Larisa has the biggest anti-PAOK fans (The Monsters) out there. Not even gavroi come close. They stormed the offices where Kougias and Anastasiadis were negotiating the terms and let their views know they are against him coming to AEL. Following that they released a statement that they don't want a "Mbaoktzi and a senior citizen" coaching their team.

PAOK's representation in EURO 2016: Mak - Slovakia Kace - Albania Also ex-PAOK representation: Vierinha - Portugal Stoch - Slovakia Necid - Czech Republic Rats - Romania Schildenfeld - Croatia Olsen - Sweden and of course Fernando Santos - Portugal

He has not signed with PAOK yet, as far as I know. Let's hope he is a replacement for Jairo and not Mak. Apparently he wants 800K. That is double of current Mak's salary!

Aggelos Anastasiadis signed as the new head coach of AE Larisa.

Let's discuss possible PAOK roster for 2016-2017. Here is what I want to see: GOALKEEPER TRANSFER Glykos Siabanis DEFENSE RB Matos Kitsiou Konstantinidis CB TRANSFER Vitor Malezas Chatziisaias Tzavellas LB Leovac Gianoulis (Matos) (Tzavellas) MIDFIELD DEFENSIVE MID TRANSFER Tziolis Kace (Charisis) OFFENSIVE MID TRANSFER Sakhov Charisis Cimirot OFFENSE RW Rodrigues Mystakidis DEKARI TRANSFER Pelkas (Pereyra) LW Mak TRANSFER Pereyra CENTER FORWARD TRANSFER Klaus Koulouris Players to leave for good: Melissas, Vellidis, Skondras, Golasa, Berbatov Players to be loaned: Jairo, Antonis, Korovesis, Sabo, Savvidis, Deligiannidis

The only verified TV coverage is on Fox Sports Australia.

Apparently we have a friendly game set with Shakhtar Donetsk, but it might be cancelled if we get drawn against them in the CL qualifying.

You guys really expect to see competitive plays in these two games? You have to realize that all the players are treating this as a nice little vacation. I don't see any interest in these games except for the NT fans down under. The games will not even be televised outside of Australia as far as I know.

The fans beat the PAOK reporters 8:0. Not surprising after seeing Kolkas with his beer/gyro gut playing.

I would not let Cimirot go. Keep him for at least one more season. Sabo today said that he expects to be loaned out for next season. I think Vellidis is gone. The is a clause in his contract that after 6 months he will return to Giannina if we are not happy with him. I also expect Skondras and Golasa to be gone sooner than later.

PAOK is offering Vitor a 2-year contract worth 350K per season. Currently he is making 300K per season. Not sure if he has a better offer from Turkey. For that money I don't see a problem for him staying, as long as we will go ahead and sign a solid starter in the CB position.

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.
