134 It is a skill to turn bad things into good things
When there was a hint of chaos at Wembley Stadium, Aldridge was startled at first, and then reacted quickly. He knew that he could not let the fans rush into the stadium to celebrate and turn into a confrontation with police security.
It would cause disaster, and he couldn't take the players away from the stadium, otherwise, this victory would not only cast a shadow, but also cause Millwall to suffer a heavy blow.
He has to stand up, whether as Millwall manager or club owner, he has to stand up.
So, he quickly asked his colleagues on the coaching staff to get the microphone from the stadium. The colleagues and players seemed to be running a relay. The microphone was soon passed to Aldridge's hand. At this time, the players couldn't help but gather around him.
, Aldridge asked Materazzi and Southgate to serve as stepping stones so that he could at least speak more clearly.
After his words came out, the entire stadium fell silent. Millwall fans stopped and stood there, observing the situation around them. When they found that police or security guards were pushing fans to the ground, they did not take action.
with an anger
Their eyes were fixed on the policemen who took action. Under their eager gazes, the policemen and security guards stopped their movements and began to walk out uneasily. They did not dare to stay alone among the fans for fear of angering this group of gangsters with haloes above their heads.
fans.
"Why do you want to attack the people of Millwall? Why? This is the day of every Millwall person, a moment that belongs to them. Mr. Security, I respect your work, but please be considerate of us and considerate of Millwall.
My people, one hundred and ten years, one hundred and ten years, this is not just the presence of Milvo
The football fans are waiting, as well as their parents, grandparents, and even grandfathers! This championship belongs to them, please don’t stop their celebration, let them come over and release their emotions on this glorious stadium. We are not thugs.
We are not hooligans, we are just football people who have waited too long for a championship."
Aldridge's words made all the Millwall fans nod in unison, with tears in their eyes and excitement.
The police and security guards were already standing at the edge of the stadium. They didn't know what to do next, especially as the already crowded stadium became quiet. There were no fans running, they just clustered together.
"Whatever you want to do, hug our players, sing and dance on this court, or take a commemorative photo here, you can do it, but please be aware of your companions around you, especially the elderly.
and young children, don't let them get hurt, this day, this
At this moment, we should celebrate together and leave beautiful memories together. We don’t care if others like or hate us, but we can prove to the world that we are the purest fans. Long live Millwall! Thank you, wow,
Gareth, catch me, ah..."
At the end of Aldridge's words, his trembling legs finally failed to maintain his balance. He fell backwards and fell. Fortunately, Jenson hugged him, which also made the fans whose eyes were locked on him break out in cold sweat.
They don't want the young coach Aldrich to fall into trouble.
The infectious words penetrated the hearts of every Millwall person, and they began to stand on the court in an orderly manner, applauding, and cheering Millwall's name, Aldridge's name, and every player's name.
Even the Aston Villa fans who stayed in the stands began to applaud.
The older fans among them understand the inner feelings of Millwall fans very well.
Fourteen years ago, they had the honor to witness Aston Villa reach the top of Europe. The fans who attended the game even wanted to take the turf of the stadium home to collect it.
This kind of emotion does not need to be brewed, nor can it be produced in advance. When you are in that special moment and witness history, it will naturally be revealed, and people will lose control and cannot contain the explosion of emotion.
The audience burst into thunderous applause. Wiseman in the royal box finally showed a smile on his face, and he also started to applaud. CEO Kelly whispered in his ear, making Wiseman nod with excitement.
The partnership of powerful figures like the chairman and executive of the Football Association is a bit like the secretary and mayor of China. One is in charge of organizational discipline and the other is in charge of economic development. CEO Kelly is naturally for the promotion of English football and market profits.
Yes, he immediately thought of a good way to use this League Cup final as a positive publicity.
But of course it’s not about encouraging fans to rush onto the field, it’s about the legendary scene of Millwall ending a century without a championship. In the scene in front of them, the fans applauded and cheered for the players on the field, throwing every player and coach into the sky.
Taking photos with each other, hugging each other, and chatting cordially, every picture will have positive plasticity.
Turning bad things into good ones is the skill.
In the eyes of Kelly and Wiseman, Aldridge, a coach who is not yet twenty years old, is like a pervert who is salivating after seeing a beautiful woman.
Aldridge is from England, and he won the championship trophy in his coaching career at such a young age.
How legendary?
Being used as a promotional star for English football naturally attracts attention.
Although the stadium was overcrowded, it was still a sea of joy. The players' families or girlfriends stood on the sidelines and were full of joy, while some single players let the fans' young children sit on their shoulders. The scene was warm and touching.
When the awards began, the Aston Villa players walked into the royal box first, with Brian Little trailing behind. The 40-year-old head coach deliberately shook Aldridge's hand again and said:
He said sincerely from the bottom of his heart: "Aldridge, today you and your team not only won the game, but also won the respect of the world."
Aldrich smiled and said nothing. At this moment, his suit had gone somewhere. It was probably secretly hidden by an unknown fan.
After he and his players walked into the royal box, the players accepted the championship medals. Aldridge was the last one to walk over. The famous football players in England who did not know each other kindly chatted a few more words in Aldridge's ear.
.
Most of them are words of encouragement and praise.
When he arrived in front of FA Chairman Wiseman, Wiseman held Aldridge's hand, bent down and said in his ear: "Aldridge, Millwall gave me a heart attack just now."
"Then you must hate me very much."
Aldrich replied with a smile.
Wiseman didn't realize that he was talking about the behavior of those fans, so he asked: "Why do you say that? I have always liked your game."
"If my team doesn't reach the final, nothing will happen."
"Haha, no, what happened just now was wonderful. Aldrich, you did a great job, but next time let the fans exercise some restraint."
"I will work hard, and I don't want good things to turn bad."
"Okay, I look forward to seeing you here next time."
"I think so. I'm just afraid you'll find me annoying then."
Wiseman and Aldridge chatted for a long time before finally straightening up, walking over and handing the English League Cup championship trophy to Millwall captain Southgate.
Southgate and Nedvěd were on the left and right, and they were holding half of the trophy. To be honest, the League Cup trophy was a bit small, and they each held half. The visual sense was really funny.
The two captains turned to look at their teammates who were waiting impatiently, and asked in unison, "Are you ready?"
Teammates with medals hanging on their chests waved their arms in applause. Southgate and Nedvěd looked at each other and then raised the trophy together.
"The winner of the English League Cup in the 1995-1996 season is: Millwall!"
The championship song rang out throughout the stadium, and many fans looking up at the royal box below the stadium could not restrain their emotions, with tears filling their eyes, and some even burst into tears. These tears of joy were unbearable for them.
Aldridge untied his tie and silently walked down the stairs. He knew that the players were celebrating at this moment, which they deserved, and Aldridge did not want to steal the limelight from the players at this time.
A smart head coach knows how to satisfy the vanity of his players and should not foolishly take all the credit for himself.
But as soon as he reached the bottom of the steps, someone held his shoulders. When he looked back, Southgate laughed and said, "Boss, what are you doing?"
Without Aldrich opening his mouth, Schneider bent down and picked up his thigh, shouting: "Don't even think about running away."
Southgate, Schneider, Trezeguet, and Materazzi carried Aldridge, who was sprawled out, and ran onto the court, followed by all the players.
Aldrich couldn't laugh or cry, "Are you all little monsters? Do you think of me as Tang Monk and prepare to throw me into the pot?"
When he came to the court, Aldridge was thrown into the sky. He went up and down, and the players never tired of it...
On the return bus, Aldrich was the last one to get on the bus. He was full of alcohol and his clothes were still wet. During the celebration, Larson poured champagne into the trophy, and then unexpectedly walked out of Aldrich.
He was soaked in the water behind him.
Although the players were physically exhausted after playing the game, they were still in high spirits. They took photos with the trophies on the bus and sang songs. When Aldrich came up, he pressed his hands to signal the players to quiet down, and everyone looked on.
Staring at him with a smile.
"Two days, you have two days off, return to the team for training on Wednesday morning, and then everything will be as usual."
Aldridge's words made the players cheer, and Makelele asked loudly: "Boss, are you coming tonight?"
As a local and captain, Southgate will organize a party in the evening, and all the players on the team will attend. This is not just for fun, because they will bring their families.
Aldrich shook his head and said with a smile: "You guys have fun, I have my own plan."
The players were laughing, and most of them had bad intentions.
They probably all guessed that Aldrich would go on a date with the suddenly famous singer.
Aldridge also did not explain that as a head coach, he should not appear at players' gatherings, unless it was an obscene party. If Aldridge knew about it, he would definitely go, but he would drag the players away.
He will have fun with Brady and the others at Sander's bar tonight to celebrate.
