Chapter 906： Do not make jokes!

"In view of the fact that the Premier League teams have not performed well in the European arena in recent years, many people have responded. A very important reason is that the Premier League teams need to play too many games, which leads to excessive consumption of players."

David Bernstein stood on the podium and talked.

After listening to many people, they couldn't help but smile. Is this a sign of reducing the pressure of the Premier League team?

The best thing is to respond to public opinion by dropping a cup or introducing a winter break.

Yang Huan glanced at the crowd and couldn't help but laugh secretly in his heart, this group of guys are really good enough.

Is the FA so stupid?

You know, the Premier League basically has nothing to do with the FA, and even if they want to divide the money, they still have to look at the Premier League.

The biggest power of the Football Association now is to supervise the Premier League and veto power on major decisions.

This is also the reason why David Bernstein dared to propose reforms to labor certification in public.

Basically, it can be said that as long as the Premier League does not open the air, as long as the Football Association proposes this matter and the Ministry of the Interior approves it, there will be nothing else.

When everyone was overjoyed, David Bernstein poured cold water on all of them.

And it's cold!

"In view of this, after consultation, we are considering continuing the reform policy of the mid-1990s, continuing to adjust the Premier League, and further reducing the existing 20 Premier League teams to 18. Competitive pressure."

In a word, the audience was stunned!

Everyone's eyes widened, and they looked at the gray-haired old British man on the podium in disbelief, as if asking, hey, old man, did you forget to take your medicine? Are you okay?

After a few seconds of silence, everyone in the audience protested frantically.

"How is this possible? Cut Premier League teams?"

"Are you kidding? Why did the FA cut the number of teams participating in the Premier League?"

"Yes, this is an internal matter of our Premier League, you should not intervene!"

"Is there something wrong with you, for no reason, why cut the quota?"

The whole meeting room was immediately fried, and everyone's reaction was stronger than before. Some even slapped the table, blowing their beards and staring, wishing to rush up and kick David Bernstein off the stage.

However, the old man was standing there with the old god, and he nodded his head in a leisurely way: "We are still considering, we have two starting points. One is that the results of the European war are indeed very unsatisfactory, and the fans reacted very much. One is that the performance of the national team is indeed deeply affected, so we..."

All the people below stopped doing it immediately.

"So shit, your national team's performance is not ideal, that is your family's business, it's our shit!"

"That is, the results of the European war were not satisfactory. The fans complained, and we don't want to!"

"Do you think that if the participating teams are reduced, the European war results will be better?"

"Too naive, aren't you? La Liga is also a 20 team, how come they are not affected?"

"If you really feel that the team is under great pressure, then remove one of the cup matches first!"

"Yes, withdraw the cup!"

"We are on strike at the cup!"

"Okay, I support, strike!"

There was a lot of discussion, and the crowd was raging, and Hamad, who was watching, was completely confused.

What's the situation?

What are these guys doing in such a hurry?

Isn't it just cut two places?

Anyway, we are not affected by Tottenham Hotspur...

Thinking of this, Hamad suddenly remembered what Young Master Huan said just now. How did he know that today’s things have nothing to do with us? Could it be that...

Looking at Young Master Huan again, the latter grinned, showing white teeth, hehehehe hehehe kept laughing.

Knowing that Master Huan's hands and eyes were open to the sky, but he didn't expect it to reach this point.

It's no wonder that David Bernstein got into trouble with Young Master Huan when he had nothing to do. These two men must have a passion.

But with slander in his heart, Hamad still had to bow his head and leaned over, "Master Huan, really want to cut the Premier League teams?"

Cut the two participating teams, from the original 20 to 18, and from the original 38 rounds to 34 rounds every season. This is simple to say. Do you know how much impact it has?

Let alone the two places that were eliminated from the competition, this will inevitably affect the relegation of the Premier League team and the promotion of the Premier League team. How many teams will suffer?

Also, with the loss of two teams, the number of Premier League games in each season has been reduced from 380 to 306, which is nearly 20% less games. Just ask, Are broadcasters willing?

If you are willing, that's good, how much is the loss of broadcasting fee?

At that time, how much will the benefits that each team can share will be affected?

In other words, if there are fewer games, what changes will the sponsors have?

These are all things that affect the whole body. How can the FA simply say that when the quota is cut, the quota will be reduced? Really think their home runs the Premier League?

David Bernstein is not an idiot, he just knows that it is impossible for the Premier League team to allow him to reduce the number of entries, because the impact on the Premier League is so great that almost all teams will oppose it.

Of course, relatively speaking, for Southampton, Manchester United and other giant teams, the impact will be smaller.

But overall, the impact is incalculable.

Twenty years ago, the reason why we were able to cut from 22 to 20 was because the Premier League was in its infancy at that time and the value was not obvious. In addition, the 22 teams played in the league at that time were indeed too much pressure. .

But now it's different. Twenty participating teams have become the rule, then cut?

Do not make jokes!

Therefore, he is making a price all over the sky and returning the money.

In exchange for the reform of their labor certification with a condition that all Premier League teams cannot accept.

This is the so-called exchange of interests!

In the future, if anyone says that the FA are all pussies, Yang Huan promises not to kill him!

Who said these guys are pustular?

What's more, all of them are as shrewd as ghosts, and you don't want them in every minute.

In fact, all the people present were smart people. They were angry and surprised at the beginning, but soon afterwards, they all realized David Bernstein's intentions.

Sure enough, **** is still hot!

If Yang Huan didn't guess wrong, will today's result be fruitful? The nickname is that they go home to consider, but actually they have to borrow the donkey.

It will not take long for the FA's plan on labor certification reform to be passed smoothly.

As for the proposal to reduce the number of teams participating in the Premier League, it is never mentioned again.

…………

…………

The meeting ended up as Young Master Huan expected, and it ended when everyone went back and thought about it.

Yang Huan stood up with a yawn, said hello, and was about to leave.

Hamad was full of doubts, and quickly followed.

But when I walked out to the gate, I saw Manchester City’s Mubarak, Manchester United’s Ed Woodward, Liverpool’s Ian Al, and Arsenal’s Ivan Gazidis all chasing from behind. Come up.

"Master Huan, do you have time, shall we go for an afternoon tea?"

"Yes, Master Huan, let's go together!"

Several people gathered around, and the posture seemed like Yang Huan couldn't agree to it.

"Okay, but..."

Yang Huan took a look at the people in the conference room, and the others immediately understood.

"Let's go to the Undersea Hotel in Southampton!" Mubarak suggested.

An hour later, in one of the luxurious boxes of the afternoon tea restaurant of the Seabed Hotel, a few people who had just returned from a meeting in London sat in a circle, while the hotel waiter was busy delivering afternoon tea and pastries ordered by Yang Huan.

When the waiters were all busy and quit, Yang Huan didn't forget to confess, don't let anyone disturb you without his permission.

After watching the waiter close the door and exit, Yang Huan glanced at the people again and smiled slightly, "Come on, everyone, try the afternoon tea here, you can't eat it elsewhere."

But everyone present, except for the heartless Hamad, who still has this feeling?

"Master Huan, have you already known about this time?" Ed Woodward asked.

Everyone was obviously confused, because Young Master Huan didn't say a word from beginning to end just now.

This is completely different from his usual.

Logically speaking, how could he not give any attitude to such a big thing?

The only reasonable explanation is that he already knew it.

Yang Huan didn't even think about concealing it, and nodded, "I know a little bit, but it's not too clear."

Everyone immediately understood that this is reasonable.

"Master Huan, what do you mean?" Mubarak asked concerned.

Yang Huan glanced at everyone, "I can see that whether it is the FA, the British government, or even the local British fans, they feel about the team's European war results in recent years and the downturn of the England national team. Very dissatisfied."

This dissatisfaction has been around for a long time, and is not sudden.

Even when the former Premier League team swept Europa, they were also dissatisfied with the national team's performance.

It's just that there was more or less comfort back then, unlike now.

"So this time, they are not trying to reduce the number of teams participating in the Premier League, but to reform the labor certification and boost the local youth training!"

When Yang Huan said so, everyone present immediately understood.

They had guessed it a long time ago, but they didn't confirm it.

Judging from the fact that Young Master Huan knew the news early, he would basically not leave ten years after he said that.

Really want to reform the local youth training, for the few teams present, the impact is not great, this is also the most acceptable to them.

As for other middle and lower teams, between reducing the number of Premier League entries and reforming the labor certification, everyone knows how to choose.

"Well, this matter, we Manchester United have no opinion!"

"Our Arsenal too!"

"Liverpool too!"

"We have no opinion either."

"We Tottenham follow Master Huan!"

After everyone expressed their opinions, the matter was settled.

Yang Huan suddenly laughed, "After going back, everyone can let the coaches start spraying as much as they want!"

After listening, everyone burst into laughter.

The start of the spray is to give the FA a signal. The harder the scolding, the more the club will regress in this regard.

After a burst of laughter, everyone was quiet again.

"Master Huan, if you don't know if you can ask me something?" Ed Woodward asked with concern You can ask. "Yang Huan smiled lightly.

"I heard that Bielsa is leaving the saint?"

This question also suddenly made the faces of everyone present become serious.

Especially Arsenal's Gazidis and Liverpool's Ian Al, they both care most.

You know, the Saints are the Optimus Prime of the current Premier League team in Europe. If the Saints fall, the Premier League will be over.

Once the Premier League's points in the European competition are surpassed by the Bundesliga and Serie A, there will be three Champions League places left.

How will it be adjusted then?

The most influential are Arsenal, Manchester United, Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur.

So, can they not care?
