Bab 797: A Gift for Barcelona

When the team returned to Wilford from London's Heathrow Airport, they were dismissed on the spot and given a half-day break. They would resume training the next morning. But Twain and the two assistant managers did not have a break. He brought the two men straight to the training base to handle the day-to-day maintenance of the training ground.

The person in charge of this department was Thompson Isaksson, an elderly man who had worked his entire life in the turf maintenance at Wilford. He now continued to serve the club, leading 16 men. The 17-member team was responsible for the day-to-day maintenance of a total of eight training grounds at the North and South Wilford training bases. The work included leveling the site, turf maintenance, and some special requirements from the coaching staff.
