Greek female swimmer failed a doping test and will be sent back to Greece.

Of the 97 Greek athletes competing in Rio Olympics, only two of them (that I know of) that have an affiliation with PAOK.
The cyclist Giannis Tamouridis who is a member PAOK cycling team. He also races professionally with Cynergy Baku Cycling Project. He competes tomorrow in the Cycling Road Race.
The second athlete is Kelly Araouzou, who used to be member of PAOK swimming team. She now belongs to Olympiakos. She will race in the 10 KM open race and has a good chance to medal.

Have we played them before ? Sound familiar.
We did NOT play Dinamo Tbilisi.
We played Lokomotiva Tbilisi in 1999-2000
7:0 win in Tbilisi (Georgiadis 2, Frouso 2, Sabry, Maragos, Frantzeskos - our biggest European win ever score wise.
2:0 in Toumba (Valencia, Salpiggidis)
In late 1970's, early 1980's Dinamo Tbilisi had one of the better European sides, even wining the Cup Winners Cup in 1980-81. They were part of USSR them. Thats the season that Kastoria played them. 0:0 at Kaftanzoglio, 0:2 in Tbilisi.

We need to do good in Europe this season in order to accumulate points. Next season our bad showing from 5 years ago (thanks to Donis) will drop from the standings. This should strengthen our seeding position in Europe. Unfortunately after that our best season will also be dropped from the standings. That's why we need as many points as possible this season.

Can't really blame Klaus exclusively for not qualifying. Sakhov missed a sure goal as well and then there was the Mystakidis crossbar.
I was more disappointed in the way we played in the 2nd half. It almost looked like we were happy with 1;1 tie and taking it into extra time/penalties. This Ajax team was ready to go down. PAOK and the ref just let them get back into the game.
CF that is better than Klaus and Koulouris is a must. Hopefully Brkic pans out to be a good keeper and pushes Glykos into backup role. Also i am not conviced we got a "dekari" that will make the difference. Pelkas certainly is not the answer.

After having my dinner my thoughts are straightened and this is how I see it.
We lost together. Oh yes, Klaous should have scored more. Shakov should have. Leovac should have kept his hands from Viergever's body or positioned better. Ivic should have made another choice (a Mak-type for the tet-a-tet) or subbed earlier or not leaving Pelkas out of the squad. If If If, should should should.
Tomorrow the sun will rise again. I will be PAOK again. Till the day I die. For better or for worse. And I will look again. And again in agony. It will hurt sometimes. And someday we will win a kypelo or protathlima, but we will suffer more. That is the essence of being a supporter of clubs of the people like PAOK, Schalke or Liverpool. Even Atletico, where the supporters are called the sufferers.
Friday the sun comes up again and there will be a draw. With our next opponent and next dreams etc. etc.
Keep your heads up. PAOK imaste!!!
Great post Eagle. Agree 100%
CL was a dream and will continue to be a dream. Realistically we are not yet ready to make the group stage of CL.
We should now concentrate on Europa league and Superleague. Hopefully we have an easy draw tomorrow and we can make the El group stage. Our goal should be to qualify from the group stage into the Round of 32 and why not Round of 16.
Let's stay positive and i am sure things will get better.

Europe League Playoff round it is.
Draw is on Friday. PAOK will be seeded and should be draw against an "easy" team.
Qualifying from the group stage of Europa League should be the goal this season.

And the tradition against Dutch teams continues ...
-
Once the ref put them back in the game it was just a matter for them to grab the chance.
PAOK lost the game themselves. Ajax with one chance scored two goals.
-
Europa League it is then.
-
1:2
Game is over
-
Bisesvar in for Charisis

Bisesvar getting ready

Luck is not on our side today.

Dokari byMystakidis
-
70-30 possession for Ajax.
Mystakidis coming in for Rodrigues
-
We need to put some pressure on them. Can't let this go to extra time.
-
Hapoel - Olympikaos 1:0 for anyone that is interested.
-
Hate to say this. We let them back in the game, and I am afraid they will take advantage of this.
-
Instead of winning 4:0 it's a 1:1 game.

Tamouridis finished in 51st place out of 144 competitors. I watched the race on TV and there were many crashes. More than half the racers did not complete the race.
