328 Jack Walker

"What are you doing here?" George looked at Steven with a sweaty face. Yellen asked in surprise.

Steven. Yellen was not only sweaty, but also a little out of breath. It looks like it's running over. When he came to George, he seemed to be angry. Finally, he said, "George, George... I just heard the news. Mr. Walker passed away last night!"

George looked at Yellen and knew Jack. Walker may not be a real millionaire in Europe or England. But the impact of his death is absolutely not small.

Especially for Blackburn, Jack. Walker's influence is even more unquestionable. Blackburn Club is not only a football club, but also has a great influence on the economic development of the whole city of Blackburn.

Around Ewood Park is one of the busiest places in Blackburn. There are many Blackburn citizens who rely on the Blackburn Club to survive.

No wonder, Steven. Yellen will look like this now.

George nodded.

"I just learned about it. Mr. Williams came just now. George's expression was very calm and his tone was not slow.

But Yellen knew that George must be more anxious than anyone else at this time.

Yellen is right. George is very shocked now. It is a completely different shock to know that a person is about to die and a person is really dead.

George has known Jack for a long time. Walker will be away this year, but the last time he heard Jack. George was already shocked when Walker was ill. But no matter how shocked it is, it can't be compared with now. Jack. Walker really left.

Yellen wanted to say something, but he paused again. After looking at George for a while, he said, "Then you're busy, George."

"Goodbye, Steven."

"Goodbye, George."

Looking at Yellen who was far away, George sighed.

"George, what's going on?" Evan, who was just by the court, saw Williams first and then Steven. Yellen. I have guessed that something must have happened.

"Mr. Walker passed away."

"What?"

Evan was shocked. Jack. Walker is the greatest hero Blackburn has been able to get to this day. There is no Jack. When Walker entered the club ten years ago, Blackburn was a team that was mixed in the lower league. In the past ten years, Blackburn has actually experienced two real coaches.

A coach is Jack. The first head coach invited by Walker after he joined the team. He is also Blackburn's meritorious coach, Dalglish.

Daglish has made a great contribution. Let a club in the League One become a strong team in the Premier League. And in the end, Blackburn led Blackburn to win the Premier League championship in the 94-95 season.

After Dalglish, although Blackburn also invited a lot of coaches. But basically it didn't take a long time. It was not until George's position as the head coach stabilized. But Jack in the middle. Walker's support for Blackburn remains the same.

Especially after George became the owner, there were frequent transfers. Although there is a sale of transfer fees from other players of the team, it is more Jack. Walker's support.

How can it happen all of a sudden, Jack. Did Walker die?

Jack. Walker's death set off a big storm in British football like having wings.

Jack. Walker himself is just a rich man with hundreds of millions of pounds in assets. There are many rich people at this level in England, and there are countless in Europe. In the future, the Russian tycoon and the American tycoon entered the British football world, Jack. Walker's assets are nothing.

But for now, Jack. Walker's influence on British football is definitely not small.

Jack, the first champion maker in the Premier League to pile up with money. Walker. The influence he brings to British football is absolutely great.

Now Blackburn's grades are very good, which can be said to be very strong. In the Premier League, it is completely on par with Manchester United and Arsenal. And with Blackburn's current age structure, even if it is brilliant for two or three years, it is not a problem.

But in this case, Jack. What kind of impact will Walker's departure have on Blackburn? This is the attention of all media.

However, the citizens of Blackburn fell into deep grief.

Regardless of Jack. How did Walker make a fortune? Don't care about Jack. How did Walker fool those fans when he was expanding Ewood Park? At that time, Jack. Walker tricked many citizens into moving, saying that he wanted to expand Ewood Park. But in the end, it only used a little, and the other places were bought at a low price by Jack. Walker is used for other commercial purposes.) But in the hearts of Blackburn fans, Jack. Walker is always the kindest "Uncle Jack".

In the hearts of Blackburn fans, Jack. Walker is Blackburn's greatest savior. It's because of Jack. Walker, Blackburn has been able to dominate in the Premier League in the past ten years. These are all Jack. Walker brought it.

Jack. Walker's prestige among Blackburn fans can't be made clear in a word or two.

So be Jack. After the news of Walker's death came out, all the citizens of Blackburn fell into great grief.

............Although Blackburn fans are immersed in great grief. But this funeral is a very private funeral.

Jack. Although Walker was the first club owner to buy a Premier League champion with money. But he was not an ostentatious person before he was alive. The Walker family was already a billionaire family decades ago, but Jack. Walker rarely appears in public.

Until Jack. Walker joined Blackburn, Jack. The name Walker was only known by the English.

Jack. After Walker became the master, all kinds of movements were frequent. Expand Ewood Park, transform other facilities of the club, and buy big-name players. This kind of action, one after another, shocked the British football world.

But Jack. Walker himself rarely appeared in front of the media. Or Jack. Walker himself is unwilling to deal with reporters. So Jack. Walker's private life is very confidential.

Jack. After Walker died, it was still the same.

There are basically no outsiders at the funeral today. Except for Jack. In addition to Walker's children, it is Jack. Walker's brother's family. Anyway, it's all from the Walker family. Speaking of outsiders, there are only Williams, George, and Dalglish, who was the football director of the Celtics last season. Throughout the funeral, George just stood silently next to Williams without saying a sound.

Until the end, George and Jack. Walker's family shook hands. I wanted to comfort them, but I couldn't say it. So at most, it's just the word "sent condolences".

And look at Jack. Walker's family is not as sad as he thought. Maybe it's because of Jack. They all know Walker's illness. So I have already been mentally prepared.

Hold Paul at the end. At that time, he whispered. Thank you, George."

"No, Paul. Without Mr. Walker, I wouldn't be who I am now.

Paul. Walker shook his head. You should know that Blackburn is everything about his father. When my grades are not good, my father doesn't smile every day. Until you came to Blackburn, my father was happy every day. Especially the League Cup champion and this League Cup championship, which is the happiest time I have seen my father in the past few years. So thank you very much."

George was silent.

Jack. Walker is really good to himself. He is also the one who comes here and appreciates himself the most.

But George also has a clear conscience. For Jack. Walker valued it, and he rewarded him with the best results. It's just that there is a little regret in my heart.

Jack. Walker was unable to see Blackburn win the Premier League championship again.

Finally, George sighed. He shook Paul's hand.

The funeral is very simple. George didn't know what else was going on inside the Walker family. Anyway, the rest of the matter was none of George, Dalglish and Williams.

Although Dalglish is the meritorious coach of Blackburn, George and Dalglish don't meet much.

Dalglish looks confident, or his previous successes have given him such self-confidence.

"George, it's been good recently. Much better than me."

To be honest, Dalglish is not much better than George's coaching performance. George has coached for six seasons and has won five cup championships. And it looks like we can win the Premier League championship this season.

But Dalglish, in fact, in terms of champion, is just so-so. Since coaching Liverpool, there have been four top league champions. There are also some other cup championships.

However, Dalglish has been teaching for more than ten years.

But Dalglish is qualified to talk to George like this. Because George is too young. When Dalglish was a player, he was already a famous player in British football. He is one of the best strikers in European football in those years.

George was not dissatisfied when he heard Dalglish's words.

So I nodded. Thank you, Kenny."

"Good." Dalglish patted George on the shoulder, then nodded to Williams and left where he was.

Neither George nor Williams spoke, Jack. Walker's departure made both of them a little sad. But both of them are adults, and both of them have experienced strong winds and waves. The two are thinking more now, Jack. What will happen after Walker leaves?

What they both need now is stability.

As long as it is stable, Blackburn will not have any problems.

"Let's go, George. There will be another important game tomorrow. It's a good explanation for Mr. Walker. Williams finally sighed and whispered to George.

"Ye-huh."

Tomorrow is April 18, the second round of the Champions League quarter match. This is a very important game. If he wins, Blackburn will break into the top four of the Champions League.

Jack. Walker is gone, but life has to go on.

George can't do it because of Jack. Walker passed away and forgot the game.

"John, I've thought about it. You should have a good talk with Paul. How should we know what Paul thinks? Does he have any opinion on the development of the club? I think you need to talk to him about all this.

"I know. As long as it's been a while, I'll have a good talk with Paul.
