The fact that Kace is on around 5x less money than Maduro is a bit of a joke. The kid was voted our MVP for the season and is on the lowest wage of all the main players in the squad. There are youth players on less, but pretty much all the main squad, except Tzandaris earns/earned a much better wage than him. It's crap like this that doesn't help. Spyropoulos has been getting paid 2.5x what Kace has been paid. Crazy.

This gets even better. Syriza wants a 1 month extension of the bailout but wants everyone to vote "No". I bet these guys couldn't run a souvlaki stand. We lost any respect we had with the world with this bunch of morons.

Gas stations are getting cleaned out, ATM's are getting emptied, grocery stores are getting ravaged. It shows you how much confidence the people have in this 1974 Moscow student government they have. The spineless Tsipras doesn't even have the balls to make a decision. Hey, you got elected with your mandate by the people so step up and say "no" and move the country to the Drachma instead he's a typical communist coward hiding behind a "referendum". I can't believe how stupid the Greek population is. We all called this months ago and we don't live there. What a shameful country. The only thing they have going for them is the nice weather at this point. Other than that, they are F***ed for years and years.

Hey boys here's a first look at our training gear by Puma, they feature the traditional Panathinaikos logo

Tsakas' Prince?

Kace has a contract until 2017. Now would be a good time to extend his contract and give him a nice raise (and set a good example for the other youngsters). If a good offer arrives make the most of it.

I'm with js on this one. Always preferred public services over private services operating for profit. My opinions on this debate don't differ whether its in the UK or Greece, or whether the economy is strong or weak. Its a classic left vs right wing argument, one that the right has been winning over the last 25 years or so across Europe. Anyway back on topic. I think it says something when even David f**king Cameron, Mr. Austerity himself, says that Greece may be better of leaving the Euro: http://www.theguardian.com/politics/2015/jun/26/cameron-told-eu-leader-greek-exit-from-euro-may-be-best-option

Have to agree with you. Most of the people in power in the EU are not even elected officials and their is nothing citizens can currently do about it. But, apparently having such a view means you have no grip on reality.

I don't understand your question, just because i empathise with people and am not an apologist for thugs and a corrupt state doesn't make me communist, in fact I'm a 'capitalist', i just wish we actually lived in a capitalist system where private firms didn't get bailed out using public money and small businesses were able to compete on a level playing field with big corporations, who are able to not pay tax, exploit cheap foreign labour and are thus able to undercut small businesses. I also wish the state didn't pass so many laws and statutes and actually left people alone more, we're drowning in EU regulations and red tape. The EU lean more towards socialism/communism, they've succeeded in bringing the cost of living up in eastern europe and the standard of living down in western europe and are forcing member states to take in migrants who are fleeing from countries we've(the west/EU) destroyed through military intervention and foreign aid programmes that prop up horrific regimes in their own countries. The job of governments is to provide services for people, not to give tax breaks to their corporate chums, billions in foreign aid and demand cuts in services because of lack of funds. They get away with it because too many people are apologists for the state and always give it the benefit of doubt and turn on each other. We even had a poster on here trying to excuse the thuggery of our leaders but are appalled that Tsiparas was at a demo 15 years ago. When its reported companies like Pfizer paid an annual corporation tax of around

yes wow, when they lob flower pots through shop windows and then leave the scene the chances are they didn't pay for the damage, the restaurants they smashed up may have been compensated but what about the women they abused and people they beat up and bragged about after? you seem to be an apologist for these thugs and have no problem with people like that running a country like the UK but are appalled that a man that attended a protest 15 years ago is running little Greece. And they tell us in the UK anyone can be prime minister, but it seems to help if you come from an elitist background attend private schools and join a dining club that engages in thuggery and vandalism. Yet in Greece a common man has the top job and no one likes it, despite the fact the country was on its knees before he took over. Not that i think it makes any difference who's in charge while we remain in this union and currency. sorry to badger on about the UK but i live here and i think its a little comparable, the UK 'Lao' demanded cuts in public spending after they were spoon fed the narrative from the government (and slavishly reported by an unquestioning UK media) that public sector workers were overpaid, had gold plated pensions and were overstaffed, these cuts have been implemented over the years. The result - the passport office had a 3 month backlog for passport applications with people moaning they had to cancel their holidays, a report today that the tax office has failed to answer 20% of its phone calls and people saying they'd had to wait on the phone for 40 minutes just to speak to someone, queues at airports because they cut the number of staff working at the UK border, ambulance services cut with stories surfacing of people bleeding to death while waiting for one, cuts at hospitals resulting in massive waiting times and fortnightly(instead of weekly) refuse collections in some areas. The public here were fed rubbish about a bloated public sector with great pensions and they demanded reform, which they got. The lao demands.
