Rare Monday night game for PAOK. It will feel like the Bears playing on Monday Night Football.

Funny thing is that until yesterday nobody knew (Thessaloniki sports media) that PAOK had a 1-year renewal option with Michailidis. Maybe all these rumors that Panathinaikos is after him were just games by the managers. His manager is Paul Koutsioliakos who has screwed PAOK in the past on several occasions. As for Zivkovic, it is reported that his new contract is being negotiated by his father exclusively with Ivan Savidis.

PAE PAOK has extended Tsiftsis's contract until June 2029. His current contract was to expire in 2028.

Mythou scored the only goal for the U21 team against Northern Ireland, but it was not enough to see us through to the final stage, as we needed a win with 2 goal margin. Last chance to make it through in a playoff game.

Just could not do it against a weak Northern Ireland team. Only 1:0 win which was not enough to qualify to the final stage. We have one more chance through a play off contest. We just like to make it hard on our selves.

Tomorrow U21 plays the last game in this qualifying stage of the competition. We face Northern Ireland in an away game and we need to win by 2 goal margin to automatically qualify to the finals of U21 EURO 2027. The other way to automatically qualify is to beat Northern Ireland and Germany does not beat Georgia, which is highly unlikely. At a minimum we have secured a playoff spot and have a chance to make the finals through the playoffs, but the easiest way is to win tomorrow by 2 goal margin.

2:0 win against Aghia Paraskevi and together with Tripoli and Panathinaikos we are on top of the standings with 6 points. Next game is an away match against Volos NFC.

Impressive first half. We need to keep the same pace in 2nd half and don't give them a chance to come back.

1:1 tie in Slovakia and elimination from the Europa Cup. We were the better team in both games, but we just could not score on the many chances we had.

The game against Levadeiakos was cancelled by Levadeiakos. Remains to be seen if they schedule a replacement game.

Toumba Stadium will host two official national team games against Holland and Germany this week. These will the 6th and 7th games that the Greek national team will play at Toumba. Here is a list of the first five games: 04-Jun-1975: Greece – Malta 4:0 (attendance 18,000) - World Cup Qualifying 20-Sep-1995: Greece – Yugoslavia 0:2 (30,000) – Friendly game honoring Georgios Koudas 22-Aug-2007: Greece – Spain 2:3 (17,000) – Friendly game honoring Theodoros Zagorakis 27-Mar-2021: Greece – Honduras 2:1 (nf – covid) – Friendly game 31-Mar-2021: Greece – Georgia 1:1 (nf – covid) – World Cup Qualifying

That remains to be seen. Currently Panathinaikos and Iraklis are on the Sport FM platform, and since there is no actual platform set up yet, their games are televised on Skai TV, which we can watch with a VPN.

Final score 2:1 for the good guys. Michailidis got to play as well.

Zivkovic puts Serbia ahead in the 3rd minute. Serbia - Greece 1:0

Zafeiris and Zivkovic get the start in the Serbia - Greece game today. Banza sat on the bench for the whole Congo DR - Equaterial Guinea game. Congo won 2:0.

PAE PAOK has announced two friendly games: 02-OCT-2026, 12:00 CDT: PAOK - Levadeiakos (Mesimvria Training Grounds) - closed to the public 14-NOV-2026, TBD CDT: PAOK - Partizan Beograd (Toumba Stadium) - part of the Ugresic transfer

Apparently we are signing a new 3-year TV deal for our Superleague 1 home games with Sport FM TV worth 14,000,000 Euro per season. This will go into effect starting with the 2027-2028 season.

I think that is the major factor.

I think Pavlenka's injury would be closer to season ending due to the position he plays. Reports say Ali back in 3 months and Pavlenka back in 4 months.
