Players can be switched between teams, but there must be a 48 hour gap between the two games. However I doubt if there will frequent player switch from one team to another. It will most likely be player coming from injury to get back into shape, or somebody from 'B' to replace an injured player on the 'A' team Just found out that for the game against Doxa we will send the U19 team, which is coached by Malezas. The 'B' team will have their first practice tomorrow. Curious to see what players will show up at Souroti.

I watched the Gionis match. It was very exiting game, but Gionis shot himself in the foot by not "killing" the opponent in the 5th set with the numerous match points he had. Just like our tennis players, Gionis is lacking the killer instinct to finish a match. I also stayed until 2:30 in the morning to watch the Sakkari game . It was obvious Svitolina was a better and more experienced player. This was evident in the deciding 3rd set. For Sakkari to advance she would have to have an exceptional game. She will now continue in the mixed pairs competition with Tsitsipas. In Water Polo we tied a strong Italian team 6:6 in a game where we blew a 4 goal lead in the last period of the game. Danatsidis eliminated in the first round of the Judo 81 kg competition. In swimming Christou (100 m freestyle), Markos (800 m freestyle)both eliminated in the first round heat. In other news, yesterday one of our Synchronized Duet swimmer (Platanioti or Papazoglou) tested positive for COVID and did not travel to Japan. As a result Greece had to withdraw from the Duet competition. She will be replaced by a sub in the team competition.

Giovinco is apparently now demanding 1.8 mil from PAOK, which is around 600K more than what we agreed with him before. Looks like this will drag out for a while.

Doxa Drama is promoting a friendly game between Doxa and PAOK 'B' on July 30th. That's like3 days away and our 'B' team has not even started practices yet.

I like the striped one too. Much better than last season's version. The black one is nothing special. Apparently the orange one is our 4th shirt, which would mean that there is a white shirt that has not been unveiled yet. Not sure if the white shirt that appears at the 33 second mark in the video is an actual game shirt.

Draw for the upcoming season is taking place right now despite the fact that the teams votes 7:6 not to accept not approve the start of the new season due to some of the teams not having a TV contract.

Last time I heard it was going to be Kaftanzoglio, but things might have changed since.

Big win by the water polo team defeating Hungary 10:9 in their first game. Korakaki failed to medal in the 10 m pistol finishing 6th. Doudounaki finished 9th in 100 m butterfly and Christou 11th in 100 m backstroke. Tzeli finished 7th in 57 kg of Taekwondo despite losing both matches. Gountoura in fencing eliminated in first round. In rowing all three Greek representatives will race in the semifinal races. In Sailing in the women's Radial competition Karachaliou is in second place after the first 4 races. Today Sakkari plays Svitolina in Round 3 and Tsitsipas plays Tiafoe in Tiafoe is the player that eliminated Tsitsipas in Wimbledon. Egglezakis had to withdraw from the 800 meter freestyle swimming competition due to injury. Finally, it's sad to see the Olympics bein diluted by such weird sport as skateboarding, windsurfing, 3x3 basketball and so on. before we know it Tavli will become an Olympic sport.

456 season tickets renewal on the first day. Also it was clarified by PAE PAOK that the season ticket holders will also be able to use them for the PAOK 'B' team games.

And the ref ends the game in 88th minute because it started raining. Final score Feyenoord- PAOK. 1:2

Koutsias makes it 2:1

1:1 halftime Fairly decent game by PAOK. Expect different lineup in second half.

Michal Krmencik was loaned by Brugge to Slavia Prague. Part of the deal is that if Slavia qualifies to the CL group stage, they will pay Brugge 2.5 million Euro for his rights.

'B' teams can't take part in the Greek Cup competition.

We have signed a 21 year old defensive midfielder Ismahila Ouedraogo from Burkina Faso. I am certain this signing is for the 'B' team.

PAOK agreed with Swiderski to extend his contract by 2 years. There is no buyout clause. The contracts will be signed when the team returns from Holland.

The Professional Sport Committee (EEA) has given a license for PAOK 'B' team to compete in Superleague 2. Additionally PAE PAOK has officially announced that Pablo Parcia and his techincal team will run the team. And to please pash we are officially creating a thread for PAOK 'B' team.

First results for Greek athletes: In rowing Stefanos Douskos won his heat in Single Sculls and qualified to the quarterfinal race. Aneta Kyridou finished 3rd in her heat in Single Sculls and also qualified to quarterfinals. In Archery Evaggelia Psarra competing in her 6th Olympics finished 44th (out of 64 competitors) in the Ranking Round and as a result will face Lin of Taipei in the Round of 32 elimination round. This morning we had the opening ceremonies with Korakaki and Petrounias as the flag bearers for for Greece:

Crespo out for 3 weeks.

Dudelange - Bohemians 0:1 in the first leg of their tie. Looks like we will be travelling to Ireland.

Another LB we are supposedly interested in: Pedro Rebocho

I think only one will be cut. Actually he is gone already.

Concerning the times, keep in mind that Greek time is 6 hours behind Tokyo time, so today's 8:40 rowing event will be at 2:40 Greek Time (EEST). US Central Daylight Time (CDT) is 14 hours behind Tokyo time, so the same rowing event at 8:40 will be on at 18:40 (6:40 PM) on July 22.
