No he doesn't have money, and he is not that stupid to put down his own money into PAOK. The plan is that he will have several investors to put the money in.

Zagorakis is likely to bring in his old teammates to help run the show. So far Vangelis Pouriatopoulos (aaaa memories), Georgiadis and Vryzas (after they retire) names have been mentioned. Lets hope we can build on this momentum and perhaps PAOK could be a title contender in the next couple of seasons.

On Monday Zagorakis will announce the people that will run PAOK under the "Doikisi protodikiou" for at least 1 month. It is expected that there will be around 7 people that will comprise the teamporary board. It has been quiet as far as names that might be involved. This is good. We'll have to wait until Monday to find out.

The first matter of business will be to get things in ortder for PAE PAOK to run. Season tickets will be the first real issue. Hope is that at least 15,000 season tickets are sold for next season.

Also, Zagorakis will have to find team sponsors. According to some rumors, one sponsorship worth 300,000 Euro has allready been agreed on.

Things that need to be done by ZAGORAKIS:

1) Try to clear the debt ala AEK

2) Round up the troups and get 20,000 season tickets

3) Clean up the squad get rid of crap and only keep old payers who are leaders. Bring in youngsters and give our own youngsters a go.

4) Create a board that will be trusted and works together where their is one captain and every1 else MUST listens and works together.

If we can make this move ala AEK and Nikolaidis then we will be on the verge of recovery and bigger and better things than AEK because we all know that the heart of Thessaloniki and the hunger and love of the PAOK fans in unmatched in GREECE.

COME ON ZAGO LETS DO THIS!
