Chapter 131 Volume [-] Nottingham's Sky Press Conference (ask for a monthly ticket)

In the hearts of the reporters, the game was full of ups and downs, but the press conference after the game was the real focus.Reporters were eager to hear what the coaches of both sides had to say about the fan riots in the middle of the game.

So not long after the game ended, the reporters finished their interviews in the mixed zone and gathered at the press conference, waiting for the head coaches of both sides to come out.

Twain was the first to walk out, followed by the downcast Alan McCleary, the head coach of Millwall.According to common sense, the head coaches of both sides should shake hands as a compliment, but Tang En sat in his seat with his hands in his pockets, and did not intend to shake hands with the opposing head coach.McCleary stood on the stage in a daze for a moment, then sat down in his seat in embarrassment.

As soon as the host announced the official start of the press conference, the hands of the reporters all went up.

What the reporters are most concerned about is obviously not the amazing score of 7:1. Any kind of score is possible on the football field, and 7:1 has not gone beyond the scope of the earth and reached Mars.This game has the most publicity value and gimmick, and the story that can attract the public's attention the most happened in the stands. The insulting singing of Millwall fans and the subsequent riots caused by the fans of both sides were the objects of questions from reporters. .

For these questions, Dunn first grabbed the microphone.Say what you have to say early and get out of here for Nottingham.He didn't want to sit with the person next to him for too long.

"I understand that you all want to know what happened in the stands, but I don't want to mention it. I suggest you ask the chairman of the Millwall club and the manager next to me, they should know best what their supporters are. Who are they?" These words directly put almost all Millwallers on the opposite side of Twain, but he didn't care, and he didn't win by pleasing the opponent's fans. "I just want to say that I am very happy with my players in the second half and they deserved the win."

Seeing that Tang En seemed to be about to leave, a reporter rushed to ask: "Excuse me, Mr. Tang En! Your team's performance in the first half and the second half were completely different. You told them during the intermission What, do you have any special arrangements?"

Tang En stared at the reporter who asked the question and said: "I tell my players, if they are angry at the singing of the Millwall fans, then gag them with a goal. Sing once, score a goal. Sing One goal at a time. Until they can't make a sound. I'm glad my players did it."

Then he ignored the commotion caused by these words, put the microphone on the table, and got up to leave.

The host reminded him: "Sir, the press conference is not over yet..."

"It's not over yet for him." Dunn pointed to McCleary, "I have nothing to say, Mr. Host. Everyone!" He said loudly to the reporter, "If you have any questions, just ask Alan Mike Mr. Riley!"

After speaking, he turned and stepped down.

The depressed McCleary muttered behind his back: "I've never seen such an unmannered person..."

Tang En stopped halfway because of these words. He turned and looked at McCleary, his eyes were fierce as if he wanted to eat people. "Demeanor? Mr. Alan McCleary..." He spoke slowly and clearly, word by word. "One thing I can confirm, my demeanor must be billions of times better than you and your supporters in the stands!"

After speaking, he didn't care how the excited reporters called his name, and left the small press conference hall without looking back.

Nottingham Forest played Millwall 7:1 away and successfully entered the semi-finals.But there were not many reports about this score. Instead, the fan riots in the stands made the headlines of various British media after the game.

The media contacted the football hooligan brawl after the match between Nottingham Forest and Millwall at the end of last season, which resulted in the death of an innocent child, and put such a headline on the newspaper: The return of football hooligans!The return of football violence!

The pent-up excitement came alive on the page.

In fact, this attitude of the media started from the catastrophe 14 years ago.

Since the Hillsborough tragedy, British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, who has been watching football very disliked, finally found an excuse to rectify this "violent sport".She entrusted Justice Taylor to conduct a detailed independent investigation, aiming at the British football environment at that time, and launched two versions of the "Taylor Investigation Report" in half a year.

In this famous report, Mr. Judge Taylor made various suggestions based on the attitude of being responsible for the sport of football and the whole British society.But the British government has only taken a few of them: such as comprehensively repairing the stadium, converting all standing seats to sitting seats, and demolishing the separation wall.

In 1973, the British government established a stadium safety license review and issuance agency, and those stadiums that do not meet the safety conditions will not be issued safety licenses.But the security license of Hillsborough Stadium, where the tragedy happened, has expired ten years ago!According to the ten-year-expired security license of the Hillsborough Stadium, the third and fourth areas of the west stand of the stadium can accommodate 2000 people.But its actual maximum capacity is less than 700 people.When the tragedy happened, more than 3000 fans rushed into the two communities from an underground passage, which directly led to the disaster of crowding and trampling.

Although subjectively speaking, what Mrs. Thatcher did was to suppress football, a sport she hated, but objectively it did promote the reform of English football.People are now able to watch football in stadiums with plastic seats, dedicated emergency exits, and completely refurbished stadiums, thanks to the Taylor Report and the Thatcher government.

The "Taylor Report" also laid the foundation for the establishment of the Premier League in terms of security and hardware facilities. In 1992, the Premier League, which had been brewing for a long time, made its grand debut, and immediately attracted the attention of fans all over the world with its wonderful games.Under the highly market-oriented and commercialized operation, the Premier League is getting better every year.It seems that English football has returned to its former glory days, and even the stubborn disease of football hooliganism seems to have gradually disappeared from the English top flight.

In fact, on the issue of football hooliganism, it is not only the fans, but also the British government and the media that should take responsibility and atone for those tragedies.

Maybe 90.00% of football fans in England are innocent, but as long as [-]% of football hooligans exist, everyone else will follow suit.In Scotland Yard, the British Police Headquarters, there is a "blacklist" for recording the identity of football hooligans. This list has been established since the Thatcher government. More than ten years have passed. The principle Madam once euphemistically put forward - would rather kill three thousand by mistake than let one go.

So countless innocent fans followed suit.Fans with legitimate careers and no criminal record were inexplicably on the blacklist of football hooligans and were banned from going abroad to watch football.Maybe the reason is just that "they once entered the same stadium with football hooligans" "they drank in the same bar as football hooligans"...

Of course, the role of the media in fueling the flames cannot be underestimated when the government treats football hooligans so brutally.

A representative example in the history of English football is enough to illustrate the role of the media in football hooliganism.

Liverpool fans in Merseyside will never forget their hatred for The Sun, as the influential newspaper in the UK competed with The Mirror for attention following the Hillsborough tragedy. Grabbing news resources, they did not hesitate to compile an on-the-spot report to sensationalize the public. They succeeded in doing this. Until now, because of the media reports at that time, many people think that the Hillsborough tragedy was caused by the "notorious" Liverpool fans. Riots lead to thinking they "deserved to die".

The front page of The Sun that day was called "the most disgraceful front page headline in news history" - THE` TRUTH!
The so-called truth of the Sun is that the Liverpool fans deserved to die, because it was the drunken brawls that led to this tragedy.They vividly described to readers what happened at the Hillsborough Stadium: Those "scumbag" Liverpool fans took advantage of the chaos to snatch the wallets, clothes, watches of the deceased... urinated on the police who maintained order, beat those who gave artificial respiration to the wounded The rescue staff even tried to gang-rape a dead female fan!
They originally designed the headline for this report as "You are scum", which was later changed to "The Truth" before publication.This is so ironic, what is the real truth?
Since the Thatcher government characterized the fans as "internal enemies", it was impossible for the government to consider the safety of the enemies, and no one cared about their innocence.They even hope that the media will unanimously define the Hillsborough tragedy as a football hooligan riot, so that they can perfectly prove how correct and far-sighted their bad attitude towards football is.Prime Minister Thatcher's personal adviser at the time still insists on the views of the Sun newspaper at that time, which is a proof.

The real truth didn't surface slowly until several years later, but this kind of truth only exists among the people.After countless trials, the British court ruled that the Hillsborough tragedy was an "accident" and that the dereliction of duty police officers did not need to bear any responsibility for it. What's more meaningful is that the evidence that led them to make such a ruling was fabricated by the police from.A British court later refused to reopen the case because private prosecutors have no right of appeal under British law.
