The problem at PAOK is that it's the players that divide the locker room, and some of them have the backing and the support of sleazy PAOK reporters.

Looks like Tudor and possibly Arnesen will be history after tonight. Same story every year for the last 4 years. Savvidis just does not have a clue. As for AE Pontion, their season is complete success. They did not lose to the Turkish visitors (as they like to call us).

PAOK women's handball team won the Greek Cup today beating Nea Ionia 32:31. Now they are ready for the double.

Starting lineup: Hey, no Tziolis!

I am not challenging you. I am just repeating myself. Must be Friday. LOL Anyway if we don't improve our play it does not matter who we play. I remember Atromitos just a few years ago eliminating us from the cup final in Toumba, with Itanje gifting the win to his ex-team.

If this law is actually enforced, which I doubt, it will be interesting to see which of the existing national networks get to keep their licenses: Alpha Antenna Makedonia Mega Skai Star Don't forget that most of these stations have severe financial problems.

Which means that he risks of getting another red card. I am sure the Iraklis coach will take this into account. The main thing for not losing this game will be to prevent Iraklis players from feeding the ball to Vellios. Still I don't see how we will score. I predict a scoreless draw.

My lineup: -------------------- Vellidis ------------------ Kitsiou - Vitor - Chatziisaias - Tzavellas -------- Kace ------Tziolis ---- Cimirot ---- ---- Golasa ------------------------- Pelkas - ------------------ Berbatov -----------------

Leovac and Charisis are back practicing with the team, but I doubt if they will play. Mystakidis is definitively out, and Klaus a strong possibility that he will miss the game as well. And on top add the remaining 8 to 9 players that are out due to injuries.

They might not even be in European competition when the semis will take place. And even if they manage to get past Anderlecht, let somebody else (AEK would be a good choice) knock them out in the semis. That's why I think they will get Atromitos in the draw, so they can breeze to the final.

In the first half PAOK was very pathetic, and we should consider ourselves lucky that Panionios did not score. Chatziisaias had a great first half. The two changes Tudor made in the 2nd half stabilized the team and it prevented the opponent from creating dangerous situations. We even created couple attempts on goal. Apparently Klaus was subbed at half-time due to injury, and is another candidate to join the list of injured players.

Well if they are let them get knocked out in the semis by AEK and make the final wide open. Tomorrow EPO will decide when the draw will be held. My prediction for semifinal matchups are: PAOK - AEK Olympiakos - Atromitos

I don't see us winning this game. Don't know who will score for us, and Pontoii are playing their biggest game of the season. That is the only game they are looking forward to all season.

I don't want Olympiakos in the semis. The system will not let tem get knocked out of the cup again by PAOK as last time. Save them for the final, where it is one match and anything can happen. Atromitos is a good draw, followed by AEK. BTW the cup loser does not go to any European competition. Only the cup winner goes to Europa League group stage.

0:0 final. On to the semifinal.

Finally a scoring chance by pelkas.

Kace is coming in for Tziolis and Golasa in for Klaus.

The Berbatov/Klaus on the field at the same time experiment does not work. should be quite obvious to Tudor by now. Take one of them out. Put in Kace for god's sake. Pelkas is non-existent. Take him out on put in Golasa. if it wasn't for Chatiisaia, we would be trailing by now. Panionios scores, I don't think we can come back. Our only hope is a 0:0 tie.

Pathetic first half

The way we are playing if we managed to hold on to the scoreless tie it will be an achievement.

Lucky not to be down 1:0 right now.

So far he has been excellent. Clears out anything Panionios brings into the box. We have serious problems transitioning from midfield to offense.

Laola is on
