Larisa signed Albanian Antoni Fatjon from Apollon Smirnis. The year before that he played in Lamia. He signed for three years. Also signed for three years: Nikos Gkolias from Anagennisi Karditsas.

We are interested in Petros Orfanidis of Xanthi and Ognjen Gnjatic of Platanias. Don't know if they are any good. Their managers probably did a good job.

OFI is heading for THE transfer of this summer: They want to bring Georgios Samaras back to Crete.

Today Xanthi announced keeper Zivko Zivkovic. He is 27 and comes from "our brothers" Partizan. He will be wearing #20.

Uruguay is eliminated after a second loss. After losing the first game against Mexico (1-3), "La Celeste" now lost against Venezuela (0-1).

We are apperantly close in signing keeper Michael Agazzi from Milan. He was on loanbasis at Middlesbrough last season but was on the bench behind Dimitris Konstantopoulos. He will turn 32 next month. Are we really looking for this kind of second class keeper???

Don't know, but their coefficient over the last years is better: http://www.uefa.com/MultimediaFiles/Download/competitions/General/02/25/55/93/2255593_DOWNLOAD.pdf

Xanthi signed 29 defensive midfielder Pablo de Lucas Torres from Viitorul Constanta in Roumania. He will be wearing #6. Before Viitorul he played at Beitar Jerasalem (Israel) and Petrolul Ploiesti (Roumania). He is originally from the youth-academy of Sporting de Gijon. Don't think he will be a major improvement for Greek soccer though.

Nikos Triantafyllidis died today of cancer. He just finished the making of the film of our 90th anniversary. He was only 49....

He is over the hill. Would be a waste of money.

http://www.rtvoost.nl/sport/uitslagen.aspx#page=klasse&kid=1820 The game will be played at a club called DOS'37 in Vriezenveen. A village 2,5 hrs from Hannover, 1,45 hrs from Dortmund and 2 hrs from my place. The game starts 14:30.

My kids are Bougatsa-fans!

But July 16th would be great as it is in the weekend and just an one hour drive.

Twente is the club of Giorgios Katsikas. They were relegated due to financial chaos and not doing anything to change it. Even after several warnings, consisting of deduction of points, fines and even not entering CL or EL if they manage to qualify. The chaos started with an unhealthy construction with Doyen investmentfund and wanting to become champions which they actually achieved in 2010. Twente went to the court and the decision is expected June 10th. If the relegation stands I don't think it will be a dinato filiko.

And today Necid scored the winner in the final minute against Russia.

They are playing Pontiaka for celebrations right now! :-)

July 15th we will now our fate: Shakhtar Donetsk, Ajax, Anderlecht, Fenerbahce or Sparta Prague. Game July 26th or 27th

Athlos Ontos. Who would have expected this during Christmas. I didn't.

Bravo, Glyko!!!

Run Gojko, Run....

Good that the kerkides are filled. Professional football is supposed to be played in front of a crowd and not empty stands.

Damn
