Chapter 84: Dissatisfied with this reply

Evan Doggetty’s so-called “satisfactory reply” is to retrieve Donne and everything returns to its origin. Everyone thinks that nothing has happened in the past two months. Nottingham Forest continues to dominate England and Europe.

But Tang En did not cooperate, so this reply would naturally be less satisfactory...

In the past few days after being rejected by Don En, Evan and Allen were not idle either. They contacted the coach everywhere, whether they were unemployed or had jobs, all on their roster. They had to find a new head coach for the team. The team's current recruitment and preparation work was almost completely paralyzed. If this situation continues, all the grand plans for Nottingham Forest's new season will be ruined.

Hiddink insists on serving as the head coach of the Dutch national team, otherwise he will be exempted from a talk.

McLaren is not interested in the coaching position of this team.

Scolari is unwilling to return to the UK to coach again.

Ancelotti doesn't want to coach at the club where his mortal enemy once stayed, because he doesn't want to be repeatedly talked about his grudges with Tony Donn, especially when people introduce him, they will definitely say "This is Tony Donn's successor". That's a huge insult.

Schuster passed quickly in Spain and was unwilling to coach in England.

...

They even went to the Americas to find coaches, Luxenberg, Bielsa... They were so hungry. Regardless of whether it suits the style of their team, as long as they are head coaches, they would ask, "Are you willing to coach in the best team in Europe?"

Unfortunately, they frequently throw out olive branches, but no one is willing to take the initiative. Perhaps the hype of the news during this period has damaged the club's reputation. Many coaches will consider when receiving this invitation: How long can they do it in a club that likes to interfere in team affairs?

Perhaps the only thing they are attractive at this time is money, and Evan had to raise the treatment standards at one time. Hopefully, he could attract a head coach of sufficient standards.

In the end, they finally settled the head coach before the day they agreed with the fans.

Former Valencia's head coach Flores accepted the invitation from Nottingham Forest Club and signed with the club for three years, officially becoming the head coach of the team.

However, such news cannot arouse people's interest. What everyone is interested in is how the club will give angry fans a "satisfactory reply".

The press conference on Flores' inauguration was filled with media from all over England, but they were not here to support the new coach, but to ask for the "reply".

This made Flores very embarrassed. He was the second person after Martin O'Neal to see Tony Donn's influence as soon as he came up. Such an opening is not a beautiful memory.

Only a few fellow journalists who came from Spain to interview me from a thousand miles away remembered to ask Flores a few questions, and left him with some face. Other reporters from England all pointed their fingers at Evan Doggety, who accompanied Flores to attend the press conference.

Just at the same time. Outside the Crimson Field, a group of policemen surrounded another group of people as if they were facing a great enemy. The surrounded people were radical fans of Nottingham Woodlands, holding cartoons that ugly Evan Dogette and Alan Adams, as well as slogans and banners that insulted the two, and standing at the entrance of the stadium. In the scorching sun, protested to the club.

The reporters were still asking questions to Evan Doggetti in the crowded news hall... or it was more appropriate to "fire".

Dogerty couldn't resist it, and in the end he could only cheat: "My reply is for the fans, not for your reporters." If it weren't for the press conference for Flores here, he really wanted to leave. And then he also realized how annoying the media was, why Tony always liked to do the right thing with the media. This was something he didn't notice when he was praised by the media some time ago.

Such a press conference was also a torment for Flores, but fortunately he was not very proficient in English, and he couldn't understand some harsh questions. Otherwise, if he knew that English journalists questioned whether he could suppress the big-name stars in the Nottingham Forest locker room, he would be furious. Maybe he would just walk away - if he was much more skillful than Evan, he should know that he was also famous for his "character coach" and "madman" in Spain.

The press conference ended hastily due to the troubles of journalists and fans.

Evan Dogerty and Flores left the Crimson Field with their own worries.

As Evan's car drove out of the parking lot, he saw the group of fans protesting against the earth under the strict "protection" of the police.

The slogan they held up said: "Get back to me! Give me Tony back!"

If they knew they had indeed invited him. But he rejected him, what would these fans feel? Until now, Evan feels that he loves the forest more than Tony.

Allen hopes to sign a star with enough weight to the team before giving a reply, but they have no time left.

The full text of the Piaotianyi homepage published an open letter written by Evan Doggety himself on the homepage of the next day.

In the letter, the club chairman did not admit that it was a huge mistake to let Don En go, nor did he explain O'Neal's departure. He just told the fans who love the Forests that it was time for ten years to change the dynasty.

"...As the chairman of the club, I am very grateful to Tony Donn for everything he did for the team and the club. I also miss the days when I was with him. But we have to look forward, ten years and a cycle. Maybe it's time to start over. I still thank Tony for the triple-champion that he brought to the team before leaving. It was the best parting gift. Perhaps such a gift made all of us lose our judgment, continue or reshape glory? I chose the latter.

I hope you still support the team. The team has been welcoming many head coaches in history. When Brian Clauve left the ground, isn’t there anyone saying that no one can surpass him again? Next we welcome Tony Donne. Now there is such a cycle. Why can’t there be a third person?

I hope today is another brilliant beginning…”

"What he said is bullshit! Tony cannot surpass! This time he really cannot surpass!" In the Forest Bar, the drunk fans were discussing Evan Doggety's reply to the fans in the name of the club's chairman. "I bet he must have drunk too much when writing this. He was confused. Does he know what he was talking about?"

"Triple crowns, double crowns, three European Champions Leagues, the only coach who defended the Champions League after the reform, has 12 championship trophys in eleven years, and at least one championship every year on average, which has become a cultural phenomenon. Some people criticized him for becoming a TV show host by writing books... To be honest, it is really difficult to surpass such a head coach." Pierce Bruce also responded to Evan Dogerty's open letter in his article.

"Actually, there is nothing wrong with Evan Doggetti's dialect in theory. Nowadays, football is becoming more and more utilitarian. Few coaches can work in a team for more than ten years, so Tony's departure is normal. For Nottingham Forest fans, it may be time to forget Tony Donne... But I think Mr Doggetti was wrong - although the Forest team ushered in the Tony Donne era after the Clauve era, Flores, who has never coached in other leagues in Spain, is definitely not the third person." Reinkell commented on the special edition of BBC's "Today's Event" program.

Perhaps only Carlspike, the guy who Pierce Bruce called "against Done a TV host by writing books" publicly supported Evan Doggety's remarks on the show: "This is why I think a head coach is too charming but not very good - not only the head coach, but also the player. When a person's influence and meaning of existence surpass the club and the team as a collective, many things often change. Why? He changed it was very correct.

Common things... For example, the Nottingham Forest is changing dynasties now, which is normal. Any team will have such a day, but because of Tony Donn's existence, the original normal behavior has become a betrayal of expelling heroes in the eyes of fans... Just kidding! Even the club chairman may be replaced, so why can't the head coach be replaced by someone else?" Anyway, Donn is still the head coach in England, and he doesn't care if he doesn't become the head coach of Nottingham Forest.

The media have different opinions about this open believer. Anyway, the fans don’t buy it.

What a bullshit change of dynasty, what a third glorious period, in the eyes of smart fans, it is all excuses, in order to cover up their work mistakes.

If the reply in this way can satisfy them, it is to see a ghost.

What should I do if I am not satisfied?

"Fans seem to have reached a climax of protests at the top of Nottingham Forest Club. The general protests can no longer express their disappointment and anger at the club. Just this morning, the club's chairman Evan Doggety received a 'death threat' in his office..."

The reporter in the camera stood at the door of Wilford, and there were many reporters around him, but more eye-catching than the reporter were five police cars flashing with red and blue police lights, and those policemen who were waiting around with serious expressions, as if they were facing a great enemy.

"Police believe this is what a radical fan of Nottingham Forest did..."

The officers who came out of Wilford were showing the media the evidence of "death threat" that had just been put into plastic bags - a white envelope and a bullet.

The crowd watching TV in the bar talked. Some people were applauding the radical fan's actions, believing that he had made a malice for everyone. Some people opposed it, believing that no matter how much they resent Evan Doggetti, they should not do anything "death threat".

Fatty John was not involved in such a debate. He was concerned about another thing.

He leaned his head and searched in the crowd for a long time, then asked the boss Burns next to him: "Have you seen Bill these days? Kenny?"

Burns lowered his head seriously for a while, then shook his head: "I haven't seen him here for two days."

John didn't say anything, he pursed his lips tightly, looking worried.

Burns looked up at the TV screen. He knew what he was worried about. He comforted: "Don't think about it, Bill is not that kind of person. To be honest, he is the cowardly one among you..."

"I always feel that Bill is abnormal during this period, and I hope it will be as you said..."

As he was talking, the skinny Bill pushed the door open, holding a white envelope in his hand.

After seeing the envelope, the fat man stared at Bill with his eyes until he walked straight to him and handed the envelope to Burns.

"Kenny, I'm not very educated. Please help me see if there is any problem with the letter. Also, give me a glass of wine. I'm so thirsty..."

John was still staring at him, and his expression seemed to be that Bill was holding not a letter, but a gun.

Burns opened the envelope readily and shook out the things inside - not a bullet or a knife. But a piece of paper folded in half.

Opening the paper, Burns looked up in surprise and looked at Bill again: "Confession?"

"I think I should apologize to Tony, so I want to write this... But you know I have not received any high education, and I have forgotten what I learned when I was in school. I held it in two days. I just wrote this little..." Bill pointed at the paper in Burns's hand embarrassedly. "I don't think Tony will have the chance to come here. We may be too small to meet. So I'd better write him a letter... If you have a solution, please give it to him."

Burns stopped talking and looked down at the letter.

John next to him pushed a golden beer to Bill.

Fine water droplets seeped out from the thick wall of the cup, and white foam came out from the mouth of the cup and hung on one side to inspire and exude.

"It's cold, it's very cool." John smiled at Bill.

A few days later, the "Death Threat" case was solved, and the police easily found the criminal through the fingerprints on the bullet. He was indeed a fanatical Nottingham Forest radical fan, and he had never had any experience in committing the crime, otherwise he would not have left fingerprints on the bullets or envelopes. He was dissatisfied with the club's senior management driving Tony Donne away and selling Pepe, so he sent such a letter to "learn a lesson" to Evan Doggety.

When he was arrested, the TV media followed the visit. The criminal was not at all unlucky. He was still shouting at the camera: "Get out of the way! We want Tony! We want Tony! Nottingham Forest was destroyed by such an idiot..."

He was still shouting. The policeman pressed his head and stuffed it into the police car. The door was closed and he was still shouting at the camera, but no one could hear his voice.

Although it was just a false alarm, Evan Dogette was very nervous. He sent all his wife and children to the United States as soon as possible, and strongly condemned this behavior in an interview.

Yes, he is the essential king of the club, and no one can threaten his rule, here he has supreme authority. The fans who only go out to protest are not valued at all. But this incident made him understand that no matter how small a person is, he can still make him, the king, feel trembling.

Don’t underestimate the fans, they really cannot shake your status as the chairman of the club. No matter how much they protest, as long as you don’t resign, there is no threat. But they can make you sleep uneasy every night...
