1085 Housekeeping for BIG4
Just half a year ago, Tottenham captain Ridley King's drunken and troubled behavior shocked the English football world, and Tottenham received punishment from the FA for this.?
As a result, after 6 months, Tottenham Hotspur exposed another drunken scandal, with as many as 16 players participating this time.
Although Tottenham currently ranks fifth in the UK, there is a great chance of entering the Champions League next season.
But coach Redknapp can't laugh.
According to the Daily Mirror yesterday, Lao Lei was preparing to severely punish his 16 players today because they held a Christmas carnival without their knowledge and were drunk and causing trouble.
According to preliminary estimates, the average weekly salary of these 16 Tottenham players is about 40,000 pounds per person, which means that the fine this time is at least 130,000 pounds. If the fine is finally implemented, it will undoubtedly become the most heavyweight internal punishment of the team in British history.
16 Tottenham players, including Robbie Keane, recently applied to the club to go out collectively, on the grounds that they went to participate in a golf event, but they secretly held a Christmas carnival party.
Because the party was partying until the early morning and seriously harassed the rest of nearby residents, several drunk players even had an argument with nearby residents, so the residents called the police.
As a result, the arrival of the police finally stopped the party from continuing, and the incident was also exposed by some local tabloids.??
After seeing the report, Lao Lei said: "They are not free to do this, and I will impose severe punishment on each of them."
He will announce the punishment results for these 16 players today.
"I'm angry, this has to be dealt with seriously. They didn't have my permission, so they're responsible for their actions. I don't know what reason they have to get together, the team is so bad now, ordinary people can go out and drink, or have fun, but as players, they can't. I'll punish them for at least two weeks' wages."
Coincidentally, after Manchester United lost to Fulham at O:3, the whole team held a Christmas party at Ferdinand's restaurant "Rosso". According to internal information from insiders, the party was extremely crazy, and an accident occurred on the way, and the ambulance arrived at the scene. Rooney was also rumored to be suspected of being injured, and many people attending the party the next day. The street scenes of many hangovers became the material for lace tabloids to attract attention.
Ferguson was furious after learning about it. He said in an interview: "When the team is getting bigger and bigger, we can celebrate Christmas, and the players have the right to celebrate Christmas. But considering that we will return to the field to fight for the defending league championship on the 26th, players should maintain their will and know what they are doing, what they should do, and what they should not do!"
It is unknown how Manchester United handles the party incident, but Fleet Street still lists this as a management dereliction of duty by Manchester United and Tottenham.
Even though Liverpool will hold parties, it is relatively "quiet". Lian Gerald, the honorary citizen of Liverpool City, used to cause trouble in the bar and fight with the National People's Congress, but now it has been much more restrained. As for Arsenal, they are basically good babies under the professor. They rarely cause trouble outside and cause trouble.
Manchester United and Tottenham made headlines, and Chelsea captain Terry was not willing to be lonely and wanted to make headlines!
This year, the reputation of England national team captain Terry was greatly affected by his mother's stealing and his father's drug trafficking, but now, the world-class defender with a weekly salary of £160,000 is also involved in a scandal.
According to the British "World News", the Chelsea captain actually robbed himself and turned into a scalper to sell tickets to the club's Cobenham training base to the outside world.
News of the World has always been known for exposing celebrity scandals. For example, Terry's mother stole a department store and his father's underground drug trafficking was first made public. This time, News of the World pointed the finger at the Chelsea captain himself.
The newspaper said that Terry took the initiative to find a notorious scalper Tony Bruce, who acted as the middleman in the deal. The two collected 2000 pounds of cash from three reporters from the World News, disguised as wealthy businessmen, with a total of 10,000 pounds.
During the conversation between the two sides, Terry insisted that the three "rich businessmen" keep their secrets strictly. He said: "If this matter is revealed to the club, it may be a bit...you understand what I mean."
To justify himself, Terry even took the guise of charity, claiming that he would donate 8ooo pounds to the "Maksh" Foundation, a charity organization dedicated to the rescue of critically ill children, and the remaining 2ooo pounds were handed over to Bruce as a share of the transaction.
Then Terry brought the "rich businessmen" to Chelsea's five-star training base in Cobenham.
Generally speaking, as a place where the team practices skills and tactics, outsiders are not allowed to visit, unless it is visited by some important groups. For example, the Chinese Football Association delegation came to the Cobenham Training Base for on-site inspection not long ago.
Of course, Terry's actions were not approved by head coach Ancelotti. He took three "discount guests" to visit the Cobenham training base in full. The group even ran into Barack and Drogba in a bath.
At noon, Terry arranged lunch for the "guests" in the canteen of the training base. It was here that the disguised reporter of the World News handed over the 10,000 pounds of cash in a black paper bag to Bruce. Terry smiled knowingly when he saw it.
It is particularly ironic that Chelsea coach Ancelotti was sitting not far away. Even the Italian who was enjoying lunch could not have imagined that the captain of his appointed team had turned into a scalper and was selling tickets to the Cobenham training base.
If the person who disguises himself as a reporter, such as the detectives sent by other clubs, then the technical and tactical system on which Chelsea survives will no longer be a secret, and the consequences are really unimaginable.
After the transaction was completed, Bruce once again warned the "rich businessmen" that they must keep secrets strictly, and that once things go wrong, he will bear all responsibilities.
"If things change, you have to say 'John is unaware' and John will deny that he can push the fault on me, and you have to say 'It was Tony Bruce', I shouldn't have done that."
At this time, Terry echoed: "That's right."
It is easy to infer from the two of them that this is not their first collaboration, and the News of the World confirmed that Terry and Bruce have arranged at least three similar "visits".
When disguised journalists introduced them more "business", Terry revealed: "Yes, we can arrange it, but you have to tell them that they can't talk about it to anyone, and once someone shows up, we can't do it anymore."
And Bruce, who knew Terry since he was a Chelsea student, insisted that such activities must be "very, very low-key".
However, even though Terry and Bruce are low-key, their every word and deed in this deal has been recorded by the secret camera of a reporter from the News of the World, which also claimed that if the Chelsea club and the FA need it, they are willing to provide video evidence.
There is no doubt that Terry's actions will arouse the fury of the club's senior management and head coach Ancelotti, because he wears the captain's armband, even led outsiders into Ancelotti's tactical arrangement room. On the blackboard of the room, the tactical arrangements for this round against West Ham United are clearly written. (To be continued.)
