Chapter 161: Controlling Public Opinion

In the game with Preston, Loew finally decided to let Cazorla partner Mascherano as the organization's defensive midfielder, and in order to ensure the pressure of the midfielder, he mentioned Meireles to the position of the front midfielder. , the change is not that big. ≧ ONE≯Fiction≧ ≦≦≦≦≦≤

In this game, although the offense of Notts County was a bit chaotic and disorderly compared to before, it still managed to win the opponent by surprise, taking all three points.

After six rounds of games, Notts County has won six consecutive victories and accumulated 18 points to top the League One standings, which has already left the gap with other teams.

After several rounds of baptism, Portsmouth, a strong League One team, gradually stood out and ranked second in the standings, but they already have a 7-point gap with Notts County.

After that ugly game, Leicester City, who were originally in second place, lost again due to unorganized personnel, and have slipped to the middle of the standings.

After the six rounds of the league, everyone's attention began to focus on the English League Cup, because the first round of the League Cup is about to start.

Although the League Cup has been used as a training ground by Notts County and does not pursue results, it would not be a bad thing to go further, so Notts County's bench lineup is still seriously preparing for the battle.

David thought of the issue of the right to speak of public opinion that he had been thinking about some time ago, and he could just take advantage of this time to plan it.

Although the local "Nottingham Evening News" has always had an obvious tendency towards Notts County, it is not in its own control after all. Who knows if it will switch to other camps for sales, after all, there is no actual between the two. interests.

Therefore, the acquisition of the "Nottingham Evening News" has become a matter of course.

Local media, with sales of only tens of thousands, can only cover Nottinghamshire and several surrounding areas. The acquisition of such a media will not consume much of David's funds.

David will naturally not be satisfied with getting a local media, his ultimate goal is a national comprehensive media.

The English media can also be said to be very good. There are also dozens of national comprehensive media, with extraordinary influence, and all of them have sports pages. As long as David can win one of them, he will not be completely at a loss in media public opinion.

The Sun?

David doesn't like the three-page girl who makes a pose, and the reputation of this newspaper is really bad enough, with a wide range of influence and great influence, David still excludes it from the target.

Besides,

The Sun is the main force under Murdoch News Corp. How could Murdoch, who is focusing on the layout of the media empire, sell it?

The Times?

It is also a brand owned by Murdoch, which cannot be bought.

"Guardian"?

In Manchester, David has no interest in competing with Manchester City.

"442"?

Although it is a professional football magazine, the sales volume is really small, and the professionalism is too strong and the coverage is not enough, so it is difficult to play a role in guiding public opinion.

The Mirror?

Although the sales volume continues to decline, the daily traffic volume is still over 200, and Murdoch has not yet started it, so it is a good choice.

The Daily Telegraph?

One of the best-selling newspapers in England, covering the whole of England, is also a good choice.

......

After some deliberation, David set his sights on The Mirror and the Daily Telegraph. Although the acquisition of such a large media requires a lot of money, David still thinks that the money is not a waste.

With such an acquisition, David just wanted to be an investor and let Notts County have the right to speak in the sports page. As for the operation of the newspaper itself, David was too lazy to care!

Although each newspaper has different political inclinations, everything has nothing to do with David. It doesn't matter what Liberal Party, Democrats, left-wing or right-wing, whatever you want to toss.

So David put his ideas to the team he formed in the United States, and this investment has also been listed as a recent focus.

Although there is no dead task set for an immediate acquisition, this node must be upgraded before Notts County is upgraded. This is David's bottom line.

As for the issue of funds, David is really not too worried. With his vision beyond the times, the profitability of the investment team is enough to make countless financiers jealous, and there is really little pressure to take out some cash.

After this matter was finalized, David felt that he should be able to relax, but on a sunny morning, David was called away by Rick Link again.

"My boss!"

David's plan to stay in bed failed, and he complained in his tone: "Didn't I say that everything in the youth training camp is up to you? Why are you looking for me again? I really want to Rest and rest!"

Rick Link shrugged with an innocent look on his face.

"Yes, I made it in the youth training camp, but after leaving the youth training camp, it is not under my control!"

David was stunned!

What's the meaning?

Seeing David's puzzled expression, Rick Link sat down and explained slowly.

It turned out that it was about a few young players in the youth training camp.

Suarez in the U17 youth team has been loaned to Bay Weilun, and several other players brought by David personally are a bit tasteful.

Ramos, Gary Cahill, Babel and Joe Hart are the four players in the U17 youth team.

In order to train these players, they can also get the chance to play in the reserve league.

Perhaps in terms of physical strength, they have a certain gap with adult players, but they are not inferior in technology. Playing in the reserve team seems to be a waste of talent, and there is not much training value.

Therefore, after communicating with the young players, the Notts County youth training team agreed that they should be given some opportunities to play in the first team.

"Don't be kidding, they are only 16 or 17 years old, how can they be in the first team?" David was stunned for a moment, and said randomly in disbelief.

Not to mention that these little guys are not old enough, even if they are fully mature, I am afraid that they will not be able to enter the first team for a while. After all, the strength of the first team players is there, and the positions of the substitute players may not be able to shake them.

More possibilities are to go out on loan to exercise, and then return to the team when they are fully mature.

"It's not for them to go straight to the first team."

Rick Link knew that David would react this way, and explained patiently with a smile: "They usually still have to train in the youth academy and participate in the youth league, but the League Cup and the FA Cup are not without strategic tasks. , so I want them to go to this kind of competition to exercise, it is very good for their growth!"
