Warton Road Stadium.

A newly opened lounge by Cheltenham, the referee, bilateral referee, and the fourth official, a total of four referees in this game are resting before the game.

At this time, they had to worry about why neither team had reported in advance. But now, they were very suitable for rest and didn't mind.

"The robin is not bad, the young Chinese president knows how to arrange it." The referee of this game was resting on the comfortable large leather lying sofa, and a lengthened custom-production Hilton on his hand burned a light blue smoke.

Next to his sofa, there are also cigars, juice, oriental tea, biscuits, pastries and other catering services.

"He knows how to respect us, hey, it's rare compared to the stupid chairman of the clubs." The fourth official stroked the metal cigar in his hand and stroked the fragrant fingers between his nose: "This cigar is so good, the fragrant Brazilian native cigar..."

"Cambi, don't blame me for not reminding you, you can't suck before the game." The referee immediately reminded: "Cigars may have some auxiliary materials that stimulate the spirit. The metabolic effect in the body lasts for about seven hours. The law enforcement referee is not allowed to suck before the game. If someone reports you, it will be very troublesome."

"Okay, thank you for reminding me that this thing is too tempting." The fourth official quickly put the cigar back in its original place, but his eyes never left.

The two linesman found what they like, and lie comfortably on the sofa and close their eyes while enjoying it.

One of England's football traditions is that they never miss referees in their hearts. Of course, this is the tradition of many national leagues.

England is slightly stronger in respect of referees than in the American football game. They don’t really punch and kick, but they definitely belong to the level of not loving birds.

Most of the presidents of English Football Club are native Englishmen, and the traditional concept is very serious. These referees are still accustomed to them, but they never invite the referees to have dinner or something. This is not because of avoiding suspicion, but because they look down on them at all...

Not only are the teams not paying much attention to the referees, but even the FA itself is not very good to the referees. In addition to salary and other benefits, they can be cheated.

For example, the referees were all delivered by the FA. The team did not take the food and entertainment. The referees bought the lunch box by themselves. How low is this treatment?

Most of the referees in the Premier League hold A-level Green Field Law Enforcement Certificates. If a referee of this level goes to law enforcement competition, if he eats a lunch box, the reimbursement amount is two pounds.

Just two pounds...

Some people also think that compared to the Heavenly Dynasty, this is still a very good grade?

It's actually wrong.

If you eat a box lunch for two pounds, you can’t eat anything in England. For example, if you are considered a poor man from the middle and lower class abroad, a three-tier giant costs nearly three pounds!

What about the food subsidy for referees in the English League Two matches? The subsidy given according to the corresponding referee level is only 1.2 pounds!

It was not until the end of 2012 that the black referees' treatment for going out increased slightly, and the average increase invisible growth was 70%. The growth rate was equivalent to... Well, at least you can afford a double-layer cheeseburger, but the three-layer giant is still a bit worse...

At this time in 2011, the referee was treated as a red fruit and looking down on the ground! So the referee in black seemed to be majestic on the court, but in fact he was very miserable...

There are many stadiums below the Championship, and there is not even a referee's lounge, so you can rest in the bus!

Many of the traffic cars arranged by the FA have no air conditioning, so the miserable black-clad law enforcement officers often have to chew sad cheap food and endure the cold and heat waiting for the start of the game.

If you think about it a little bit, this may be one of the hidden reasons why you are more tolerant of physical collisions in England? The referees' grievances are reflected in the judgment standards: Crash to death, kick to death, kill a few young men...

At this moment, these four referees who came to Cheltenham and sat in a special lounge, they definitely felt very good.

Wang Qing is an old fried dough stick who has been with the government office for five or six years. How could he not understand public relations? He has no traditional English concept. He has made a special room a few days ago and quickly arranged for people to do appropriate decoration. He also asked the head of the warehouse manager and the head chef to provide all the possible benefits. He also gave the cigar of his deceased adoptive father in a prodigal way...

As a result, four referees were highly treated and waited for team reports in a room that was equivalent to a VIP lounge for them.

Half an hour before the game, the leisurely and comfortable referees vaguely heard a loud noise outside. "Long live - Robin -" It seemed that many people were shouting.

"Hear? Cheltenham's fans are still very enthusiastic." A lineman said curiously: "They lost five games in a row, but they only narrowly tied the last game. Why are they so enthusiastic?"

Another lineman responded: "Yes, they are deeply trapped in the mud of relegation, ranking second to last, and the team lost several main players..."

The referee smiled: "The more desperate it is, the more it can reveal the soul of a team. Whether this soul is strong or weak depends on the fans' performance in the most critical moment..."

"So, is the team spirit of the robin strong?" the fourth official interrupted.

The referee was a little excited: "You will only see it on the court... Or let's guess whether the Robins will be relegated at the end of the season?"

"I bet on a box of Mexican Samsung cigars, I bet on a relegation." The fourth official immediately opened his bet: "No matter what, how can Cheltenham, who has serious internal problems on the outside, bet on the other hand, betting on the relegation? Without mentioning the financial crisis, not on the internal strife between the head coach and the chairman, the car accident of the main players alone is enough to pull the robin into the hell of relegation."

"..." The referee was stunned for a moment and quickly laughed: "Oh, I'm losing a lot, I also want to bet on the robin to be relegated."

"No, no, I'll speak first, you'll bet the robin to relegate." The fourth official laughed with the confidence of winning.

The referee complained: "You cunning Camby, it seems I'm going to lose."

A sidekick walked to the window, opened a gap in the blinds, followed the cheers outside and looked into the distance for a few seconds, and said in surprise: "Look! Robin fans are going crazy!"

The referee and others hurriedly approached, looked at the scene outside, and soon opened their mouths wide and couldn't close for a long time.

"Wow, does it look like the atmosphere of a derby in the same city?" exclaimed: "Last time I went to Rome for vacation, the atmosphere of the derby in Serie A and Lazio was like this."

"Oops..." The fourth official called out instead.

"It's just a surprise of the number of people, right? But the atmosphere and the enthusiasm of the fans are not inferior." The referee smiled and pointed at the fourth official: "Hey, Cambi, I want the Mexican Samsung cigar, don't forget to prepare it first, hahahaha!"

The fourth official curled his lips and walked back to the table sadly, picked up the cigar and passed between his nose twice, but he didn't dare to hear too much, so he let it go back.

In the square outside the court, the robin bus drove over and stopped slowly.

Fans rushed up, and many fans were excitedly touching the vehicle.

Cheltenhams' luxury car!

The special car of the fiery robin!

Even though the iron sheets are burning in the afternoon sun, they are as gentle as they caress the breasts of their lovers.

Many older generation robin fans even excitedly put their lips on and kissed them hard on the fiery red car skin!

This is the vehicle belonging to the Robins themselves!

Vehicles belonging to the Robinman!

"Long live! Cheltenham!" The fans kept cheering.

The old man Barthley also squeezed up and even licked his tongue on the car skin without any filth. After confirming the smell of the new car, he felt very happy and widened his red eyes, waved his arms and raised his thumbs up and shouted: "Good! King of Chairman!"

"Good example! Chairman King!" The excited fans all raised their thumbs up at Wang Qing who was standing tall.

Cheltenham's team members had just left the door and approached the bus. When they heard the sound of shouting, they raised their hands and jumped happily and raised their thumbs.

The thousands of enthusiastic thumbs of the Robin man made Wang Qing stand up high.

Looking at the players below with high fighting spirit and those excited fans, Wang Qing felt:
Chapter completed!
