Chapter 292 Meadow Lane Farewell Match

Regarding the issue of Messi getting a labor certificate, David thought for a long time, but in fact there was no safe solution. After all, the special genius clause is not so easy to apply for.

After thinking about it, I didn't have a clue, so I just discussed it with Rick Link. If there is really no way, then I can only choose to rent to Bei Weilun and get an EU passport three years later.

When David told Rick Link his concerns, Rick Link was stunned for a moment, but then burst into laughter, making David inexplicable.

Mr. Chairman, you may be too focused on your own words. In fact, it is not only when you play in the national team that you can be considered an international footballer. You can also be called an international footballer in the national youth team. Moreover, Messi is under 21 years old, as long as the past year If you represent the national youth team in more than 70% of the games, you will be eligible to apply for a labor certificate. Rick Link said with a smile.

David was stunned, no wonder he always felt that he had overlooked something!

As for the National Youth Team, it is much easier to operate. Although Messi has not yet been selected for the National Youth Team, as long as Notts County recommends the past, with Messi's own strength and proper operation by Notts County, there is no problem at all. A year later, when Messi reaches the required number of appearances, he can apply for a labor certification and play for Notts County.

Finally, after thinking about it, David felt that his whole body was two pounds lighter.

Then before Notts County was the farewell battle at Meadow Lane.

Because of the opening of the new stadium, the Meadow Lane Stadium in Notts County will lose the home position of Notts County's first team this season and become the playing field of Notts County's youth academy, which has accompanied Notts County for more than 100 years. Witnessed all the ups and downs of Notts County, and finally unloaded the heavy responsibility of history.

The last home game of last season was supposed to be the farewell game at Meadow Lane, but because Notts County still had an important game, it could only be postponed for a while, and a special farewell game seemed to be more formal and grand.

For this farewell battle, Notts County did not specifically invite any club, but chose the Notts County youth team as the team's opponent. Perhaps this game is not intense enough, but it has more symbolic meaning .

As the current chairman of Notts County, David personally invited many old Notts County veterans, stars who once played for Notts County, and even many people who used to work in Notts County, although they are already old. Well, they can only sit in a wheelchair, but the only thing that has not changed is their dedication to the team.

Naturally, no tickets will be charged for the game, but due to the limited number of seats at the Meadow Lane Stadium, many fans are still unable to enter the stadium to watch the farewell match at the Meadow Lane Stadium, but it is like a drizzle from the sky.

There is no way to stop the enthusiasm of the fans, even if they can only watch the farewell game on the big screen around the Meadow Lane Stadium, they are still happy.

Those old people who had witnessed the rise and fall of Notts County together at Meadow Lane had tears in their eyes and their hearts filled with remembrance.

Although they knew that Notts County's move to the new stadium was a great opportunity for the team's development, but this stadium has brought them close to a lifetime of memories, how can it be so easy to let go!

Countless banners hang in the sky, seeming to tell the sincerity of the fans.

Meadow Lane, bye!

That's what fans want to say about the stadium beneath their feet.

In this game, Notts County's first team naturally defeated the youth team by a large score, but the youth team players showed no stage fright in front of their big brother. Even if the first team was a bit watery, the youth team could score. Two goals are enough to make them proud.

The fans also saw the future of the team through this farewell battle. These are the hopes for the future of Notts County.

After this farewell battle, Meadow Lane has officially completed its historical mission. From today, it will start to accompany the Notts County youth team and embark on a new journey.

In fact, a staff member mentioned to David that after the completion of the new stadium, Meadow Lane could be sold, at least as an income, but David rejected this proposal without hesitation, which is not only a matter of consideration The result is a kind of emotional inheritance, an inheritance from the cheap old man he has never met in this life.

Old Parvis has dedicated his life to Notts County, but he has not been able to lead Notts County to complete its revival. Now he is taking Notts County on the road of revival step by step. I believe that if the cheap old man knew about it, he should also be Very pleased!

However, many people who like doing nothing wrong said that Notts County is a waste of resources and should be condemned by the public!

Here, most of them are Mansfield fans.

No way, when the rival team in the same city is building a new stadium, they can only watch the game in an older stadium. Comparing the two, who can afford this gap.

Although under the strong management of the Pozzo family last season, Mansfield was successfully promoted to the League One, but in this way, their team has become the smallest, worst and most backward home in the entire League. Disgrace to the whole of England.

At this time, Notts County announced that their old home Meadow Lane will be included in the youth training camp system and become a competition venue for the youth training camp.

Even though Meadow Lane is relatively old, it is not too dilapidated due to the renovations of Notts County over the years. Even if it becomes the home ground of a Premier League team, it is more than enough. The only shortcoming is that the number of fans is a little less.

If you can use the Meadow Lane Stadium for your own team, it will be perfect!

That's the general thought of Mansfield fans.

But they also know that this is not realistic at all. With the bad relationship between the two teams, even if Notts County blows up the stadium, it will not be transferred to Mansfield.

Therefore, they can only say a few sour words to express their unwillingness.

For such a guy who can only make a fuss with his mouth, David has always ignored it. If you don't have it or not, I won't give it to you.

However, he did pay a little attention to the two rival teams in the same city.

If Notts County had kicked Mansfield a few times, I am afraid that this team controlled by the Pozzo family would have been promoted to League One, and now, after a delay of a season, it has finally rushed to League One.

With the memory of Watford in his previous life, David knew that maybe Pozzo couldn't make a giant, but it is not difficult to bring an ordinary team into the Premier League with abundant resources.

I don't know if it's because of the continuous stimulation from David and Notts County. Daugherty has also made many moves in Nottingham Forest this summer. He has made frequent moves in the transfer market, and has recruited a group of powerful players. , If the strong team is well integrated, it is not impossible to be promoted to the Premier League.

Notts County is not a metropolis, and its population cannot be compared with cities such as London and Manchester. Once three Premier League teams appear in Notts County at the same time, it will be really exciting.

I'm afraid Notts County's base of fans is not enough for the three clubs! (To be continued.)
