Damianos Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 Seeing as no one has opened this topic i thought id start it. AEK starts its Greek Cup campaign, obviously hoping to do better than last year. Although everyone says it is hard to compete in lots of competition and expect success (Super League, Uefa Cup and Greek Cup) i feel AEK can go a long way and possibly even win it. The reason for his is that we have decent squad depth (even though some people disagree) for competitions like this. We have lots of players who are young or have just recovered from injury that are really hungry to prove themselves to Ferrer: Alexopoulos, Pappas, Kapetanos, Azcarate, Lagos, Kone (sort of), Diouf (maybe a little early), Georgeas (when fit), Hetemaj and Pavlis. Our opponent for our first outing is Fostiras, based in Tavros, Athens, and was founded in 1926. If i am right the game will be played at Rizoupoli. Similarly they wear Yellow and Black, so seeing as we are the away team it looks like we will be wearing the white strip again (which i didnt mind too much, but lets be honest, its not AEK). They competed in the 'A' division back in the 60s and 70s but got relegated to division 'D' due to financial difficulties (sounds almost very similar to AEK). At the moment they are 11th in Group 1, division 'C', so you would expect there to be no problem for AEK. But, as often seen all over the world, there are little clubs that are dubbed Giant Killers, so AEK will have to make sure they arent complacent, especially with the predicted changes to the starting line up. Im am actually really looking forward to this game (if i can watch it on the net) because i would love to see some of our injured or younger players get a game and show there worth. In particular i would like to see Lagos, Hetemaj, Pappas and Pavlis in action. A good game could get them a show against Iraklis on the weekend. Also, i read that the game will be covered by ANT1. Is this correct?? I have been looking for links on the internet for the game but havent found any so far. If anyone finds any could they please post here. Hopefully it will be a good game for AEK. I will say we will win 2-0. Not sure who will score, because im not sure who will play. But i would like to see Pappas on the score card. It will be interesting who will be in goals!!! Morretto because he is less likely to play throughout the season. Macho, to get him ready for the Iraklis game (he has missed the last 2 games) or will Arabatzis get a taste of the action?? Anyways, discuss away, what are your thoughts on the game. AEK really has had a busy schedule this season so far. :nw: LONG LIVE AEK :nw: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was that written by accident??? In the early 1960s that WAS the nickname of Fostiras. Hopefully, this year, our lads will play the game we all know they can play with no let downs.

Fostir - AEK 1-3 ;) The actuall name/title/nickname of Fostiras was FONEAS TON (i can not remember if it was Giganton or Megalon)but i am 100% sure for the Foneas part.Even though Olympiakos has a 11-0 victory against them back in the 70s. B) Anyhow a see a 0-3 for AEK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genome Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 After having looked around myself a bit, I can tell you that the game will not be shown on ANT1 (in Greece at least, I don't know about other countries, maybe they do show it on ANT1 Satellite) but on ALPHA. Please take a look here to see what I mean :). Should there be any changes I'll let you know asap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damianos Posted October 31, 2007 Author Share Posted October 31, 2007 I heard the game is on at 18:00 Greek time?? Is this true?? If that is so it means it will be 1 oclock in the morning in Western Australia?? Cheers Only one day away now. I wonder if Olympiakos will rest players tonight against Larisa, or wear them out even more???? I know AEK will give some of the 2nd string players a run!!!!

The2ndMouse Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 Kone did not start very well and the whole team seems to anxious for all to go well... however as time goes by we control the ball better I think we can work upwards from that.
