85 teams will take part in next Greek Cup (2018-2019): 53 Amateur Cup Winners 16 Football League teams 16 Superleague teams Superleague teams will not enter the competition until Stage 4 which is the group stage. EPO just can't bring itself to abolish this stupid part of the Greek Cup. Final will take place on May 18, 2019 at OAKA Stadium

Today's count: 6,211 (4,541 renewals, 1,670 new) I see us beating the 15,000 mark this year.

Fixture list? They don't even know how many teams will play in the league next season and you expect a fixture list? Even the start of the 2018-19 season is not set in stone yet.

That's assuming we are allowed to have fans at our games ...

Canas was pretty good today. I think he will go with the proven Mauricio - Canas duo in the Basel games. Unfortunately I see Henrique not making the team.

2:1 final score. Massive lineup changes in the 72nd minute. Henrique missed a sure goal in 92nd minute.

Forgot to mention. The games is streamed on Steaua's youtube channel:

What a lame excuse by PAE PAOK. Novasport has no problem televising the game and since PAOK TV just uses their feed I see no reason why PAOK TV is not streaming the game. Anyway 2:0 in the 30th minute. 5. Vieirnha 10. El Kaddouri BTW Vierinha back to wearing no. 20 instead of last season's 88. Additionaly it appears that he's back on the Thessaloniki diet of gyros and souvlakia as he seems to have put on some wieght.

They haven't even scratched the surface with the gangster.

Looks like there were changes to our pre-season friendlies schedule. Our new confirmed friendlies for the second half of pre-seson training are: 09-July, 20:00 EEST: PAOK - Steaua Bukurest (Romania) - at Apeldron12-July, 19:00 EEST: PAOK - KAA Gent (Belgium) - at Marasingel15-July, 13:30 EEST: PAOK - Royal Antwerp (Belgium) - at Halderberge (early kick-off due to WC Final later in the day) There is a possibility that we will also play a game on July 16. Previously we were scheduled to play Al Taawoun on that day.

How is Vermont Yianko? One of only 5 US states that I have not visited yet. As for the friendlies they mean nothing. The only games that count will be played on July 24 and August 1.

Mauricio needs to stay unless Ivan brings in Natkho. I think Mauricio will have a great season if he stays. Same goes for El Kaddouri.

I moved the above from the PAOK forums. Lazare can you help him out?

Boston I moved your post to the Feedback section. Hopefully Lazarus can answer your problems.

The team return to the base in Thessaloniki tomorrow. I think before they leave for the 2nd part of the training there will be some roster cleanup. I expect few loans to be announced. Also Prijovic will join the team, and it will be interesting to see if Warda joins as well. In the next set of games I expect lineups to be streamlined to start resembling the starting 11 for the Basel game. Even if we make transfers in the next few days, I don't expect those players to play against Basel.

NOVA is not offering anything of such value. It's the crazy Syriza government that promises money through ERT to supplement the current NOVA money (that covers only 8 teams right now). They are doing that ahead of the general elections. It was revealed today at the SL emergency meeting that the money the idiot Vasiliadis promises are guaranteed for for just one year, which basically proves that it is just a pre-election gimmick. At least the SL owners had the brains to tell him to f... himself.

I don't expect the team to show us anything in these early pre-season games. In the end some of these players will never play together again. The main thing is to be ready on July 24 against Basel.

Like I said it was a problem with some internet providers which affected several Greek web site and probably included PAOK TV. Several Thessaloniki radio stations were down as well. They all came back about 10 minutes ago. Anyway the game ended in a 2:2 tie. Next game Monday against FC Nordsjaelland

Apparently PAOK received 600K from Alanyaspor for Campos. Not bad for a player that had only 1 year contract left with the team. I don't think it was in our interest to sign him to a new 3-year contract and that's why he left.

Superleague despite pressure from the lunatic Secretary of Sports today decided that 2018-2019 season will take place with 16 teams without playoffs. It was also decided that 2019-2020 season will take place with 14 teams Superleague also agreed to the proposal to create Superleague 2 as a the other professional league and to downgrade the Football League into a semi-professional league. There are still 6 teams without a TV contract and they are threatening to block the start of the Superleague on August 25 if they don't get one.

I think there are internet problerms with some Greek sites as they are not available. Might include PAOK TV as well. My stream is frozen at 54:45 minute mark. Score is 2:2 right now with El Kaddouri scoring both goals.

Vierinha will miss the game against Anderlecht tomorrow. Khacheridi should make his PAOK debut though.

Why not if we can get it. As it is if we want to sell him for less we can always do it. BTW his salary is 600K with 15% increase each season.

Djalma Campos transfer was announced by Alanyaspor.
