So basically a 17% chance that we will definitely not make it (by drawing Ajax/PSV). We should be able to handle any of these other teams. I guess it would be good to draw Dinamo Zagreb if only to help Greece's coefficient by knocking them out...though I'd prefer BATE. They should be the weakest team and we need to get some revenge.

Klaus and Vellidis are leaving Giannina. The GK should be able to find a job....don't know about Klaus.

Not looking good. Aggregate is 3-3 at the moment, 7th minute of stoppage time. Ajax has three away goals counting against them.

Word has it that Shakhov received an offer for 900k/year from a Saudi team. That's more than double what he makes now, right? If so, I doubt he'll be with us next season. Personally, I'd be more than fine having Charisis as 3rd/4th option. Wernbloom + "big signing" (hopefully Oliveira) to start the season Misic + Mauricio (when he gets back - should be training by late September, return in October?) Charisis for added depth

Liverpool just beat Barcelona. This might be good for us, as I think Liverpool is more beatable for Ajax than Barcelona was...assuming Ajax wins tomorrow (which they should).

Guy's dropping some elite-level shade there Garry is amused as well: -edit- to my everlasting shame, I misspelled the legend's first name

This is all HILARIOUS stuff. How can Iraklis afford to buy themselves a new identity if they can't pay their bills anyway? Or am I just living in the past here?

Didn't we literally have thousands of guests last year? What a sh1t show.

I was referring to next year - what's to stop them from applying some other kind of punishment to us? Doesn't seem this has stopped them in the past. "PAOK is hereby fined 4.8mm EUR and docked 20 points for disrespecting the game."

If they refuse to play, they'll get docked all sorts of points. Pointless stands won't really accomplish much. And frankly, all the teams need to clean house when it comes to their terrible fans...because you KNOW that if we had fans there, there would be a fight. In fact, I bet there still will be, outside the stadium. Should just have the final be made up of women and children though. Would be a great look if Athenians attacked busloads full of children.

I guess it won't matter since he won't get game time anyway. But yeah I don't see what the fuss is about this guy. As for Lamprou, I think he'll re-sign with us. But this is a GREAT chance for Sporting to sneak in and get him for cheap; all they have to do is convince his agent to whisper a few nice words in his ear. If they wait, we'll have a big fat buyout clause ready. Hopefully we'll see movement on Koulouris soon. I think his clause was at 7mm? I'd take 5, to be honest.

Seems Giannoulis has a broken nose. Face mask? I'm not sure if there's a period during which inflammation would necessitate him sitting out. I'd rather Tosca start on the left than Crespo, TBH. Otherwise, Matos *should* be good for this game.

Giannoulis went to the hospital for examinations. Not sure if he broke his nose or what. Hopefully not a concussion. Fortunately Matos should be available for the Cup, which means we'll have options for the left side (if worse comes to worst).

And that's it for the season, folks. We have the cup final and then the sweet release of summer break. What a hell of a year it's been!

So we'll get a points deduction right?

What are all these stoppages for?

That makes two assists for Pelkinho today

Goal Shakhov, who came on like 20 seconds earlier

Henrique on for Biseswar

Cooly done by Pelkas as well.

Finally the goal. Akpom ends his dry run. Nicely done.

Another Akpom goal disallowed for offsides. Can't comment on if it was DUE TO THE TERRIBLE PICTURE QUALITY

Still searching for a decent stream. Found this so far: http://rowfirst.eu/soccer/kas-pas-giannina-paok-thessaloniki-otda57208?l=406823526 -edit- this one's slightly better: https://www.vipleague.lc/2-giannina-vs-paok-live-streaming

Last game for Tosca it seems

Sounds like another ref got attacked, but not quite as seriously as the last one. Jeez.
