn't care about their opinions.

Not to mention the situation domestically.

Tonight, Burton Athletic players finally get a holiday, allowing them to rest properly.

The main reason is that Li Yanqing doesn't have time to bother them right now.

Led by Chris, they had arrived at the entrance of a tavern.

"Isn't this the place we met at for the first time? What a coincidence!"

Li Yanqing was somewhat surprised, because the last time he came here, the place seemed unusually deserted.

"That's because we haven't won in a long time, and even Will doesn't come to watch the games."

"Well... actually, it's because I don't allow him to come. This kid cries every time he sees me."

With that, Chris pushed open the tavern door, and a noisy commotion immediately reached their ears.

"Hey friends, our hero has arrived!"

"It's old Chris! And our head coach!"

"Li! It's so nice to have you here!"

Fat Will was the first to run up and excitedly hugged Li Yanqing.

"Friend, you smell like alcohol!" The latter pushed him away with a hint of disgust, which made Chris and the others laugh for a while.

"It's okay, it's okay!" Will didn't care at all. Everyone has a first time, you'll get used to it.

"You'll be like that soon, guys, let's bring a drink to our hero!"

"This place boasts the best beer in the entire British Isles! The best club!"

"Come on, I'm not afraid of you guys drinking!"

Li Yanqing rolled up his sleeves and sat down at the bar, looking completely fearless.

His magnanimity allowed him to quickly become one with the fans.

Actually, he has a pretty good alcohol tolerance, but he couldn't resist the enthusiastic fans who kept pouring him drinks.

I was already feeling dizzy in less than two hours.

"Li! Do you know how great our club is?"

"In the previous two seasons, we fought our way up from League Two to the Championship!"

"Promoted two ranks in quick succession!"

Will was also quite drunk; he held up his glass but couldn't bring himself to drink.

But he kept talking incessantly to Li Yanqing about their team history.

"I know, I know, and then once we got to the Championship, we got completely thrashed!"

The latter was blunt, but in reality, he was almost at the point of not knowing what he was saying.

"Hahaha, yeah, and then we got fucking blasted!"

"So, Lee, I'm begging you! You must keep the club in the Championship!"

"Even if we get blown to bits, we'll stay here!"

"There's hope only if we stay here, isn't there?"

He seemed noncommittal about Will's words.

"Save us from relegation? To hell with relegation! We want to advance! We want the championship! We want to beat Sanders!"

Why do we need to take down San Dezi?

"Because I want to take him down!"

"Hahahaha..."

He doesn't remember how he got home, or maybe he never even got home?

All I know is that when I woke up the next day, I was already sitting in my office.

"Oh, our hero has woken up?"

"Huh? Who are you? Why are you in my office?"

Li Yanqing sized up the middle-aged man in a suit for a long time, confirming that he did not recognize him.

“I am Kevin, Diaz Kevin, the club’s business manager.”

"Also, this is my office."

"Oh...sorry." Li Yanqing shook his head abruptly and quickly apologized.

Business manager, a very important position.

If he gets a permanent transfer, the transfer fee will basically depend on him.

“It’s okay, Li. You surprised us. Robinson and I both think highly of you.”

"Maybe you can actually help the club avoid relegation."

After offering a few compliments, Kevin finally spoke.

"I heard you relegated Palmer and Choudhury to the second team?"

"Actually, they are all very talented young people, and we should give them more opportunities..."

Upon hearing this, Li Yanqing suddenly came to his senses.

The other party came to plead for those two boys!

“No, they are all cancers that must be removed, Kevin.”

"This is something I've already decided!"

He certainly wouldn't agree; in his view, those two boys were nothing but trouble.

Now that they have been dealt with, bringing them back now would undermine the authority that I have worked so hard to establish.

However, his refusal seemed to displease Kevin.

But he didn't say much, just nodded calmly.

"I will try my best to respect your opinion, Li."

"But this was Robinson's decision, and I'm afraid..."

Now it's the latter's turn to be unhappy.

What do you mean?

Try your best?

They even brought up the boss?
