Book excerpt: The year 1892 is the birthdate of a football giant, one of the rare legends of the 21st century that does not smell of blood and tears. It is the year when a club, writing a history that should not only be read but also memorized, said "hello" to the world. Shortly after its founding, it became the nightmare of all national league teams, and then all of world football. There was hardly a team it did not beat, hardly a rival fan it did not sadden. In 125 years, it won 18 league championships, 5 European cups, 7 FA cups, 8 league cups, 3 UEFA Super Cups, 15 Charity Shield Cups, and 3 FA Youth Cups. As the club gained success, its coffers filled, and its fans grew in number. It captured the hearts of approximately 600 million people worldwide; its name, and song were on the lips of its fans every day. Joy and sorrow, night and day, death and life always follow each other, just like victory and defeat. From the early 1990s, the club ship began to take on water. As it slowly lost its strength and its rivals grew stronger, its popularity both in its own league and around the world began to wane. Executives became unhappy, fans hopeless, and the team tense. Derby victories won from time to time were just consolation prizes for the fans. Fans who wanted to be happy now either delved into nostalgic memories or childlike dreams. However, its love never ended and will never end. Because it is not just a football club; it is an excitement, a desire to win, a passion, and a love. Yes, it is a love and that love is red and white. And this book is written to express the expectations and dreams of those in love with the red and white colors, and is a message thrown into the ocean of the future in a bottle. Will the bottle reach a shore, will those living on the shore find the bottle, and read the message inside, will the words in the message mean anything to the reader? No one knows this.
