It is already midnight after returning from Bucharest to Southampton.
Everyone in and out of Southampton, upon arriving at Southampton Airport, did not go to Staplewood and rushed directly to Wangjiang Pavilion.
Huang Tianshun and others have also received the news early, and have already prepared a very rich celebration banquet to welcome the team.
Soon, the whole Wangjiang Pavilion suddenly became a group.
With a thousand members of the Saints Fan Club, Southampton up and down, plus the guests invited by the team, the whole scene was noisy, so lively.
Zhuang Ziqing didn't like this kind of occasion, so Yang Huan directly asked Long Wu to send her to the villa in Southampton.
I stayed in Wangjiang Pavilion and celebrated with the guests and players.
Drinking so much that he himself has forgotten how much he drank.
Yang Huan didn't get out until Skudmore came to invite him to talk outside.
The two of them didn't go out, and walked directly along the River Test in the open-air restaurant area of Wangjiang Pavilion.
"The city of Southampton has developed rapidly in recent years. I heard that the renovation of the old city is about to start, and it will soon change again!"
Scudmore said somewhat sorrowfully.
Yang Huan smiled faintly, noncommittal.
The Premier League is actually like a management company that is responsible for the operation of the Premier League.
And Scudmore is the CEO of this management company.
In layman's terms, he is the butler of the Premier League.
His power is given by these twenty teams in the Premier League.
But Skudmoore has been in charge of the Premier League for many years, and during his time in charge, it was precisely the most successful period of time in the commercial development of the Premier League, so Skudmoore has a pivotal influence in the Premier League.
But there is a major decision to make, sorry, he doesn't have this right.
Then all the owners or executives of the Premier League clubs have to be called to a meeting.
This is the Premier League Presidential Summit held every three months in the Premier League!
Take the simplest example, the winter break.
The giant teams are eager to have a winter break and have called for it for many years. Even Skudmoore agrees, but the reason is that the middle and lower teams that occupy the majority do not care about you!
Your top teams have to fight on multiple lines. You have to consider European competitions, but we don't need them.
Our mid- and lower-level teams only need to take care of the domestic cups, and even the cups do not have our share. We only have to play in the league. There is not much pressure. Pressure is a matter for your top teams. Who will let you fight on multiple lines?
Can't stand it?
If you can't stand it, don't open so many fronts. Who is forcing you?
I wish you had a terrible record!
Therefore, when voting, the majority of votes were against the winter break.
Sometimes things are so troublesome and so interesting!
When Scudmore saw Yang Huan not speaking, he smiled bitterly in his heart.
Don't look at this young master Huan, but his abacus is very precise in his heart.
"Southampton has also undergone earth-shaking changes in the past two years. The stars have gathered and the strength is tyrannical. Now, it is the Champion of the Europa League. It takes a step each year and will participate in the Premier League next season!"
Yang Huan still didn't say a word, he was waiting for Scudmore to get into the topic.
The chief executive of the Premier League smiled bitterly in his heart and sighed. The bad guy still has to do it himself.
"Mr. Yang Huan, to tell you the truth, in the past two or three months, the league has had a lot of opinions on some of Southampton's practices."
"Oh?" Yang Huan narrowed his eyes, but was not surprised at all.
Southampton's victory in the Premier League made it clear that the carts and horses are going to share the cake.
Every season, there will be a newly promoted horse to enter the Premier League, but the same newly promoted horse will receive different treatment.
Which one is the most popular?
It is Norwich and his like, the typical one-season Premier League team.
These teams are not strong, financial resources are not strong, in the English Champions League sideways is okay, but in the Premier League?
Ha, sorry, the big buddies will teach you how to behave!
Generally speaking, this kind of team is the most popular, because there is almost no threat to the existing Premier League team!
There is also a team that has just been relegated but quickly upgraded again, such as West Ham United this season.
The Hammers have already qualified for promotion and will return to the Premier League next season.
For such teams, the Premier League is usually more tolerant.
After all, they are all old acquaintances, and the network and personal connections are there.
But there is another kind of team that has not yet been promoted to the Premier League, but has already made its name. It is powerful and wealthy. Almost everyone believes that it will definitely be able to secure a position in the Premier League.
This kind of team is rare, such as Fulham, which was acquired by the rich Egyptians.
However, this kind of team is also the least popular, because once this team gains a foothold in the Premier League, there will definitely be other teams that will be relegated in the new season.
As for who was downgraded, it's hard to say!
However, generally speaking, the middle and lower teams generally have more opinions on the promotion.
Powerful teams generally don't have much opinion on the promotion, nor do they feel much.
There are only a few superb teams in the Premier League. The newly promoted team can't shake their status at all, and they don't have to worry about relegation, so they don't care about it.
But the situation is different this year!
Southampton has been promoted to the Premier League with four golden titles including the League Cup, the FA Cup, the Champions League and the UEFA Champions League. The Saints team has a lot of stars, strength and wealth.
No one can see that the saint's ambition is not a relegation!
They are here for the top four in the league!
So, the promotion of Southampton is unwelcome for every team in the Premier League.
Downstream teams worry about relegation, midstream teams worry about Europa League qualification, and upstream teams worry about the top four in the league.
This situation has never happened in the history of the Premier League!
So, in the past few months, these Premier League bosses have been picking and digging holes for Southampton.
"The big point everyone has a big opinion about is Southampton's jersey issue!"
Skudmore said with a wry smile.
This is nothing new.
This is an old question, okay?
Ferguson had criticized Southampton for advertising sponsorship on the jersey, but in the end it was nothing.
However, the Premier League has a clear stipulation that there is no need to advertise for sponsorship on the shirt.
Do you comply with Southampton?
Not comply?
Okay, don't come to the Premier League, we can rest assured!
comply with?
Then you have to lose business income!
Yang Huan couldn't help laughing when he heard Scudmore finish.
"Mr. Scuddermore, the commercial sponsorships we have signed have not yet expired!"
Scudmore thought this matter was tricky.
What do the Chinese say?
Oh, by the way, it is like killing a parent!
Southampton finally got these sponsorships. Regardless of whether these sponsorships are truly Yang Huan’s personal property as the rumors say, they are for the commercial sponsorship. Will the Saints give up?
"This contract hasn't expired. If we unilaterally tear up the contract, how much will we have to lose?"
Scudmore frowned.
Yes, to unilaterally tear up the contract, how to get such a large liquidated damage?
In the past, many of those British championship teams were promoted, and many of them were difficult to sponsor. Who is like Southampton?
The ads hit the shirt collar directly!
Southampton has an advertisement on each of the two cuffs, one on the neckline and two on the hem. There are a total of five advertising sponsorships on the jersey.
Business income can vary from large to small, with the large being as high as 30 million pounds per year, and the lesser being more than 10 million pounds.
This is an amazing income!
"Mr. Scudmore, our advertisements have been very low-key, so small and have no effect, I don't understand, why can't we play?"
Skudmoore listened and smiled bitterly: "In the rules of the Premier League, it is expressly stipulated that no advertising is allowed on the shirt."
"That's different. We have been advertising since the League of Legends. These contracts have been signed long ago. We first signed the sponsorship before becoming a Premier League team. The situation is special!"
Skudmoore smiled even more embarrassed. Master Huan, this is going to make a special case in the rules.
"Mr. Yang Huan, I can also understand the difficulties of Southampton, but I am afraid that other teams will disagree!"
Speaking of this, Skudmore thought about it, "Or, Mr. Yang Huan, this time the Premier League chairman summit, would you personally explain it and seek your opinions?"
Yang Huan knew in his heart that although Skudmore was in a high position, it was not necessarily important.
"Well, I will personally attend the Premier League Presidents Summit!"
He also really wanted to see what tricks those Premier League club owners plan to play.
Speaking of tricks, I like tricks the most, let’s see who is playing tricks!
Skudmoore can't help it. If he still keeps this kind of thing neutral, otherwise it will be difficult to do a lot of work in the future.
"And one more thing."
"Ok?"
"When I was in Bucharest just now, the CEO of Sky TV, Mr. Jeremy Dallock, told me that he planned to restart the Premier League broadcast rights negotiations tomorrow and strive to complete it in a short time."
"This is a good thing!" Yang Huan laughed.
Southampton now has a Europa League champion in hand, and the broadcast fee for the next season will certainly not be less.
The bosses of those Premier League clubs are probably looking jealous and find an excuse to disgust themselves.
"At the same time, they hope to complete the transformation of the broadcast system at St. Mary's Stadium as soon as possible."
The broadcast level of the Premier League is second to none in the world of football.
Isn’t it just the broadcast stations in the stadium?
Southampton is now back in the Premier League, and the broadcasters have high hopes. The previous transformation of the broadcast system was suspended because of Abramovich and the protests of some middle and lower teams in the Premier League.
It makes sense to continue now.
"Okay, I will arrange this matter!" Yang Huan readily agreed.
This is also a good thing for Southampton.
Skudmoore has only two things in total, one is dragging, and the other is solved, and he feels pretty good.
But as long as he thinks of the upcoming Premier League presidential summit, his heart will be hung into his voice.
With this eldest young master's behavior, I still don't know what to make of it.
The prosperity of the world is all for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is all for profit.
In the final analysis, it is still a matter of vital interest distribution.
Yang Huan watched Scudmore walk back to Wangjiang Pavilion, secretly amused.
Is there any jersey advertising sponsorship Yang Huan doesn't pay much attention to it.
According to UEFA rules, Southampton's funds invested in the new stadium, new training base and youth training can be used to deduct liabilities.
So, even without these jersey advertising sponsorship contracts, Southampton's debt is not much serious.
Especially considering that after being promoted to the Premier League next season, there will be less debt.
It's just that Yang Huan doesn't like being pointed out.
When Ferguson made such a fuss, now these team owners have come forward to protest, Yang Huan also has a fire in his heart.
Hasn't this won the Premier League yet?
A lot of shit!
My own money, my own team, do whatever I want, what qualifications do you have to give pointers?
Okay, the more you guys say now ()
