To be honest, what does it matter if it isn't certain that we will beat Beitar.

Hajduk it is.

I'll be going to the fan club for this one. Around this time last year I remember going there only to see an embarrassing 2-0 loss to the Bulgarians. Βάλτε 2-3 γκολ ρε μ@λ@κες να τελειώνουμε με τους Εβραίους!

Nantes coming in for Augusto. Apparently they have already agreed with the player on a four year contract. At this rate, I think Blackhawk and myself will be playing in midfield on Thursday.

I heard Tzimas will go to PAS Giannina.

I am sure we will get him and bench Konstantelias.

Παίξτε μπάλα ρε κοπρόσκυλα και πάρτε την πρόκριση. Εγώ και ο Σκωτσέζος θέλουμε να πάμε εκδρομές!

I don't understand some of these acquisitions. Why get someone if you are not going to use them. It sounds like some of these buys are just favours for agents.

I think you should start that up again. Would be cool if you had a different guest each week. Perhaps one week guest, the next week the lad from Australia, then guest, then back to Australia and so on.

The problem is that PAOK never learns from the same mistakes. It seems all our scouts are able to do it find players that used to play for us on loan and rehire them.

I think Kotarski will be sold if we do not make it through to the group stages. In fact I believe he will be one of a few. Perhaps Konstantelias and Zivkovic.

He still hasn't replied, so he was no doubt drowning in bridesmaids.

I haven't watched any of the games, however I have an awful feeling that this season is going to be even worse than the last one. In hindsight you could say that it was a mistake bringing Lucescu back, however it was even bigger one placing the €7m clause in his contract (ie. if any side wishes to terminate the contract, it must pay the other €7m). Lucescu will do nothing except sit on his contract, while Ivan probably already has his priorities set elsewhere. I hope I am wrong, but I think the 27th will be another "κηδεία" like last year in Sofia.

"I reckon maybe" - you ever thought about going into journalism?

Though it it does happen then we have no chance at finding a keeper of the same standard. Lucescu will probably get Biseswar back in on a GK contract.

Unless it's Fabrizio Romano, I wouldn't pay much attention.

Laughing all the way to the bank.

@Blackhawk I will be heading to Prague in September with some friends. It just so happens that the Sparta is playing against Slavia the same weekend. Do you have any contacts for tickets?

How did they manage to broker a 25% resale?

It is a deal that makes sense for both sides. PAOK is selling for pretty much the same price they bought him for (+ a bonus too). The player gets a big contract to see out his (potentially) final years and is also much closer to home. Thanks for everything Sverrir, we wish you all the best in Denmark. I honestly expect Troost-Ekong to better than him, though knowing our luck he will do a 'Kargas' against Beitar next month.

What could it possibly be about? What else is there to show that the first two didn't?

This guy was one of the founding members of PAOKMANIA. His nickname was Aparadektos, real name is Nikos Toskitsis. He sent me a free tshirt back in 2008, still got it somewhere. He is good friends with Yiankos. Anybody know where he is?

That's ok. Ask Max Verstappen.

It only makes sense to keep him if we are serious about this season. If not then just replace him with Nasberg.
