I am pretty sure the grannies will come to Toumba on Sunday to destroy the game. They will park the bus and commit endless fouls to disrupt our game. If we get a goal early I predict a blowout. let's not forget they have no offense. All their forwards are either injured or red carded. Also they don't have Velios anymore.
If I was Ivic my priorities would be:
- on Sunday score early and often and then rest players
- on Thursday rest some important players (even leave them in Thessaloniki) and try for the best. Tie is not a bad result.
- Throw everything against Olympiakos
My ideal lineup for this Sunday:
----------------- Glykos ---------------
Matos - Varela - Crespo - Leovac
-- Canas -- Biseswar -- Cimirot --
-- Campos - Klaus - Rodrigues -- -
-
-
Get a comfortable lead in the first half and then rest some of the big guys. Then do a mini rotation in Azerbaijan and be ready for the big game at Karaiskaki on Sunday.

I expect an easy win in this one. Something like 3:0 or 4:1.

Mystakidis was injured in the NT U-21 game against Israel, and most likely will not play against Hungary. Hope it's not serious.

Maniatis must be the most useless player on the field.

The solution is to completely disband EPO and start from scratch. Some of the criminals (Girtzikis and co.) have been removed, but a lot of their buddies are still at EPO running things. They completely destroyed the national team the past few years, and that has also been the case with the U-21 team.
The most important thing is to appoint a regular coach, and not some ex-player without any coaching experience.

ESPN3 in Australia and in the US is an online streaming service. It is also known as WatchESPN. Not sure how it works in Australia, but here in the US if you subscribe to the regular ESPN channels via satellite or cable you have online access to ESPN3. Of course you need to provide your credentials that you subscribe to those ESPN channels.
The game against Estonia will also be on ESPN3, both in the US and Australia.

That's right in the hypothetical scenario you are presenting. However in this instance nothing even close to that happened. So basically you are saying that if there is a play and there is a player(s) in offside position but they don't influence the play an offside call has to be made all the time.
And BTW I have heard otherwise about your exceptional refereeing.
-
The way I see it is that it looks like the said player tries to move out of the way (or trying to put himself on side). Does not look like he is deliberately trying block the Veroia player from reaching Pereyra.
Being a seasoned ref that you are I'll take your word for this being the wrong call, but I have my reservations about the rule.

The player in the off-sides position interferes with the defender trying to get back, by the new laws of the game that play is off-sides regardless of where the player receiving the ball was at that time.
How do you define interfering? That could be quite a loose interpretation, and taking into account the Greek refs those rules will be applied or not applied depending on what teams are on the field.
Looking at the pic I would not say anybody is interfering with Veroia players. The video is even clearer that there is no interference. See the link below at around 1:33 minute mark.

Too bad we could not get all the points against Xanthi and Veroia, considering we will drop quite a few points in the upcoming game.
Starting with the game against Iraklis we will play 7 games in 22 days, including couple derbies. This will be the big test this season. Can we withstand this grueling schedule with minimal damage?
Here is the schedule:
Oct 16: PAOK - Iraklis (Superleague)
Oct 20: Qarabag - PAOK (Europa league) - long trip to Asia
Oct 23; Olympiakos - PAOK (Superleague)
Oct 27: PAOK - Larisa (Greek Cup)
Oct 30: PAOK - AEK (Superleague)
Nov 3: PAOK - Qarabag (Europa League)

Ice hockey began in Greece in 1984. It was started by players with Greek origin that came back to Greece from countries such as Czechoslovakia, Soviet Union, Canada and USA. Originally five teams were formed: two in Athens/Piraeus, Chalkida and Thessaloniki respectively. The first ever ice hockey game played in Greece was in 1985.
In 1989 the first Greek ice hockey championship was held. The games took place at the Peace and Friendhip Stadium. The stadium featured a regular size ice rink, and was used for hockey games until 2000. Five teams took part in the competition, with Aris Thessaloniki becoming the first Greek champion. Aris also won the championships in 1990 and 1991, before Iptamenoi Athens captured their first title in 1992. They repeated that feat in 1993. However in 1993 funding was cut by the Undersecretary of State for Sports. As a result Greek championships were not held again until 2000. By that time all the hockey games and practices were held in the Moschato Ice Rink, which unfortunately closed down in 2003.
The Greek championships were resurrected in 2008, with six teams taking part and Iptamenoi Athens claiming the title. Additional championships were held in 2009 (8 teams), 2010 (9 teams), 2011 (7 teams) and 2013 (11 teams). All were won by Iptamenoi Athens except in 2011, which was won by Aris Thessaloniki. Iptamenoi did not take part that year.
The first Greek National Team was formed in 1990. It was a Junior national team, which took part in the 1990 World Junior Championships, Pool C held in Yougoslavia. The same team also participated in the 1991 World Junior Championships in Italy.
The first Senior Greek National Team was formed in 1992. The team took part in the World Championships, Pool C held in South Africa, finishing in 3rd place. Due to financial problems, the national team did not play again until 1995, taking part in Pool C of the World Championships held once again in South Africa. In 1996 the national team took part in in Poold D and Olympic Games qualifying campaigns held in Israel. Despite beating Israel twice (4:1 and 10:2), and destroying Turkey 19:0, all games were forfeited by IIHF, since the team used ineligible players.
The national team attended the 1998 and 1999 World Championships, but went on a long hiatus from international competition, because of a ban by the IIHF. The reason for the ban was the lack of proper size ice rink and lack of national championships in Greece. The ban was lifted in 2008, which allowed the national team to play in the 2008 and 2009 World Championships. In 2010 the World Championship Pool C was to be held in Greece at the new proposed ice rink in Nea Liosia. However that rink was never built, and the championships were switched to Luxembourg. It was there that produced the national team’s most successful tournament, by finishing in second place.
The national team took part in subsequent World Championships in 2012 (Turkey) and 2013 (South Africa), but at the end of 2013 was once again banned by IIHF from future World Championships until an Olympic size rink is built in Greece. This development pretty much slowed down the progress of Greek ice hockey, with the future being uncertain.

I don't think our big problem is the CF position. It's the midfield that can't create anything. If we had a creative midfield players, you could put a monkey as CF and score goals. There is no transition from defense to offense. It was so much evident in this game. Some low budget Mexican player managed all by himself to shut down our midfield. Charisis got a chance to prove himself, and was the worst player on the field. Cimirot's every touch on the ball resulted in a mistake. Big difference when Biswswar came into the game. Don't understand Ivic and his decision not to start him. Poor coaching decisions by him in this game. Why not start Kitsiou in his natural position, and instead go with Crespo?
