There are a lot of issues that will need to be sorted out by the courts, and that will take time. I am sure there is other material that both teams have that are net being made public. There has to be video from stadium cameras that exists and that will clearly show he was not even hit by the paper. If PAOK can clearly show with evidence that he was not hit in the face by the paper, they should also sue him and Karapapas/Theodoridis in the courts for fabricating a fake accident. If we can do that I can see Garcia coming out spilling the beans that he was forced into it by Olympiakos officials.

No, he is actually right about that. Olympiakos was the one who abandoned the game. It was not postponed by the referee, which means that Olympiakos can and will be punished for not playing the match. Of course you will argue that Garcia was injured and had to leave just like Ivic did last year. However, he went straight to the changing rooms and was not checked by the doctor for at least 15 minutes while Ivic was immediately checked by the doctor. Typically, you will say that the doctor was associated with PAOK, however, he was approved by the EPO which makes this argument void. Furthermore, while Garcia had not even been checked by the doctor, Theodoridis already said into the camera that he will take the team and leave, which is evidence that Olympiakos did not want to start the match regardless if whether or not Garcia was seriously injured. Furthermore, Garcia was not listed as the official coach of Olympiakos. By UEFA regulations the list oft team officials needs to be handed in 75 minutes before the game starts and at this time the official coach of Olympiakos was Kontis. Garcia on the other hand was by UEFA regulations no team official and had no business at the pitch. Which further means that Olympiakos was able to play. Of course now you will refer to the match report which lists Garcia as your coach, but again, the UEFA is clear on that the list needs to be handed in 75 minutes before the game starts and cannot be changed after the time is up like Olympiakos did. So whether you like it or not, but Garcia was by UEFA regulations no team official in this case. This makes it more difficult for Olympiakos to explain why they could not start the match. Additionally, Olympiakos demand to deduct 3 points from PAOK is juristically speaking impossible, since the law Olympiakos is refering to only considers official team members as I will show below in red. Εάν από την ρίψη αντικειμένων υπάρξει σωματική βλάβη προσώπου νόμιμα ευρισκομένου στον αγωνιστικό χώρο, τιμωρείται με χρηματική ποινή από έξι χιλιάδες ευρώ (6.000) έως ογδόντα χιλιάδων ευρώ (80.000). Στην περίπτωση που υπάρξει οριστική διακοπή του αγώνα, επιπρόσθετα επιβάλλεται κατακύρωση του αγώνα υπέρ της αντίπαλης ομάδας και αφαίρεση τριών (3) βαθμών από το βαθμολογικό πίνακα και ποινή διεξαγωγής αγώνα χωρίς θεατές δύο (2) έως τρείς (3) αγωνιστικές». So as I see it, and as more and more details come out of this incidence I am 99% certain that Olympiakos will be the one who will get a point deduction for not starting the game. I have to say, if Olympiakos was more clever and organized this could have ended really bad for us, but given the above information I see no danger for PAOK. Though I think that PAOK will face a monetary fine and probably 2-3 ghost games for an incidence with an individual who had no business at the pitch. Now the only question I am uncertain of is if whether or not the game will be repeated or if the game will result in a 3-0 in favor of PAOK. I hope for the latter because then the Gavroi would cry even louder and complain how much of a Halifis Savvidis is (even though Olympiakos controlled the Greek football themselves for 20 years). Not to mention that we would defeat them with their own dirty tricks which made them avoid heavy punishment for too many years. Anyway, I can only repeat myself here. It is not PAOK's fault that Olympiakos is sloppy organized and forgot to list Garcia as their coach in time. It is not PAOK's fault that Olympiakos wanted to leave without hesitation and actually left the pitch. And it will be not PAOK's fault that Olympiakos will be punished for that. What is PAOK's only fault is that this "fan" and any other "fans" like him are endangering our chance of getting the championship because of a vlakia, and for that the "fan", and every other fan who is like him need certainly to be punished too.

We caught the guy. Unlike in certain stadiums, our cameras work.

Και με ποιο δικαίωμα για 15 λεπτά οι άνθρωποι του Ολυμπιακού ήταν κλεισμένοι στα αποδυτήρια και δεν επέτρεπαν τον γιατρό να μπει μέσα; Αν έχεις πρόβλημα άσε το γιατρό να μπει. Αν δεν έχεις πρόβλημα και πήγες στα αποδυτήρια για δικούς σου λόγους, βγες έξω σε δύο λεπτά να γίνει η σέντρα ή χάνεις το παιχνίδι. Αυτό έπρεπε να πει ο διαιτητής. Τι νταβατζιλίκι είναι αυτό; Ο Καραπαμοσχάρης και ο παππούς αποφασίζουν αν θα φύγει ο προπονητής, αν θα γίνει το παιχνίδι, αν θα μπει ο γιατρός και που θα πάει ο προπονητής για εξετάσεις;

Incidentally today Garcia posted something on twitter that what happened at Toumba is no good for Greek soccer and that it punishes both teams, etc. Minutes later that post was deleted and his Twitter account was closed. Mark my words, he is counting days at Olympiakos.

^ long time no see man, welcome back! Good write up. I wish I were as confident, but I guess we'll know eventually. Probably around June.

You still haven't got the point. The cameras in Karaiskaki were turned off (apparently). You shouldn't even be in the first division anymore.

The match should be replayed. I don't want to win on paper.

Let's not exaggerate and ask for too much. For the beginning Bastakos is benched finally heyyy
