Rebirth of the Football Tycoon

Soriano was satisfied with the effect of his words, paused deliberately, and continued: Our chairman Mr. Pavis has decided to spend 300 million pounds to rebuild a modern stadium next to Meadow Lane. It is expected to accommodate 4w fans and reserve space for expansion.

As soon as Soriano's words came out, all the reporters were dumbfounded. Who would have thought that Notts County would throw out such a heaven-defying news.

Let's not talk about the stadium, just talking about the 300 million pounds, Notts County has the money to this level?

Notts County spent nearly 30 million pounds in the transfer market in the summer, which has made all fans admire Notts County. This is not a small amount. This is beyond the investment of most Premier League teams.

After that, Notts County made another big move, building a new youth training base of 70 million pounds, which was another big deal that shocked everyone.

They don't know where Notts County chairman Parvis' money comes from, although it is reported that Parvis' investment successfully made a small profit before the season, and these investments may just be the income of this investment.

But now that the 300 million pounds comes out, it's not that simple. Where did he get the money?

Arsenal is preparing to build a new stadium, and the current budget is increasing again and again, but it seems that the final figure is not more than 400 million pounds. You must know that the new Emirates Stadium is a large stadium that can accommodate 6w fans, while the new one in Notts County. The stadium has only 4w seats, and it is necessary to invest 300 million pounds. Is it more modern than Arsenal's new stadium?

And the next question is:

Notts County need a stadium that can accommodate 4w fans?

Although the Meadow Lane Stadium, which can accommodate 2w fans, is almost full and has become the most popular stadium in the League Two, can it be replaced by a stadium at once, does Notts County really have so many fans?

A series of questions flashed in the hearts of the reporters. They silently digested this shocking news and forgot to ask questions for a while.

After a brief silence, a reporter stood up and asked in disbelief: Mr. Soriano, today is not April Fool's Day. The Notts County Club held a press conference to tease us reporters, right?

The reporter's words instantly broke the silence, not only the other reporters smiled, but even David almost laughed.

We have nothing to do to entertain you uncrowned kings?

It seems that this reporter is definitely a novice. Even if he is not an intern, I am afraid that he has not been on the job for a long time. Otherwise, why would he ask such a childish question? It is a waste of opportunity to ask questions.

Soriano smiled and shook his head, but didn't speak, because even if he didn't answer, no one else would think Notts County was doing an April Fool's Day event.

Excuse me, what is Notts County's reason for building the new stadium? As far as I know, although the atmosphere at Meadow Lane is hot now, if it is suddenly expanded to 40,000 seats, I am afraid it will be vacant. A lot of actions, so there is no atmosphere at home! Isn't it worth the harm? A professional reporter stood up and asked.

David and Soriano looked at each other, the latter picked up the microphone and said loudly: What the reporters said is very reasonable, but you have overlooked a very important detail, that is, the new stadium needs at least There is a hypothetical construction period of nearly two years, and it will not be put into use immediately.”

The reporter was a little puzzled: What does that mean?

In other words, the new stadium should be put into use in the 2003-04 season. I want to ask this friend, what position will Notts County be in at that time? Soriano asked rhetorically with a smile.

The reporters below fell into a brief silence again, their minds running fast.

Yeah, the new stadium won't be ready for use in at least two years, so what heights will Notts County be at?

According to Notts County's current strong performance in League Two,

A move to League One after this season is not a surprise, and in many people's eyes, it's a matter of course.

And according to Notts County's current level of investment, is League One their ultimate goal?

Obviously, this is impossible!

With Notts County now being called the top squad in League One by the media, if they continue to invest heavily in the transfer market in the summer, they should also be the most popular team to upgrade in League One next season.

If all goes well, in the 2003-04 season, Notts County has become a new force in the Premier League. Will the stadium of 40,000 people look very big by then?

According to the current attendance rate of the Premier League, as long as it is not a club that is definitely relegated, the attendance rate can basically be guaranteed to be above 90%. Even those with a small number of attendance are also limited by the stadium capacity.

As long as Notts County can gain a foothold in the Premier League, there will be no vacancies, if not guaranteed new stadiums.

From this point of view, the construction of a new stadium in Notts County is really not absurd. It can only be said that they have a vision and have incomparable confidence in their own club, confident that they can successfully establish themselves in the Premier League.

Excuse me, Mr. David, where did you get your money from investing so much in the club. As far as we know, before this season, you were close to bankruptcy!

David knew that a reporter would definitely ask him this question today, but he couldn't tell the truth. The US emperor is frantically looking for people related to this terrorist attack all over the world. He, a guy who made a fortune from disasters, is still muffled. Keep it low-key, God knows if you will be suspected of having an affair with the terrorist incident.

Of course it is the investment income, but it is not convenient to disclose what the specific investment is! David replied indifferently.

It is not easy for the reporters to ask questions. After all, this is considered a commercial secret. Moreover, the reporters are not in this area. They are mulling how to write an article to report on the major football event of Notts County's preparation of a new stadium.

Next, the reporters asked a lot of questions about the new stadium, including design, construction and many other aspects, and about the fight between the three players, they had unknowingly left them behind, deliberately or unintentionally. forgotten.

Compared to the 300 million pound stadium, fights are paediatrics, and perhaps only tabloids that rely on lace news to gain eyeballs will pay special attention.

By the end of the press conference, the reporters scattered as if being chased by dogs, scrambling to go back to repay the first-hand information, and David knew that the impact of the fight had been minimized and their goal had been achieved.
