Euro2004 Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 end of the road for volos then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irlandos Posted August 5, 2011 Author Share Posted August 5, 2011 I thought Volos was relegated and that UEAFA would kick them out. This is weird. If a team was caught cheating (yes, the owner, etc) that gave it an advantage over other teams, then why is it allowed to continue? It now has financial benefits from playing in europe. no? Oly Volou have an ongoing appeal with EPO.UEFA will wait and see what EPO does and then will follow suit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evalagoal Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 They are saying that Olympiacos Volou is finished playing in Europe.. and are also getting points deducted before the begining of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genome Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 They are saying that Olympiacos Volou is finished playing in Europe.. and are also getting points deducted before the begining of the season. 5 year ban in Europe for Volos? Is another Greek team taking its place? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Euro2004 Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 I dont think they are and i personally believe that that's unacceptable. UEFA being arseholes again. Greek football is essentially getting punished for taking positive action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
athinaios Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 I've suggested it before, if a team is caught cheating, it should be removed as if it didn't exist. The team that's a runner up should take its place. PLUS, all the money the cheaters made, say, by playing in the Europa league. Point-wise, it doesn't matter how many teams you've got in Europe for UEFA's standings, but the progress. In other words, it's better to have 1 team that goes to the semis, instead of 6 that don't make the first round. Points are divided by the number of teams from a particular country.

Greek football is essentially getting punished for taking positive action. Agreed. A team that should've made it instead of this cheating Olympiakos Volou, is now being punished, together with Greek football as a whole which now has one representative less.

PAO-1908 Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 Greek super league should have banned Volou before Uefa and sent another rep in Volou shoes . Any Greek team would have beaten the opponents that Volou played, But that is Greek style. Make a Muck over everything. :box: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
athinaios Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 Today, UEFA rejected Volos' appeal and their ban stands. Good. But, the team they beat twice is going through. I do understand that Greece's losing out, but what do you do at this late stage? You can't send another Greek team past the one Volos played. Can they? If any of out teams lost, say to another team that was eventually thrown out, then we'd expect OUR team to be going through, not some other one.... I don't think they can replay this round with new teams. I more angry at the Greek side (EPO, etc) that they're f@ked up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Differdange! :tdown: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackhawk Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Looks like Olympiakos Volos will follow Ergotelis and will drop out of the Football League this season for financial reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tzatziki Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Some of the games they played under Sakis Tsiolis were incredible. He might be the best Greek coach. Sad for the city of Volos, it's a decent size market for Greek standards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RED SHERIFF Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Looks like Olympiakos Volos will follow Ergotelis and will drop out of the Football League this season for financial reasons. all these 'clubs' are seeing this as a nice loophole to wipe off debt..
