KALO PARADEISO STA ADERFIA MAS

congrats to our team we want the double !

What a joke. There is no problem having a sold out Metallica concert at OAKA only a week before the scheduled Cup final.

After this matchday we are safe for the Super League 2026/2027-season. #9 can only collect a max of 43 points in the regular season. We have 44. But with a deduction op points we can 😁

Greece actually has a shot at 10th - one more team more than Czech Republic. PAO can actually knock out one of their teams as well.

Angelos Chaminta (18yo ST) from Lillestrom will be switching from Norway --> Greece Christian Koutroulis (17yo ST) from Roda JC will be switching from Australia --> Greece

We will be switching back to Adidas for the next campaign. Much cleaner, sleeker, and traditional look.

With this win, Olympiakos finish 18th and advance to the knockout round!

Must buy Giakoumakis. He has impressive stats in Europe: 4 goals in 7 matches (and not a single one the whole 90+stoppage time). Overall 12 goals in 25 matches (did not check the minutes he played but I don't think he has played whole games). He has gelled in perfect and seems to found his freedom (thanks Fats Domino!) in Thessaloniki with his family. And he is only 31. A baby according to Razvan.

Olympiakos 2-0 Bayer Leverkusen FT

MVP so far is Chatzidis. On the Taison goal, Chatzidis passed to pappou who is double his age.

Next "transfer": Rayan Oyebade (born 30-4-2007) of West Ham United U21 has decided to join Greece. Oyebade has a Nigerian father and a Greek mother.

Let's grab the cup 5 days after we become a centenarian.

we should have won this , anyway we continue

And they did: 0-1 for the Greens.

Greeks love their metal

By MY standards, he should have been arrested!

Only in Elladastan. The final will be played at the Panthessaliko as a part of the OAKA will be under construction........ Final still scheduled for April 25th but it ain't over till the fat lady sings and we have over 2 months till that final....

Franks broke the 400 meter indoor national record with 46.16 seconds beating the record held by Kenteris.

It's raining.... Great pyro. Will cost us a fine though.

Sadly Toumba Stadium is not full. Way too many empty seats.

nikh kai 3 bathmous afierwmena sta aderfia mas

Olympiakos gets Bayer Leverkusen again This tie is 50/50, I think it's doable to advance.

Yes, there was a 5 Euro general admission for this game. Toumba will be full.

The last time this happened, Greece end up winning EURO 2004 : D

And Lucescu got a straight red card.

Well done Olympiakos! Consider that this was a very difficult group to play in, they survived the cut to make the playoffs as an unseeded side. If only they did not drop 2 points to Pafos, 13 points would be enough to be a seeded side in the playoffs and face a "lesser" opponent. Question Does Olympiakos avoid playing against teams (Bayer Leverkusen and Real Madrid) who they already faced in the league phase?

Depending on what happens next weekend, this game could see us make some real gains vs the other two...especially since we also have a game in hand.

FT 4-1. A pity Nestos won away in Karditsa, #3 in the table. We start like this in the relegation group: 5. ΠΑΟΚ Β 12 6. Καβάλα 12 7. Νέστος 9 8. Καμπανιακός 8 9. ΠΑΣ Γιάννινα 5 10. Μακεδονικός 3 PAOK B has the advantage against all opponents in case of equal points at the end of the season as the lads finished above all the other team in the regular season (PAOK B had 24 points and Kavala 23).

An early lead for the lads: 1-0 Balde

1,496 minutes played, so works out to just under 17 games. Scores every 125 minutes. Someone (our Austrian former podcaster?) mentioned when we first got him that we'd see a high workrate kind of player. Well...that's spot-on. Good call there. He's also pretty entertaining to watch; plays with a similar type of aggression to my boy Pelkas (which I think is a huge positive). I think the sites were saying we had a "reasonable" buy out amount, but I don't think I actually saw any numbers? Either way - BUY THE BOY I forgot when I wrote my previous post that Kedziora has an automatic extension if he plays in 70% of games, which I am sure will happen (barring any shock injuries).

Two wins and a tie see us move ahead of Poland and close the gap on the Czech republic. # country 21/22 22/23 23/24 24/25 25/26 ranking teams 1 England 21.000 23.000 17.375 29.464 16.847 107.686 9/ 9 2 Italy 15.714 22.357 21.000 21.875 13.071 94.017 7/ 7 3 Spain 18.428 16.571 16.062 23.892 13.312 88.265 8/ 8 4 Germany 16.214 17.125 19.357 18.421 14.035 85.152 7/ 7 5 France 18.416 12.583 16.250 17.928 12.071 77.248 7/ 7 6 Netherlands 19.200 13.500 10.000 15.250 8.479 66.429 6/ 6 7 Portugal 12.916 12.500 11.000 16.250 13.050 65.716 4/ 5 8 Belgium 6.600 14.200 14.400 15.650 7.300 58.150 3/ 5 9 Turkey 6.700 11.800 12.000 10.300 7.575 48.375 3/ 5 10 Czech Republic 6.700 6.750 13.500 10.550 8.825 46.325 4/ 5 11 Greece 8.000 2.125 11.400 12.687 10.650 44.862 4/ 5 12 Poland 4.625 7.750 6.875 11.750 13.625 44.625 3/ 4 13 Denmark 7.800 5.900 8.500 7.656 10.500 40.356 2/ 4 14 Norway 7.625 5.750 8.000 11.812 6.000 39.187 2/ 5 15 Cyprus 4.125 5.100 3.750 10.562 11.406 34.943 3/ 4 16 Switzerland 7.750 8.500 5.200 7.050 6.000 34.500 3/ 5

With only FC Utrecht and Racing Genk still playing in MD 7 we are assured of at least #23. Last year we finished 22nd. Can we improve? Would mean more money and more coeff.points.

Major win against a very good opponent.

Meite has ZERO idea what to do with the ball at his feet, it's hilarious

The entrance of Konstantelias all the difference in 2nd half.

I like it, though I'd like it more if Baba didn't get the start

nikh kai prokrish ston epomeno guro

good win 3 points and we continue

He is now Kitrinakis.

Btw Aris lost earlier today. Now to hope for an AEK...draw? Loss? I'm doubtful that PAO will continue to stink so I'm not sure I want them to actually win this.

The curious case of Taison Freda

Initial budget for the Nest of the Two-Headed Eagle AE was set at 1 mil Euro. With this development, the ball towards the construction of the new stadium should start rolling. Next step is to secure all the permits to raise down the old stadium and the permits to start the construction of the new one. The company also needs to finalize the design of the stadium with Popoulous. One of the sticking points is the Kaftanzoglio Stadium. The government promised that work was going to begin in November 2025 in order to have the stadium ready for PAOK to move in for the next season (2026-2027). Unfortunately as is always the case in Greece, the work has not started yet.

Panathinaikos lead 3-0 over the simpolites with 13 minutes and some added time to play. So it is 99,99% sure we will face them in the semifinal. First leg away, second in Toumba.

FT. 0-2. Bravo PAOKARA!!!!!

nikh prokrish me to psari

Working on it.

We are close to sign 16 yo winger Apostolos Savvidis of Panserraikos. Looks he will be added to PAOK B as he has already played some Super League games last season and this season for the Serreoi, though he could even play in our U17!!!

National team at any level (like U21s or whatever)? A shame both Zafeiris and Konstantelias are a year too old. Start Chatsidis and sub in Mythou! Boom!

Watched a part of Egypt-Benin yesterday. Their coach is Hossam Hassan. His brother Ibrahim is teammanager. I still have a photo with them somewhere. The photo was made during my time as a student in Greece during an Erasmus-exchange program in 1990.
