Dutch Eagle

wow. glad Levadiakos did not score that.

but he was off side anyway

Yep. 77% possession of the ball at this moment

Don't know, but gates 4, 5 and 6 look pretty packed.

1-0. Matos. Who else?!?!?!

An update on paokfc.gr dated January 3rd, 2018: http://www.paokfc.gr/nea/20171230-o-elegxos-examinou-ton-daneikon/

800K + Ergys Kace for free (only with a resale-clause but it is not clear yet what %) for Moledo. He has been offered a three-year contract. Moledo apparently only has the signing to do.

These players were selected by Lucescu for tomorrow’s game: Ρέι, Πασχαλάκης, Μάτος, Δεληγιαννίδης, Μαλεζάς, Κρέσπο, Βαρέλα, Μαουρίσιο, Σάκχοφ, Κάνιας, Τσίμιροτ, Πέλκας, Μπίσεσβαρ, Βιεϊρίνια, Τζάλμα, Λημνιός, Κουλούρης, Πρίγιοβιτς.

Terry Antonis left VVV Venlo for free to join Melbourne Victory. So with that 35%-resale clause we agreed on we just earned about 00000000,0000000 euro’s ............ Smart move. And with Klaus the same will happen.

The game will be on PAOK TV for € 1.99: http://inpaok.com/410428/παοκ-λεβαδειακός-στο-paok-tv/

The OFI-family lost one of it’s most beloved coaches ever. Eugene Gerards died today at the age of 77. Gerards, who lived in the village of Elia on Crete till he died, was the coach when OFI won their only silver: The Greek Cup in 1987.

Don’t know, jvc! Look at the ticket sales in Greece: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2017–18_Superleague_Greece. There is only one word: pathetic. Only the big 4 have above 5K spectators. Even my team can not fill Toumba every time. Maybe we need a total catharsis. I have a lot of comparison with the Dutch Eredivisie. Soccer is in a deplorabele state too. The National Team flunked and is absent at the WC. All clubs are eliminated from EL or CL. Only 4 wins. Utrecht won only one game against some guys from Malta and one (very good) win against Zenit. Feyenoord and Vitesse won their last MD against opponents that couldn’t care less about that game. Yet though in our league the spectators keep coming. Those truckers from the capital and Feyenoord have every game 50K(+) on board. Despite having a bad season. PSV has 30K. Lowest attendance was Excelsior Rotterdam - VVV Venlo: 3.704 (at the tiniest stadium with the maximum capacity of 4.500). Greece is a soccer-country like The Netherlands at the moment. No WC. But with one competitor left in EL! Greeks are considered to be passionate people but I can not see it when it comes to going to the stadium. Maybe it is the crisis. But bouzoukia, restaurants and kafenia are full. Most Greeks smoke like hell. Why not save some of that money and go the the stadium. Season tickets aren’t that expensive. Tickets for one game do not cost much either. Still there are no filled stadiums when the big 4 pass by. I see only the kerkides of PAOK-tzides. We overcrowd the home-spectators. Maybe because they tripled the prices as against Platanias cheapest ticket was 30 euro against us. Is it corruption that keeps people away from the stadium? Than maybe bankruptcy is the right answer. But in other countries referees make mistakes too. Here cupfinals were won with offside goals too. In Spain Barcelona only this year were not allowed two 100% goals that were clear over the line. Spanish refs are the worst there are. Yellow if you grab someone’s shirt. Nothing for a clear foul. Ramos got away with it with just 24 red cards. Should have been some 50 or so. So are we different from other countries? Don’t think so. Everywhere the big clubs get the benefit of the doubt. Unless fraud is detected. Like Calciopoli in Italy. Just nail that club(s) with fines and relegation. But I don’t expect that in Greece as there is nobody willing to, it seems. Otherwise there would have been a law like in England that works against hooliganism. I like the bengalika at stadium but it must be done organised. Not by the hooli-leaders. Kekleismenon thiron is not the answer after yet a game with flares. So we need some self-deflection and balls in Greece. Ai, why starts my brain hurting just at this moment .....

They withdrew from the SL in March 2015 : http://www.sport-fm.gr/article/podosfairo/apoxwrise-o-ofi/3078491 In May 2016 OFI were promoted to Football League: http://www.ant1news.gr/news/Sports/article/444242/anebike-sti-football-league-o-ofi Don’t know if they can do the trick again. Personelly I am not charmed of this method to get rid of debts and start all over again like nothing happened.

Levadiakos has found some new sources I think. They just announced their third new signing this week. See Levadiakos Transfers (in and out). I can not rate the other two but Markovski could a pain in the @rs as he scores pretty easy.

Glykos is in the final stage of his return to the squad. It’s just a matter of time we can field a whole team of keepers ......

Levadiakos also signed Jordao Diogo (from Kerkyra) for one year and a half and Marko Markovski (from Panaitolikos) for 2,5 years.

The players of OFI announced that they haven’t received money for two or three months and that they now will leave the club. Some players are entitled to get their wages from last season. According to the rules they can go to any team they want without a fee for OFI.

Pana must pay their debts of 5.6 mio before March 1st. If not they will be expelled by UEFA for the next three years in Europe (2018-19, 2019-20, 2021-22).

According to Swedish media Niklas Hult has been offered a million euro (not known for how many years) by us as he received only 17,500 this year from Pana and wants to leave as soon as possible.

Lionel Messi deserves a new topic of his own as the old disappeared.

Before the transferwindow is even open Levadiakos announced the transfer of Souleymane Sawadogo. He is a 24 year midfielder from Burkina Faso. He played for French second division club Chateauroux. And before that at Clermont and Auxerre.

No doubt: a fat red card. Just look at this old vid from a red card for Nani in a CL-game who just reached the belly button of his opponent. You have a clear view at about 0:40

Greece stuck on #47 after todays new release.

Second goal looks to me more and more an owngoal. Definitely need another colour of the names and numbers on the back of this away kit / third kit. Do not like this shiny backside.
