Off topic discussion was moved to the Other Teams/Other Leagues thread. Let's continue this thread discussing the Champions of Greece in football.

We had a bigger financial problem because we are a much bigger team then the other three teams in the city. And what "strange things" did happen? The fans basically kept the team afloat with season tickets and purchase of team shares. And then the savior showed up and rescued the team by paying off the debt. The question you (and the others) should be asking why hasn't a savior come to rescue your team using the law of the land to pay off the debt that you had?

Don't have to try at all to do that. For the past 10 year both those teams (and I will include Kalamaria in as well) tried their very best to exterminate themselves from the face of the earth on their own.

I am almost certain we will play next season at Toumba. Apparently thge Undersecretary of Sports is dragging their feet as far as Kaftanzoglio stadium is concerned. PAOK wants to start work that they will pay for it to meet UEFA standards for CL, but they don't even want to talk about it.

Djalma Campos escaped death in the car crash in Turkey that claimed the life of Czech player Josef Sural.

I still see no reason why we got Zivkovic though. Paschalakis, Melisas and a prospect from the youth team would have been ok with me.

We have pretty much 75% chance of starting the campaign in qualifying round 3. It all depends on Ajax. The most ideal scenario is for Ajax to win CL and Dutch title. That way we avoid a Dutch team (Ajax or Eidhoven) in the qualifying campaign. The second ideal scenario is for Barca, Liverpool or Tottenham to win the CL, but then we have the possibility of facing the Dutch champion in the qualifying rounds, which basically means we will not make the group stage of CL for sure. In this scenario we need Tottenham to finish in top 4 of Premier League, which is almost certain as Arsenal shot themselves in the foot over the weekend.

It's quite obvious that Rey is not liked by Lucescu and PAOK is not going to keep a player paying him 500K to sit on the bench. I see him being sold and/or loaned. With Zivkovic coming in and Rey leaving we save 200K. We save another 500K by finally getting rid of Glykos whose contract expires. The goalie roster for next season will be: Paschalakis (450K), Zivkovic (300K), Melisas (100K)

Good for Vladan. There is always a chance we will meet Maccabi in the CL qualifying campaign.

I've been to Vancouver. Very nice city. Had a good time there. Once there you need to take the ferry boat to Vancouver Island.

Three game before the first EURO game in June is fine. The last club game in Greece is the Greek Cup on May 11. That means there is almost a full month before the game with Italy. You don't want the players to be without any game action for that long.

EPO does not want that. And why would they. They will make a hefty profit if the stadium is full. The secretary of sports wants empty stadium.

Looks like the game against Turkey will be played on May 30 and will take place most likely at Antalya, Turkey according to latest reports.

She is in the process of getting Greek citizenship so she can compete for Greece. One of the biggest talents in Greek track & field.

Fiesta was not part of the game. The match report by that time was already closed and signed by the ref.

Perhaps it was not a foul, but the whistle was blown before the attempt on goal was made, so it's quite possible Tripoli player might have missed his chance. There was also no foul by Biseswar which was whistled as foul and prevented him from having a wide open field for him to beat the goalie.

Their turf is probably one of the best in Superleague following a complete overhaul prior to this season. Worst pitches in Superleague are Larisa and OFI.

Hope it doesn't happen. He doesn't need any distractions.

But it won't be. It will be played at AEK's home pitch.

Apparently EPO has arranged a friendly game against Turkey that will be played before the Euro qualifiers in June and will take place in a neutral venue (Germnay?). EPO is also hoping to arrange one or two additional friendlies against strong opponent during the NT preparations for the twu games in June.

Let's not lose this game so we can enjoy the title as undefeated. It's only been done once before. PAS with a win has a slim chance of avoiding direct relegation. Tie does not do them any good.
