1-0 loss for our team. Russia won 2-0, they are through along with France.

Looks like it's made up of at least some retired players on our side as well. Garcia and Schnauchner. Wonder if Ivic will play as well.

Exactly. It's very hard to filter out the shrill rage on both sides, unfortunately. But diversifying the economy...putting people to work...it's all vitally important. I was paying a visit to an uncle last weekend, at his pizzeria. He said there was some news out of my grandparents' favorite beachside town, Asprovalta (on the Strymonian Gulf). Apparently, huge swaths of land there have been bought by Russians in the past few months, and are being prepared for construction. Presumably it'll be hotels that cater to Russian tourists (the area already has a lot of Bulgarians). Massive news, right? Well, apparently, this is starting to cause some friction with the locals, who don't want to be overrun with foreigners. Admittedly speaking as someone who just visits once in a while...I'd put up with some blonde babes on my beach, if it means Mitso and Taki spend a few less hours at the kafeneio and a few more making cash to support their families. Sometimes, making money means you can't allow your life to stay forever unchanging. I think that's one thing Greece as a whole needs to learn, and that this crisis *should* be teaching.

The one that was in the plans from a year back, seemed excessive for us. Even if all of the teams practiced simultaneously. I'd be much more interested in a covered stadium. Get that incredible atmosphere tuned just right, acoustics-wise...would be a sight (and sound) to behold.

You know how we love our conspiracy theories, fearless leader. What's his play??

@Bananas - from what I understand, this mine will be particularly environmentally unfriendly (it's a strip mine in everyone's favorite Bulgarian resort peninsula, after all), and there are rumbles of human rights violations. But as is the case with many things, the two sides are both pretty extreme in their view of the other.

How does the appeals process work with the NFL? Who do they appeal to, exactly?

Live stream with Savvidis about to begin:

The season is still very young, I have high hopes for this year.

I still have trouble believing he'll invest beyond that. I can't see what the return would possibly be for him...why throw more money after bad? As I said on the old forum, if he does nothing more than pay off the debts and let the club steam along, I will still be grateful.

At least I'm not the only one who is ashamed when they see this league.

Don't be ridiculous. Fatigue is a real thing, whether you want to admit it or not. It takes no more than watching for six months to see the effect playing has on players. Unfortunately, there's only one team in Greece that can afford to have such depth that this problem is mitigated.

Never heard of 'im

Thank goodness that Panionios player kicked one of the extra balls in front of the ref to make sure he saw it. Wouldn't want the game to continue or anything.

Wonderfully inventive timewasting going on these past 20 minutes.

Deligiannidis??? Man Georgiadis is all over the place with these subs.

Kind of ridiculous red card for Panionios (two yellows in a row)

Kace saving our asses after a small delay due to fireworks being thrown on the field...

GREAT save by Itandje just now...wow that was close

And our lineup:

Hopefully next season will see a significant improvement. Would like to see him get significantly more playing time. Thankfully we have him for a while, and he's not on crazy high wages (unlike some flops we could name).

:: sits here and fantasizes about PAOK offering an internet streaming service for games ::

Let's hope for a blockbuster move to follow by them to bring Tziolis, Tzavellas, and whoever else we don't need over.

Yup, looks like Jimmy's gonna get his chance early.
