There is a risk of bankruptcy and liquidation of the team under trusteeship, but if someone takes a fancy to Crystal Palace and buys it as a whole, Crystal Palace still has hope of survival. Simon Jordan's desire to sell Crystal Palace is not something that just happened this year. As early as last year, he

He started selling the team around, and the financial situation at that time was not as bad as it is now.

The trustee of the Crystal Palace is an institution designated by the Croydon District Government. The reason why Wayne has the ability to operate it is because of this. Combined with the strong response from local Croydon fans, the District Council and District Government cannot remain indifferent. Crystal Palace

There is a high chance of success in applying for administrative custody.

Since this is a local area, Wayne, as a lawyer and also a district councilor, can still find some connections to help his nephew.

"Actually, the situation is not as bad as imagined!" Venn explained to Wen Sheng, "At present, it seems that the Crystal Palace has successfully applied for administrative trusteeship. The Croydon Council government will not be willing to see the Crystal Palace go bankrupt according to the wishes of the people.

Liquidation, they will definitely actively look for new buyers, this is how Simon Jordan moved into Crystal Palace a few years ago, and now others can too!"

Wen Sheng doesn't really want anyone else to take over. After all, after the new boss takes over, the team has to change its appearance. How can a young man like him occupy the position of head coach?!

It would be nice if the trusteeship period was longer, giving me the opportunity to coach for a full season! Wen Sheng thought to himself.

By the way, Wien is also talking about an optimistic situation. What is not optimistic is that no buyer can be found at all. The assets of Crystal Palace can only be divided, auctioned and liquidated, and the team is disbanded.

After all, playing football now means spending money, and various costs have skyrocketed. Crystal Palace has not made any big purchases in recent years, but it has been losing money. The main reason is that Simon Jordan's dream of becoming a superstar has been shattered, and young players have been sold at low prices.

, anyone who comes must first weigh whether he can withstand the torment.

Simon Jordan is a living example.

Today, Wayne took Wen Sheng to the trustee. He had tried hard to lobby the other party earlier, and the other party agreed to meet Wen Sheng.

In order to ensure that he would get this job, Wen Sheng stopped shaving more than ten days ago, so as to appear more mature and avoid giving the other party the impression that he was not able to work well with his hairless mouth.

"Young man, you look younger than I thought!" To no avail, the trustee William Carlton said the first thing he said when they met.

Well, it’s a waste of effort! Wen Sheng shrugged, “I hope this will leave a good impression on you, Mr. Carlton!”

William Carlton is actually very young, but in his early forties. His position is very crucial to the team. From now on, he will be the master of Crystal Palace for a period of time.

Carlton is a complete layman in the management of the football club. As a trustee, he wants to ensure the interests of creditors and does not care much about the life and death of Crystal Palace. Of course, the face of the city council and the government still has to be taken care of. Besides, the team has been relegated, which is very important to the bankers.

Not a good thing either.

At present, the main job he has to do is to increase revenue and reduce expenditure. To increase revenue, naturally, it is to sell players, fill the hole and pay off debts. To reduce expenditure, it is to reduce the club's financial expenditure. He must find a way to send out high-paid players. Which club's scouts, stadium administrators and other positions should be

Layoffs of layoffs, keeping the leanest organization.

"Haha, Daniel, don't be nervous! In fact, I have no interest in selecting a coach, but the responsibility lies! After all, I am the entrusted manager of the team now, and I am also responsible!" Carlton said a reassuring word.

"But I am responsible for the bank, and I want to ensure their interests!" Carlton said as he poured coffee for his uncle and nephew, very politely.

"Thank you!" Wen Sheng and Wayne took the coffee, and the three of them sat down on the sofa.

"You are only 25 years old. This is too young! I have never heard of a professional team inviting a 25-year-old to be the head coach! Are you going to say something to convince me?!" We are not familiar with each other, Karl

Dun also got straight to the point.

"Let me tell you first!" Wayne and Wen Sheng looked at each other, and then said: "First of all, from an economic perspective, Daniel is a very cost-effective head coach. His salary requirements are very low. Under Mr. Warnock's coaching

Team, his weekly salary is only 1,000 pounds, to be honest you can't find a cheaper head coach than him!"

"From a competitive perspective, he does not have the experience of independently coaching a first team, but he is a genius. This summer he worked as Croydon for a period of time... and was the head coach of an amateur team in our area.

Coach, in just over ten days he managed the team well, and even defeated Crystal Palace led by Mr. Warnock in the summer warm-up match!"

"It was precisely because of this experience that Mr. Warnock invited Daniel to join his coaching team! Mr. Warnock recognized him very much. Look, this is the letter of recommendation written by Mr. Warnock to him!" Wien

He took out the "warm" letter of recommendation from his briefcase.

William Carlton is not interested in football, but he still knows the team somewhat during this time. Head coach Warnock is a topic that cannot be ignored. They have been negotiating the termination of the contract together in the past two days.

William Carlton took the letter and read it carefully. It was rare that the head coach Warnock wrote it very seriously. He not only wrote about Wen Sheng's advantages, but also talked about Wen Sheng's small shortcomings. Of course, William was still praised.

Moved, Warnock said in the letter, "Daniel is very familiar with the team. Changing coaches and adapting requires a process, but Daniel does not need it. There is not much time left for Crystal Palace to avoid relegation!"

Relegation, must be relegated. No matter how much William Carlton cares about the team, he knows that the team needs to be relegated to stabilize its value. If it is relegated to League One, haha, this team may really have no choice but to go bankrupt and liquidate. At that time, the city council

And the government will be very dissatisfied with him.

"Finally, I want to say that Daniel is a local, he is a loyal fan of Crystal Palace, and he is willing to give everything for the team! Now that the team is so difficult, he still wants to pick up this hot potato, because he really loves the team, and I believe he is interested in it.

The passion for work will greatly help the team avoid relegation!"

Carlton nodded noncommittally.

"So Wen, what do you want to say?"

Wen Sheng took a deep breath, "My uncle has made it very clear about my advantages! I would like to add that although I have no experience of coaching a professional team alone, there is a saying in China that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers. I am young and I am

Be motivated! In such a difficult period, change is not a bad thing for the team. If I serve as the head coach of the team, I will vigorously promote young people and strive to increase their value. This is also a good thing for you.

Bar!"

Carlton was very satisfied. Wen Sheng's words moved him quite a bit. The team's fixed assets were actually not that easy to deal with. It was a bit difficult and took time to find money for selling the fixed assets. Besides, the district council and the district government were not willing to let the trustees go early.

Let's start the split auction. Ultimately, the money you want to sell depends on the players on the team.

If young players can add value on the premise that the team can successfully avoid relegation, Carlton would be very happy to see this.

"When things have developed to this point, what is the difference between the team's first team and the youth team I coached in the past? I don't have much experience with the first team, but I have a lot of experience with the youth team. I think I am enough to lead the team.

Let’s start a relegation battle!”

"Mr. Carlton, we all need the courage to break the boat!"

"I am not lacking in this!"

I don’t know if Carlton didn’t care or what, but he was finally convinced by Wen Sheng and his nephew. It was risky to use a 25-year-old young man, but it didn’t matter. Carlton believed that Wen Sheng was a local.

Empty promises of enthusiasm and strong promotion of young people.

On December 15, Crystal Palace officially entered administration, and Warnock immediately announced that he had reached a termination agreement with the club and left Crystal Palace with his coaching team.

On December 16, Crystal Palace held a regular press conference. As a British Championship team in Greater London, foreign media may not pay attention to it, but the media in London still paid a certain amount of attention, including "
