Toumba Stadium

[Athens4]

goumenos couldnt build the stadium even if he wanted to. he hasnt got any money

[Ziaka]

Goumenos would not build it. Real Estate companies and banks want to build it and then own it for 50 years, with Goumenos being the manager of the project (ie. lifetime job).

[Athens4]

OK but whats the catch? How would Real Estate and other banks make profit from it?

[PAOK_001]

I got a bad feeling about this whole new stadium thing, I definetly don't want it to be built.

[NYC_Olympiakos]

OK but whats the catch? How would Real Estate and other banks make profit from it?

for starters they can profit from it by leasing the stadio

i think this project is also suppose to expand the Toumba area into a business area and that will increase the property value of that area

but these are my assumptions

[Athens4]

I dont want this stadium to be built. I think it will make us in debt even more! :angry:

[AEKARA-YIA-PANTA]

Whatever happens, just don't knock it down without having the new project in place....R.I.P Nikos Goumas Stadium!!!!!

[Ziaka]

The banks and real estate companies would control the various shops and businesses that would be part of the new stadium for the next 50 years. The bad part of the deal is that Toumba will no longer be the property of AS PAOK (Erasitexnis PAOK). The land where current Toumba sits is a very valuable piece of property. That's why the various real estate interests are buzzing around Goumenos and PAOK to develop this new stadium.

[paokarachampion]

toumba is a good stadium

[paokarachampion]

is paok getting a new stadium

[paokarachampion]

we wont be able to afford it to much money cause we just like come out of bankrupt

[Athens4]

While I was in Thess I went to Toumpa. Gates 1 and 2 are fine but all the others.... It needs destroying and rebuilding.

[paokarachampion]

yer of course thats why the need to improve the building cause there old........and the matches when we burnt the chairs

[tahmazis]

we really need a new stadium, i think we are gettin a new stadium holding 36,000 capacity or 40,000 capacity we better get it... it will make us look more professional aswell with all our new players.

[Spears]

A new stadium is 5-10 years away!

We need our own training facilties first!

A WORLD CLASS ONE

[tahmazis]

yer true ur right Spears, we should buy a traning ground first. As long as toumba is fine we need to get a traning ground first thing.

[Ziaka]

Looks like Toumba will be getting new turf:

[Ziaka]

The turf at Toumba was removed yesterday, and withing few days a new turf will be installed. The hope is for the new turf to be ready by the game with Iraklis, which will most likely take place on September 22.

This is how Toumba looks these days. The new turf should be ready for the game with Iraklis.

[NikosVazelas]

[Ziaka]

:LOL: Good one

yesterday I was watching the Bears - Bengals pre-season game at Soldier Field in Chicago, and the field was horrendous. A lot worse than the one at Toumba for the Spain game.

Why am I bringing this up? Because next week at the same stadium, the US will host Brazil with all its superstars.

[NikosVazelas]

only difference is the field can be fixed easily with the amount of dollars they have down there.

PAOK knew about the field all summer and it just got started gettin fixed even though the game vs spain was almost 10 days ago
