  1. PAOK.jpgvs Panthrakikos.jpg

     

    MATCHUP:           P.A.O.K. Thessaloniki - Panthrakikos Komotini

    COMPETITION:    Greek Cup - Group Stage - Round 1

    DATE:                     28-October-2015

    TIME:                    20:30 GR  (17:15 GMT, 10:15 CDT, 02:15 AEDT next day)

    CITY/STADIUM:   Thessaloniki - Toumba Stadium (28,703)

    REFEREES:  

    TELEVISION:         OTE Sport TV (Greece), Laola1.TV, Antenna Satellite on tape delay basis (USA/Canada), Antenna Pacific on tape delay basis (Australia)

     

    Our first game in the group stage of the Greek Cup. Panthrakikos are the worst team in Superleague this season, so we should have an easy time with them. I expect to see some new faces in the lineup in this one.

     

    The game should be televised live on OTE Sport TV and Laola1.TV pending a court decision concerning the legality of OTE holding the TV rights for the Greek Cup games. In USA, Canada and Australia the game should be televised on Antenna Satellite/Pacific on a tape delay basis.

  2. Blackhawk, Aris not being in the Superleague, I cringe calling it that, has done wonders for my mental health!!!!

     

    Well hopefully they manage to clean up the trash that caused the team to end up in this position, so you can go back to be the good old Mitsos, when they come back to SL in two seasons. :D

     

    On a more serious note, I hope everything is cool with Evan.

  3. Kace is out for more than a month and be greatly missed. Tudor will have to come up with some new midfield formation. I hope it's not a Tziolis/Sabo duo. I think he will sit Sabo out and give Charisis a chance. Vitor is also doubtful, so Malezas will most likely get another start.

     

    Here is my lineup:

     

    -------------------- Glykos ------------------

    --- Costa ---- Malezas --- Tzavellas ----

    Rodrigues - Tziolis - Charisis - Leovac

    --------------------- Jairo ---------------------

    ------ Berbatov --------------- Mak --------

  4. The Berbatov signing was a Savvidis's wet dream. Let's hope it stops there and he does not do something foolish like bringing in Ronaldinho in January. 

     

    Like you said Boston not all 10 signings will pan out. And you don't bring in 10 new players and expect instant results. Let's be patient. So far we are still in the middle of all three competitions. We already reached one of our minimum goals, which was making the group stage of Europa League. As far as I can see we can still easily finish top 3 in SL and go far in the cup. 

  5. Panathinaikos is using the appointment of Aretopoulos as the ref for this game to create climate before the game. Yes Aretopoulos is a lousy ref, and has no business calling a Superleague game, but Panathinaikos is not the only team he screwed in the past. PAOK has been on the receiving end as well in the past. Let's hope he's not a factor in the game for either team.

     

    Tudor did player rotation today looking ahead to this game. I think that was a smart move. Some of our players should be rested and ready to play on Sunday. Should be a good game to watch. We definitively need to win this one.

  6. Charissis and Korovesis  should be given a chance as well.... 

     

    Of the two I think only Charisis showed that could fight for a starting position currently. The injury set him back and it will be tough for him to become a starter. Next week we have a cup game. I would expect some of those bench guys to get a chance to play.

  7. pelkas tried going through four people.

     

    There are some selfish players on PAOK roster. Pelkas and Rodrigues being two of them.

     

    We are playing ok defensively, but have tough time creating anything on offense. We will need to take some more risks if we want to win this game. I would take out Skondras and Jairo. Switch Rodrigues to the right and put in Leovac and Mak. Also throw in Berbatov down the road.

  8. Good result, but Qabala is not the team that we need to challenge for 2nd place. It's Krasnodar, and we need to beat them today, although I have bad feeling about this game. Hope I am wrong.

     

    This is the starting lineup:

     

    --------------- Glykos ------------------

    --- Vitor ----- Costa ----- Malezas ---

    Skondras - Kace - Sabo - Rodrigues

    --------------- Pelkas --------------------

    ------- Klaus ---------- Jairo ------------

     

    It's raining in Thessaloniki, and it is expected that the fan turnout will be very low. Half an hour before kickoff there are around 2,000 fans in the stands. If we get 10,000, I will be surprised. 

  9. Well Tudor listened to everyone and will make several changes in the lineup. He also said today that Europa League is not as important as Superleague, so this is a good time do it.

     

    Apparently he will field this lineup:

     

    --------------- Glykos ------------------

    --- Vitor ----- Costa ----- Malezas ---

    Skondras - Kace - Sabo - Rodrigues

    --------------- Pelkas --------------------

    ------- Klaus ---------- Jairo ------------

     

    He also announced the squad for the game:
