Nice

What a beauty.

70-30 possession but nothing to show for it. Not even close.

I am sure Moulin will get some playing time. He needs to get into game shape for upcoming games since Canas has been mediocre so far and Mauricio ended up without energy at the end of the last game. In an ideal world, the score will be 2:0 at half time and we can put in Moulin and Azavedo to rest Matos and Mauricio. I have a bad feeling that referees will play a major part in the outcome of this game.

pash I don't think Azevedo will start, so expect Vieirinha as LB. Maybe if the score is 2:0 in our favor at half-time Vierinha can switch to RB and Azevedo comes in. Also it would be foolish for Koulouris to start. The only other change I can see is Limnios instead of Mak. I I prefer Mak since Limnios has not been that good the last few starts.

Angelis was 81st out of 119 competitors. Good showing. Ralli did well but not as good as 4 years ago in Sochi, where she was 33rd in the same event.

Our two competitors today in action:

That's a 6 position improvement for Ralli as opposed to the Sochi 2014 competition. In Vancouver 2010 she finished 53rd in the same event. She will also compete in the Slalom competition. As for Danou, she did worse than in Vancouver 2010, where she finished 73rd in the same event.

As well he should. There are numerous posts on AEK sites organizing "get-togethers" in Lamia. Let's not forget the big fiasco few years back when the Final 4 of the Handball was played in Lamia and the AEK and PAOK fans turned the town into a war zone. I am sure that the gangster Melissanidis and the Olympiakos are hoping for something like that to happen. It would play right into their hands. And on top of that we have "our own" Gate 4 releasing an announcement saying that they will go to Lamia no matter what. The team needs to go to Lamia, win the game with ease since we have a much better team and return to Thessaloniki and start getting ready for the game with Olympiakos. Any other extra curricular activities in the town of Lamia will play into our opponents hands.

There are rumors local AEK fans were planning an "event involving PAOK fans" during the game in order for PAOK to be punished. The other AEK move was AEK owner Melissanidis visiting EPO to complain about refereeing in Superleague. As a result Athenian crew will call the game on Saturday. I hope all PAOK fans stay away from Lamia. As for the game itself, Shakhov is out due to cards and Campos is questionable due to injuriy. Speaking of cards, Matos, Mauricio an Biseswar are siting on 3 yellows. If they receive a card on Saturday they will need to sit out one of the following games: Olympiakos, Tripoli, AEK, Atromitos.

PAOK should not officially get any tickets. Leave it to individual fans to find their way into the stadium if they want. That way the team will not be held liable for any possible trouble. Considering that Lamia is very friendly relations with AEK owner, I would stay away from there and not risk any possible game bans/point deductions.

NOVA has just announced that it will not extend the collective agreement with Superleague for the 2018-2019 season. This basically means that unless the Superleague teams find another broadcaster (COSMOTE?) to pick up the collective deal, each team will be able to negotiate a television deal with any TV channel on their own just like PAOK did this season with NOVA. If this actually happens a lot of the small team will fall on hard times as they rely heavily on TV revenue. The biog 4 or 5 teams will have no problem finding a TV home.

Most likely. She will finish somewhere in the middle of the pack if we go by her past results in the Olympics BTW Angelis finished 74th in the same event in the last Olympics as well.

Eagle unfortunately that is the state of Greek football these days.

Angelis was 74th out of 80 competitors. Normal for a Greek athlete in Winter Olympics competition. He will also take part in the 15 KM Freestyle race. Danou will compete in the 10 KM Freestyle race. Antoniou and Ralli will take part both in Slalom and Giant Slalom competititions.

I'd like that too, but will settle 1:0 win in both games.

3:0 final. Very good football played by the team today.

Yeah but we are cursed when we play at that stadium.

Let's see if it survives the appeal process.

And goes and hugs his kid who is a ball boy.

Varela 2:0
