PAOK athlete with special needs Stella Smaragdi broke the world record in triple jump with 9.95 meter during the Track and Field Panhellenic Championship for athletes with special needs. She also won the long jump competition with 5.21 meters.

It is reported that following a meeting between EPO president and Aggelos Anastasiadis the decision was made for Anastasiadis to be terminated as the coach of the national team. That includes his full staff (Basinas, Giannakopoulos, etc). It is also reported that they are already looking for a replacement from a foreign country (Spain, Italy or Italy).

Kace was the most senior PAOK player on the field at that point.

Well Ferreira answered some of my question during the post game Q&A. He even sprung some surprises. He said that he wants a squad of 21 player + 3 players from U19 + 3 keepers. Then he went on saying that the three from U19 that will continue the preseason training are Gaitanidis, Tsiggaras and Michailidis (the CB that stayed behind in Thessaloniki during the first part).

After today's game it will be interesting who will Perreira cut from the second part of the preseason training. I think Chatziisaias, Tsiggaras, Deligiannidis will be the first cuts. Lambrou, Henrique, Kace to follow. The rest will depend on the transfers we will make. Just my opinion.

Douglas 3:0. Another nice assist by Biseswar.

Pelkas 2:0 after a nice pass by Akpom.

Specially on our left side. Biseswar is having a field day. One thing we learned from Kolkas is that the price of tsipouro is going up.

Can somebody else than Pelkas take the corner kicks?

That sure was a penalty.

The Romanians are going all out. National anthems and all.

Don't believe I am stuck listening to commentary by Stavros Kolkas. Can't PAE PAOK find someone else?

Looks like they secured the worldwide rights so everyone can see it on PAOK TV. ? Yes it's the 2nd division Cluj. The good one played Wednesday in CL qualifying losing to Astana. We actually want them to eliminate Astana.

Three Romanian channels are showing the game: Digi Sport TV, Look Plus and Telekom Sport 1. I am sure there will be illegal streams.

Wernbloom was supposed to practice with the team right now, but if he doesn't in 2 month he might as well hang them up. Mauricio is expected to start training in October. Vieririnha in December.

Anything over 2 mil and I will drive him to the airport.

CL results after the 1st leg: Ferencvaros - Ludogorets 2:1 BATE - Piast 1:1 Astana - CFR Cluj 1:0 Sarajevo - Celtic 1:3 In bold teams that we need to be eliminated (3 out of 4) in order for PAOK to be seeded in the draw and avoid Ajax. Can't see it happening.
