Apparently Lubos Michel will announce several signings, including the two that everyone already knows about (Matos and Shakhov). Also, just heard Vitor on radio saying that there is still a chance that if PAOK wants him, he will stay.

Happy Ivan:

Ivan pretty much just announced that Ivic will be our head coach. Ivan also said that he wanted Ivic to take over the coaching position last season, but ivic himself told him he was not ready.

By winning the playoffs the team now has a chance (even if it is a slim one) to finally make the group stage of CL. Worst case scenario for our CL qualification process is that we end up in the playoff round of Europa League, and we also have a chance to get a direct entry into Europa League group stage if we lose in the playoff round of CL qualification process. The main thing though is that we have a chance for the group stage of Champions League. Ivan now needs to bring in some solid players for us to have a chance though.

I'll take Sparta Prague.

1:1 final score. PAOK WINS THE PLAYOFFS UNDEFEATED.

Big save by Glykos

Berbatov coming in.

Vitor was great against AEK, and is ok today despite the fact that he will not continue with the team Tziolis as been the MVP of the game so far today. Korovesis in for Pelkas. Good move.

The PAO goal was a lucky bounce, but we also sat back after going ahead. We need to play smart in second half and try to score a goal.

What a lucky goal.

1:1

The worst thing would be to sit back and try to hold the score.

Vitor signed for some low lever Turkish team apparently.

Goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool Rodrigues

Big chance by Malezas to open the score.

We have option for playing for two results, while PAO will have to take risks. I like our chances.

Considering Kace will not be available for the Panathinaikos game I would sit out Charisis out and have him ready for Tuesday.

Lost the game on paper 3:0 and fined 4,000 Euro by FIFA for fielding a ineligible player in the game. The player in question was Giannou, who had not right to play for the Greek national team since he played in several Australian youth national teams. THE ABSOLUTE KSEFTILA BY EPO AND THE PUPPET GIRTZIKIS.

The funny thing is that with two ties in your last two games we are guaranteed 1st place in the playoffs. On the other hand is that if we get a win (and 3 points) against AEK and lose to Panathinaikos at home we will finish in second place.

Current playoff standings: 1. PAOK 10 2. AEK 8 3. Panathinaikos 7 4. Panionios 1 Games remaining ROUND 5 AEK - PAOK Panathinaikos - Panionios Round 6 PAOK - Panathinaikos Panionios - AEK

The game in regular season don't count for anything. The final regular season standings are taken into account as a 5th tie-breaker if things are all tied in the playoffs.
