They are jumping from joy:

The major issue I have with this is that they don't show PAOK home games. No way I'll spend money watching Platanias playing Levadeiakos.

Forgot to mention that they have a free preview until September 19.

Well we are upon a new Superleague season, and for the PAOK fans there is still not a reliable service to watch the PAOK games. At least not the home games. Last season PAE PAOK let Laola1.TV stream the games live, but it appears that this will not be the case this season. I inquired about this with PAE PAOK and got the following reply: So it appears that they are working on setting up some kind of long term service. If you ask me, this service should already have been in place, way ahead before the season starts. In the meantime Novasport has introduced a new Superleague streaming service for fans outside of Greece. All Superleague games will be streamed live, and all will also be available via Video On Demand one day after the game. This service does not include the home games of PAOK. This service is available in the following regions: EUROPE (except in Romania, Serbia, Croatia, Slovenia, Montenegro, FYROM, Greece and Cuprus) ASIA (except in Israel) AFRICA This service IS NOT available in North America and Oceania!!!! The cost is as follows: Annual Superleague Pass: Introductory price: €80.00 (regular price €135.00) Weekly Superleague Pass: Introductory price: €6.99 (regular price €11.99) There is a free preview until September 19.

€80 for the whole season (Annual Pass). This is an introductory price. Full price is €135. Weekly Pass is €6.99 (11.99 regular price). All games are included, except for PAOK home games. Also this service IS NOT available in North America and Oceania.

That's the result of our mangies in the cup game against Olympiakos.

There are several red flags in my opinion. - signing Djebbour to a 3-year contract, when he is allready 33 years old - the size of the contract (600 - 700K per season), when the team operating budget for this season is around 3 mil and without any substantial income from participating in Football league - the fact that the team majority shareholder can't sustain operating his other business ventures (Marinopoulos) without loss - Djebbour's past on Greek teams. Everywhere he went, he created problems I'd be surprised if Djebbour last the full 3 seasons at Aris.

Veroia is in danger of being kicked out of Superleague after failing to receive a license, since the transfer of shares from Karypidis to the new owner can't be verified. Karypidis had to get rid of his Veroia shares after taking over Aris.

Meanwhile it is reported that all the EPO employees (including Girtzikis) implicated in the 29 million Euro player insurance scam will step down from their positions, only one day before they would have been forced out legally by sports authorities. Temporary EPO board will be put in place until the elections are held at the end of October.

Looks like UEFA is looking into the prosecutor's allegations.

The TV coverage for us outside of Greece is still up in the air as of today. Novasport is apparently starting a new streaming service for viewers outside of Greece for Superleague games. reports are that this service will cost around 80 Euro. Unfortunately PAOK is the only team whose home games will not be included in this streaming service, since we did not sign the Superleague deal with Novasport concerning the international TV rights. Last season PAOK's home games were televised on Laola1.TV, however it appears that this might not be the case this season. Rumors are that PAOK is trying to strike a deal with a different company. Hopefully they come up with something very soon.

I am fairly sure he will go with Klaus on top of offense. I also don't think he will use Tzavellas as LB. My lineup: ---------------- Glykos ----------------- Kitsiou - Varela - Tzavellas - Matos ----- Cimirot ----------- Charisis ----- Campos ---- Sakhov ---- Rodrigues ----------------- Klaus ------------------

Leovac will not be able to play for the first two Superleague games due to red card punishment from last season. Ivic is thinking of using Matos there. Kind of stupid, when you have Tzavellas and Giannoulis available.

Olympic gold and bronze medal winner Anna Korakaki will honored by PAE PAOK before the game.

Anything is possible. In my opinion 99% of all medal winners at the Olympics use enhancement drugs.

That's so wrong on many levels.

Portugal - Greece 1:0 Our chance of qualifying from this groups is pretty much gone.

Plus 1,000 distributed to unemployed PAOK fans by the so n of Savvidis.

Ivic was not even at the game. He sent his assistant and Pablo Garcia, the coach of U20, even though half the players were from U17.

Dumb decision by Superleague to bend over for Forthnet to start the league from Round 3. Why everything has to be done backwards in Greece?
