I think it's clear we need to get Biseswar back on loan.

Noting the current roster here. Names in bold either have expiring contracts (and may be expected to retire 😭). Names in italics are rumored to be sold. GKs: Kotarski Z Zivkovic Talichmanidis CBs: Koulierakis Kedziora Troost-Ekong Michailidis Nasberg Fullbacks Baba Rahman Vieirinha Sastre Jonny Otto Rafa Soares Midfielders Marcos Antonio Soualiho Meite Tsingaras Schwab Ozdoev Murg Konstantelias Forwards Taison Zivkovic Despodov Samatta Brandon Thomas (technically end of contract, but with one-year option remaining that will surely be picked up) Tzimas I would expect some B and K19 kids to get called up for the training camp. Here are some names that I am guessing are more likely. We probably will see some of the GKs (like Nader) show up as well. CBs: Panagiotou, Sinanaj Midfielders: Giaxis, Ninua, Andre Ricardo, Quagliata, Brandonjic (is he even on the team? Transfermarkt says he came back in January) Forwards: Hicham Kanis, Panidis Basically, we have a lot of holes to cover. For CBs, I bet Ekong and Nasberg will not be on the final roster, for example. Tsingaras has completely disappeared, so he's probably gone too. And, God willing, we'll find some saps to buy Samatta for a pack of cigarettes and a koulouri.

And that's all he wrote. Makes me sad, how Klaus' career went. He seems to have played all 90 minutes, and gotten a yellow. Not a lot of detail online, but found some game stats on transfermarkt: https://www.transfermarkt.us/spielbericht/index/spielbericht/4314392 -edit- or is the phrase, "that's all she wrote" ? I dunno I'm not, like, 80 years old 😞

The lads finished the season with a 2-4 victory in Karditsa against Anagenissi (and Klaous).

That makes so much sense - I completely missed the fact that they were both from Mallorca. Makes sense that they were on the same flight, then

Fun fact: they actually spoke in Mallorcan dialect, not Spanish!

PAOK wins the Greek Cup in penalty shootout (5:4) after the game ended 1:1 in extra time. I watched the game and PAOK was the better team on the field. We just could not break their defense. AEK relied on counter attacks and that's how they score the tying goal. This is our 7th cup title. The number would have been much larger if EPO did not cancel the competition for the past 6 years.

Cup final is 1-1 at full time. About to start extra time

Woah been in the clouds last 3 days! What a season! Ivan drop the cash now no excuses

I watched the replay of the semifinal against PAO and holy crap on a cracker what a penalty shoot out. We scored the first pen then 8 misses/saves followed

A full 30 days off. A far cry from the bad old days. Hopefully we make this a tradition too? Saw in passing that Sastre and Brandon Thomas flew back home on the same flight, and had a little impromptu interview. Cool to see, not that I know a word of Spanish beyond "hola bebe, cuanto??"

With fans (women and children) apparently.

Once again the pre-season training will take place in Horst, Holland - players to report in Thessaloniki in June 20, 2024 - training sessions at Nea Mesimvria (June 24 - June 29, 2024) - pre-season training at Horst, Holland (July 1 - July 15). Four per-season friendlies are planned.

Greek Cup final for our girls tomorrow at Panthessaliko stadium in Volos: WOMEN'S GREEK CUP - FINAL 22-MAY-2024 16:00 EEST (13:00 UTC, 08:00 CDT, 23:00 AEST) PAOK Thessaloniki - AEK Athens TV: Action 24 (Greece), Action 24 Web Stream: https://www.action24.gr/live-stream/ (worldwide)

Apparently Melissanidis promised Aris players/coaches up to 100K if they got a result against us that would give AEK the title. He was in Thessaloniki the day before the game dining with Karypidis in a popular restaurant.

I saw a picture of him on the weekend (he was also at the big screen watching the game against OARIS). The guy looks like he is 46 years old (of course, no offence to any 46 year olds out there).

Klaous announced his retirement about 45 minutes ago, sad times. -edit- looks like he'll end his career playing against our B team tomorrow, actually. God, that's poetic

Team wins 0-1, and are champions. Olympiakos coach is arguing with the ref, probably because it's simply in their DNA to expect deference from the officials.

let's make it to the groups this year !

what a win what a title ! what celebration !

I have honestly seen worse camerawork in actual professional games; this is great

PAOK U15 is right now playing in the final of the U15 Super League championships against Olympiakos. Here is a stream of the game:

We are automatically the top ranked team during the 2nd & 3rd Qualifying Round should we qualify. We would be the third highest seeded team for the Playoff rounds. The only team that I think we won't be favorites against will be Galatasaray
