PAOKSWEDEN

I think it might be true that they need some rest, after all they both have been injured and haven't played so much until now.

Today's results :) Basketball: PAOK - AEK 79-75 Volleyball: PAOK - Panathinaikos 3-0

Boston// Agree, I'd like to see a new dekari and two CBs but we'll probably see a new CB now and another one in the summer when Costa's contract will expire.

I want Iraklis in the quarterfinal and AEK/PAO in a potential semifinal. If two of the other three big teams draw each other tomorrow that would definitely help us. A question, will there be new draws for the semifinals or will they decide which winners meet each other tomorrow?

71% - 29%

http://www.gazzetta.gr/football/article/860687/skarione-panta-se-proto-plano-gia-ton-paok What do you guys think of this dekari? His stats are good*, although he hasn't got so many assists, and he would surely make a difference in the offense. It would be better if we can get him now rather than just before the qualifications for the CL/EL but only if we can get him at a fairly cheap price. * http://www.transfermarkt.de/oscar-scarione/leistungsdatenverein/spieler/47011

Just noticed how I posted the same song as DutchEagle^^, lol.

The game ended 88-75 Zlatan Muslimovic, a true fuc#ing legend. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10208361997066721&set=a.2167589268470.2131959.1208847054&type=3&theater

Aderfia, do you guys have Spotify? If you have, I can make my Greek playlist (370 songs so far) public and invite you so we can all add songs to it.

We should be very thankful to Savvidis for coming to us and for giving as an economical stability. The thing that makes me frustrated is that he doesn't know so much about running a football club and you would think that he would have hired some decent people to make a good use of the money he spends so that we can go up to another epipedo, but obviously he hasn't. No PAOK-fan can accuse him of not putting any money into the club, after all he's put in about 50 million euro, but if we start looking at what players we've had during his years most of them have been bosman players that have been getting far to high salaries. I don't think we've bought any player for more than 1,5 million euro but we've had guys like Maartens, Maduro, Spyropoulos getting salaries near the million every year. Also, most of the so called "talents" that we've bought during Savvidis's era haven't been of very high class and have simply been young players that the club have had the opportunity to contract at a low price. All this being said, this summer was better than any other under Savvidis as the management focused on bringing younger players, Rodrigues, Cimirot, Antonis etc. rather than overpaid 30-year olds, well except for Berba.. With another trainer things would maybe have been different and we would not criticize Savvidis. The fact that he contracted Berbatov, a player we didn't need, that will cost us 3-4 million Euro without involving Arnesen/Tudor remains though. It was a nice gift to the fans but I would rather see him put that kind of money on younger players with potential to grow in the club.

Nope, I have the same problem.

Ramirez has 1 goal and 0 assists in the 3rd division of Schweiz, what a transfer...

How do I delete my post? Blackhawk had posted the same info as I.

Yours to! Something interesting would be to investigate the opportunities for the best teams in Cyprus to join the Super League. I can only see a positive outcome for the league and Greek soccer if that would happen; +more competitive league, due to an increase of good teams and a decrease of the shitty ones +the above would make the league more attractive and would generate more sponsor money +higher attendance, both for the Greek clubs and for the "Cypriot" ones +the "Cypriot" clubs would get higher TV-revenues and would play better teams +broader exposure I can see how the clubs that would be replaced, for example Kalloni, Atromitos and Levadiakos etc. would react but the fact is that they don't belong in the GSL with attendances around 1k. Of course, the teams "left behind" in Cyprus would struggle BUT the Greek soccer, the Greek clubs and the Cypriot clubs would benefit much if this scenario would take place. One problem with taking the top-3 from Cyprus would be that we would have a total of 8 (when Aris returns) big clubs but only 5 CL/EL-spots. This doesn't have to be a problem though, as the competitiveness would increase and the league would be more funny to watch. Here's a link for the attendances of the Cypriot teams, as you can see attendances for the top teams are quite good and logically they would increase; http://www.european-football-statistics.co.uk/attn/avecyp.htm Here's the attendances for the Greek teams if you guys would like to compare; http://www.superleaguegreece.net/el/schedule Tell me what you think guys, what obstacles can an idea like this meet? Btw; sorry guys for hijacking your thread but I thought this would be better rather than have half the discussion here and the other half in another thread.

Would love to see him back in Larissa and the Super League next season. Unfortunately I think he'll stay in turkey as the wages are much higher there.

Sheriff// It's 12 mil for the group stage and 3*1,5=4,5 mil for the wins. Probably around 20 mil in total. As someone mentioned before, the tv revenue for the teams has a great impact on how the greek teams perform in the CL/EL. Someone mentioned 30 mil in total but I've read 20 mil but either way that's PEANUTS for a league that should have 3-4 teams in Europe each season. In Portugal, a country with a similar population, the top 3-teams just signed huge TV-contracts that will give the three clubs 40-50 mil euro EACH season. The Swedish league has a total revenue of 20 mil, and the Swedish teams play in CL/EL every second or third year... The competitive aspect in the GSL is the most crucial thing if we want higher revenues for the teams but I think we also have to blame Nova and the teams themselves for the low revenues. To this date, a good service providing the football enthusiasts the GSL all over the diaspora hasn't been released and I keep asking myself why. I myself can't watch PAOK play if the match isn't on Laola (something new for this season) so I can't watch the away games. If the top-4 clubs (5 when Aris is back) just released a good service together or a separate for each team I'm sure a lot of people would have signed up. I know you guys in North America have something called Sport plus (their website looks like s%$#!) but I don't have a service like that in Europe and would gladly pay 20-30 Euro/month for some Greek football. According to Wikipedia we have 3-7 million in the diaspora so I would think there's a market for a good global service providing the GSL over the internet. Also, I haven't seen any attempts from Nova or the clubs to try to expand in other countries like Bulgaria, Monkeydonia or eastern europe. They could have sold the rights cheap just to get people interested. Just like the above with the people in the diaspora I sometimes think that this is just the result of the Greek way of being lazy and comfortable with the situation as it is and not enough business-minded...
