  1. NO..I understood your post...i just think my reply was sloppy.... i agree
  2. do you think Syriza can open up industries to real competition and catch tax cheats... you need accountable public service for this.....Public servants answerable to KPIs and reporting lines that have clear performance expectations.....will syriza sack the tax worker who only does 4 audits a week, when the target may be 12?
  3. 'dictated to by EU'...see CHE's post for clarity on this... to think that we can be some mini self sufficient super power is absurd....we have major issues within our own system.... we can not create jobs or a fertile environment for growth...syriza will ideologically be worse for this... do the other Europeans see the EU as 'oppressors" ...why is it always greeks crying wolf? no one has ever benefited from Russia...look at how the rest of the Eastern Euros feel about Russia...the ones that had strong ties for decades.... Greeks are just simply looking for an easy way out and to appoint blame to the nasty 'capitalists'.
  4. post of the century... not much more needs to be said really.....
  5. maybe I am hung up on the term 'future prospects'...and in my mind a 28yo...with the next WC in 2018...is not the answer..
  6. yes..... but Asteras and Xanthi are not in debt...and pay their players and are reasonable on the field... I can't see Lamia being promoted and being much more than a Kalloni,Platanias,Ergotelis, Kerkyra,Panthrax,Veria etc...
  7. it's our own 'systems;' that got us in the s%$#!...
  8. Vellios is playing in a poor league now...and aravidis turns 28 soon???
  9. won't the others also drop games to aek, and also drop points to each other.... I think an 8 point head start is too great....
  10. I know you are a fan of Serie A....Regardless the fact is even the GSL players play at a much higher level week in week out to most of the opposition we face at NT level.....Latvia,Lithuania, Malta ,FI, Hungary,Israel. Moldova,..etc...a lot of these guys play at a level that is barely at G Ethniki...and not much pressure.. Too much is made of 'International Level"... Klaus scores in derbies has been prolific in Europe over the years...yet looks awful against NT minnows.
  11. Lamia are nowhere near the level of asteras and Xanthi......what relevance has the results against them 20 years ago.... No one is scared of Lamia....sorry no offense they are nothing club.. and if you believe in conspiracies...a lot of your mates here have told you that Lamia are in bed with Marinakis...
  12. Very easy for the e4conomy to grow post WW2....A lot of things needed to be built rebuilt...we also started from a low base... the society is far more political...and 'sophisticated'
  13. So Iraklis was scared of Lamia at -8????? Yep..and Lamia's tin shed with it's 6000 capacity would be a feared venue... I admire your passion and love for your club...but there was no conspiracy to keep them down...nor will they ever be anything more than a small club from the eparxia....they will never reach thew standards set by Asteras or Xanthi..
  14. don't you think our boys in the Serie A....play against better quality opposition than the 'international' quality they face v Hungary, Faroe, NI, etc....there is international quality and....international quality....
  15. interesting match up...although I can't see either team being caught in the promotion race..
  16. Irlandos none of that caters for the concerns articulated by Che. ///other than the rush on banks..
  17. anyway......Lamia are not going up.......So no need to worry about another club with a crappy 'stadium' in the SL...
  18. I don't think it's fair to say the EPO stooges are looking after Kone and Lazaros...it's a very easy Greek style cop out to raise a conspiracy when we don't agree.. Both of them had a very good 12-18 months in the Serie A....And play in positions we lack in...they do have an element of X factor...and neither have been automatic starters in the NT 11....unlike other clowns like Kats - Maniatis - Tziolis - Gekas - Salpi... I think it's way too much of a risk to play players like Giannotas, kaltsas, Aravidis based on form against poor domestic competition.
  19. I tend to agree that the bottom half of serie A is a bit bare in regards to talent.. Giannotas has only played a handful of good games...He was poor in the German second division....His better games in Europa were against Partizan....sub par opposition....Partizan play in a league that is at Platanias standard at best.. Vyntra AND Karabelas ARE GARBAGE....Kaltsas And Kolovos need to prove more at a higher caliber club... Kaltsas is off to PAO....Kolovos may get another chance at osfp...
  20. we need to be careful and understand where the likes of Kolovos, Kaltsas, Giannotas are playing their club football.. we see snap shots of these guys against mediocre opposition...Kone and Lazaros are playing at the highest level and are in their prime age wise.
  21. ironically.... our NT was poor in the mid to late 1990s....and the 0-7 to Juve and PAOs 0-5 to Man Utd and Barca x2came in the era that were supposedly a stronger league... Not sure if football has changed or the way it's played has changed..but the way Osfp and Paok to a lesser degree play the game in europe lately seems a lot more 'assertive' than the way Greek clubs played 10-20 years ago...the clumsy naive defence errors and stupid penalties are not as readily conceded.. Pflipsen and Ciric were in my mind flops...Pflipsen average, Ciric a flop....Signori to Iraklis was a Superannuation move... One can argue the quality of foreigner that Atromitos, Tripolis...even Panetolikos have signed lately have been much better value and performed better than Pflipsen ,Ciric, Signori, Biscan,Seric,Savini,Oscar, Juanfran, Botia etc etc etc etc A lot of it also shows that the league is not a stroll in the park for over priced foreigners..If you don't work hard and perform at near your best....even Platanias and Levadiakos will expose you for an imposter.
  22. no Bouchalakis has not done better this season...however he is a couple of years younger...and has more of the physical tools in terms of size that he can develop on... I think Bouchalakis needs more game time.....Love to see him at a club like Tripolis,Atromitos,PAOK....There is an upside... I believe that with a 24yo anakoglou we have seen enough of him to think there is not much improvement left....hey..hope I'm wrong for the good good of Greek football.....this is a position were we could do with both anakoglou and Bouchalakis stepping up... again .....Taxi and Samaris are the ones that need to take control for the next 5 years....
  23. not sure if K.pap if the midfield answer...yes Taxi and Samaris need to step up..(hence why I say in theory). I think we need to take a deep breath about anakoglou and a lot of the AEK players....there is a step up in playing in GSL... The weekly grind and trips to places like Tripoli,PAS,Xanthi, Panetolikos,Panionios, is a massive difference to some of the strolls v Alimos,Episkopi etc... Traditionally Greek NT players come from the top 6 of a 'stronger' GSL . Players with experience in UCL,Europa Competition... No surprise the number of starters v Hungary are Serie A , Bundesliga regulars.... it's a massive step up to a watered down B ethniki...with 'two leagues north and south'
  24. Kats has no place in the squad.... however at at a time of crisis and desperation we needed to try any bit of inspiration.....and anything that may stabilise a sinking ship.. did it work? No...would we have scored the winner in Budapest if Kats did not come on? who knows? I think it's unfair to put Klaus and Lazaros in this category...Lazaros was good in the WC....And Klaus was our only option once Mitro went down.... It would have been a massive gamble to pluck aravidis in for this one..
