Μεταγραφάρα!

Instructions unclear. Flying to Denmark with out u19 team.

Happy new year everyone!

I think their contracts are up at the end of the year. We certainly won't be receiving any bids for them.

Honestly I don't mind him but I think it's time we freshen up our defence.

He will be sold to a Scandinavian or Eastern European side who will then knock us out of a European cup on a future date. He may even score. You heard it here first.

Why is he not in our first team?

I disagree. I think Lyratzis can make it. He just needs games and some guidance.

Glad to see Lyratzis cement his place in the squad. Knowing Lucescu though, I am sure Taylor will be back in the squad in no time. It would be a huge shame to take a young Greek player out for a guy who just isn't good enough.

I think one day I will establish a company, hire people who have a great CV then tell them how to do their job instead of leaving them to do what they do best.

Would you want to come back after finding your way again?

I think the draw would have been a fairer result.

Why?

Our B team is doing well then.

I hope you are happy with the return of Jaba. I am quite sure this will be the only addition to the team.

Due to Denmark's draconian rules, I will be unable to make the trip. I just hope we get through and play a British team in the next round.

Ιταλέ, κόψε τα ληγμένα φίλε.

Lyratzis should be starting over Taylor anyway.

I visited the London club the other night to watch the game with Lincoln. It's a little small but the boys have certainly done a good job with finding a place so central. Not sure I would go there for the derbies but for the European games I will probably go again. All those years when I was younger (and more fanatical), I used to imagine having a fan club in England. These days I have encountered PAOK fans even in my home town, which was unthinkable back then. It's certainly astonishing how times changed.

I heard a rumour at the London Fan Club the other night that Savvidis is looking to sell. Apparently a Greek entrepreneur based in Italy is looking to buy. Of course I don't know how much of this holds true but with what has been going on lately it makes sense. At the end of the day Savvidis is a businessman. He has bought (and sold) various assets in northern Greece and I am sure PAOK played a huge role in helping him secure them. I can only assume he now has enough control (real estate in the city, the port, TV channel, beach resort) in order to let go of PAOK that I am pretty sure is running at a loss for him.

I received this yesterday and had a good laugh.

As Blackhawk rightly says, most have us have already booked our train/plane tickets to Eindhoven.

Had we beaten the Danish in Toumpa, we would have come top of this group. Now we have to play an extra knock-out game.

So not only does EPO create two legs in a minor round but they also schedule the games on the go. What a joke.

As the plumber striker boards the plane and gets comfortable in his seat, he reads the news that Varela will be starting and his lips form a little smile. "What you smiling at?", asks his teammate, a midfielder who runs a bakery. "Nothing", says the striker, "nothing at all."
