RED SHERIFF

and syriza is not capable of doing anything? Nor do they want to?

who are ones not wanting reforms? as the 'rich' will benefit from real reforms?? who are the ones against streamlining the bloated public service? who are the ones stopping proper tax reform? workplace relations? don't the 'rich' want more development? growth? investment? who stops an industry from setting up business in Greece? How do you create jobs? How do you create jobs and opportunities? why hasn't Elliniko been developed? is it the wealthy ship owners fault? who is going to tell the lao a 10 year degree in philosophy does NOT get you a job for life at the museum? who is going to tell the lao that getting a job in the dimosio via messon is not what the country needs?

There is no doubt that China and the mining sector are very important to Australia...and to Gina.... however an economy that can pay an uneducated Turk who can't string two words together $200k a year to deliver bread as a contractor has multiple layers of economic strength and stability.....and a system that 'works'..... too bad the TURK SPENDS MOST OF HIS $200K ON GAMBLING Habits and Prostitutes......but hey....he keeps the economy going....

all these 'clubs' are seeing this as a nice loophole to wipe off debt..

I was thinking the other day... How would PAO be today if the fans dids not turn on Tzigger 10 years ago???

the financial situation in australia today has hit a bizarre level... there is wealth all around us...... the people in general are walking on clouds..... 23 yo Turkish (aussie born) electricians are taking home $8k a month (working for wages).... one of many examples I have heard lately.. driving around Melbourne, multi million dollar suburban homes are being built west/south/north/east.... suburbs were 20 years ago you could buy a house for $90k are now seeing houses sell for $1.5million... times are good.... not sure if this is the reality we will see continuing.....but most here don't give a toss about the world economy......would be Lebanese gangster type rappers from the suburbs are driving around like movie stars... there is an abundance of money circulating.... most don't care for Gina and others.... I made the point to my then wife (whilst walking around Athens in late 2004)..... 'these people are living a better lifestyle than the people back in Melbourne,.....I just don't get it.....something is not quite right here......"..... the lifestyle of Melbournians has sky rocketed the last 10 years..with attitude to match....

there will be no mass revolution.... the masses in the western world ( middle class, working class, working - middle class, welfare class, NO clue class) etc all live too comfortably...fortunately or unfortunately these people do not care.....they exist, survive relatively comfortably... they are not driven by the 'greek freedom fighter mentality'.... of where I will burn down the corporates because they make 1 billion and only give me $1......I'd rather everyone have $0......apart from my dad who deserves a massive pension because he worked 26 years collecting tickets on the trains..

Beat Romania 2-0. Topped the group ahead of USA, Romania, Belgium. Now play Turkey in the final. Good effort all round.

none if that explains why we fail to collect taxes, enforce laws, have terrible red tape that does not allow businesses to open and flourish.. etc etc Or the inefficient bloated public service and education system that holds progress to ransom...etc etc... what about the 'varia epagelmata'?? hairdressers?? opening up competition ?? etc...

we are not talking about getting together to watch a match..... you are aware of exactly what I am referring to.....I think we all are...

assuming they are being put up to destroy things....no matter who is putting them up to it..nor how organised they may be... if the law was to punish them accordingly (serious jail time) they would decline the offer next time to act 'on orders'.... shut them ALL down...I don't care... this debate is not colour blind.....(not for me anyway)

well we have young anarchists now running the government... If you are going to take that attitude then nothing will change... throw a few of them in jail and watch the rest fall in line,,,thats how the rest of europe dealt with the issue.. we dance around it..

you excuse the greek left from this? they are openly for migration and against nationalism

you need to start somewhere... and these clowns are a big part of the problem.....this can't be denied..

If the plan is to break up all the hooligan and thuggery, criminal element in all supporter groups this could be the beginning of a good thing... Somehow I find it odd that Syriza would attack a type of institution that had given 'their branch' de facto authority for 40 years.

you are a harsh man..... he was good...and so was she :smartass:

if he is struggling to see the pitch...then let him be and why the 'pressure to sign'?

He is good enough to be playing... Meli the greek cowboy (mentality of greek owners) is pulling the strings... sorry..I am not being blinded by colours..others it seems are...

I don't doubt that he is not a nice person... however I didn't know being nice or not nice really matters when he is trying to do the best for his client... Adam is 20/21.... he is contracted for another 18 months...he is not obligated to sign anything with any one.... he does not owe AEK.....We need to get over this mentality.. he is an AEK player..play him.....end of story.... if he is that good...another club may snap him up and pay some $$$$$

you can't blame the player and agent for looking for better options...... when does his contract expire?? I don't recall the last time we did this to a player??? we don't burn players....we try them and the best 11 play...otherwise they end up on the bench in saudi arabia ...yet that is still our fault...5 years later...

lost 1-2 to USA today...play Romania on Thursday...

yet of the same scenario was made of an osfp player ...we would get 100004156602 posts as to how we burnt another great greek player... the Tzanetopoulos saga is a disgrace for greek football...and shows how these cowboy presidents operate....regardless of colours...

You are saying that Greece missing out on the E....gave us an 'eastern' view of the world..... and in some ways this has caused many of our ills.... interestingly though that many greeks today see the 'west' as being our down fall.....and see the solution to our political/economic/social problems would be by cutting ties with the 'west'...

not the u17s......but the u16s.....regardless a good result...v the world number 1 country in producing young gun players in the last 5-10 years..

I agree... however I can see him being useful with his speed when we struggle to score and open up the minnows.... a dribble here or there and a burst of speed.....means you may go 1-0, 2-0 up very early vs. one of the minnows...can change the whole mood of the team... can't see him doing much v bigger opponents..
