LAOLA1 is still advertising the Greek Cup, but it might be a holdover from last season. I don't see a schedule posted on their site to confirm.

Incidentally - I just saw that they had CL games. Interesting!

[Athens4]

I'll be landing in New York at 9am on the day. Will see if the fan club in Astoria will be opening up.

[Blackhawk]

Pretty sure they will. They show all the games.

Histrically, Aris has not eliminated PAOK in the cup since 1962. That's over half a century.

[Yiankos]

Από τη στιγμή που περνάνε δύο ομάδες δεν υπάρχει περίπτωση να μην περάσει ο ΠΑΟΚ στην επόμενη φάση. Λιγοστές οι πιθανότητες να περάσει ως δεύτερος.

Laola1.TV will have the game live. In fact they will be showing all the Greek Cup games scheduled for next week.

No reason not to have a massive rotation for this; it'll give a moderate challenge for our second string guys and we'll still have two much easier games after to qualify through.

 

                          --Rey-

--Kitsiou--Malezas--Hatseridi--Tosca--

          --Wernbloom--Shakhov--

    --Limnios--El Kaddouri--Warda--

                     --Akpom--

 

Unless Garcia's got any good wingers to take Limnios' place?

[Yiankos]

Κι εγώ συμφωνώ, από την άλλη όμως είναι και ρίσκο το να αλλάξεις ολοκληρωτικά την ομάδα. Δεν ξέρω αν ο Λουτσέσκου θα το κάνει, αλλά παίκτης που ξεκίνησε με την ΑΕΚ δεν πρέπει να ξεκινήσει με Άρη. Έχουμε και τον ορίτζιναλ γαύρο να αντιμετωπίσουμε την άλλη εβδομάδα.

Το μόνο που φοβάμαι είναι ότι με Μαλεζά και Χατσερίντι δεν θα στρίβει κανείς στην άμυνα. Όχι ότι χρειάζεται και ιδιαίτερη προσπάθεια, με τον Άρη παίζουμε.

Εδώ θυμίζεις τον παλιό Yianko του Greeksoccer. Γέλιο που ρίξαμε τότε!

Now for the game, it would be great to see Akpom start. He really deserves a chance to show what he can do. Rotation is good though we must be careful as we are playing against the biggest team in northern Greece who is also unbeaten in Europe for more than 40 years.

[Blackhawk]

So is Athinaikos Byronas, but who is counting.

I don't think there will be massive rotation. You can't hrow in Malezas and Khacheridi and expect them to gel. Most likely Khacheridi will get the start. Also I think Wernbloom, El Kaddouri and Karelis will start.

 

[Dutch Eagle]

The squad for this game:

Ρέι ,  Σιαμπάνης ,  Μάτος ,  Κίτσιου ,  Τόσκα ,  Μπαλογιάννης ,  Κρέσπο , Χατσερίδης ,  Σάκχοφ ,  Βέρνμπλουμ ,  Κάνιας ,  Μπίσεσβαρ ,  Πέλκας ,  Ελ Καντουρί ,  Ζαμπά ,  Λημνιός ,  Πρίγιοβιτς ,  Καρέλης ,  Ακπόμ .

Not included due to various reasons:

Paschalakis: Suspended

Warda: Disciplinary Reasons

Vieirinha: probably rested

Malezas: was expecting him, but Balogiannis is younger and probably selected to fullfill the youth% needed in cupgames.

 

 

[Blackhawk]

Varela, Mauricio, Vierinha to be rested. Paschalakis and Warda punished by EPO/Lucescu. Also not included in the squad is Malezas.

Here is the squad for the game:

Ρέι, Σιαμπάνης, Μάτος, Κίτσιου, Τόσκα, Μπαλογιάννης, Κρέσπο, Χατσερίδης, Σάκχοφ, Βέρνμπλουμ, Κάνιας, Μπίσεσβαρ, Πέλκας, Ελ Καντουρί, Ζαμπά, Λημνιός, Πρίγιοβιτς, Καρέλης, Ακπόμ

My lineup:

------------------------ Rey ------------------------
Matos - Khacheridi, Crespo - Tosca
------- Wernbloom ------ Canas -----------
Jaba ------- Biseswar ---- El Kaddoouri
--------------------- Karelis -----------------------

PAOK front office better keep an eye on Karypidis, the so called owner of Aris. Karypidis decided that he will be the team leader at Toumba and I would not be surprised if sits on the bench as well. All this after he was spotted attending the Olympiakos game against Panionios and having a discussion with the clown Savvas Theodoridis (VP of Olympiakos). It's no secret that Karypidis is an Olympiakos supporter since young age. Let's guess who the next opponent of PAOK is in Superleague.

[Yiankos]

Δεν πρέπει να απαντήσουμε σε προκλήσεις. Παίζουμε με το ασανσέρ που θα παλέψει να βγει 5ος και το πιο πιθανό να τερματίσει κάπου 6ος με 10ος. Πήραν δύο παίχτες από τον Ολυμπιακό ως "ελεύθερους" και φυσικά ο Καρυπίδης έχει σχέσεις μαζί τους.

Θα ξεκινούσα Κάνιας με Σάκχοφ για να ξεκινήσει Πόντους-Μαουρίσιο με Ολυμπιακό. 

[Blackhawk]

[BostonThanatos]

I'd like to come out with an early lead and get Akpom in there...

[pash]

Strong lineup, I def want to see Akpom but I REALLY want to see how Kitsiou does.

[Blackhawk]

Apparently there were trouble between police and masked hooligans. Now we know what Karypidis and Theodoridis were discussing at Nea Smyrni. 

[pash]

Kitsiou gets a card 2 minutes in. Laola not yet working for me

[Blackhawk]

Laola is on!

[Blackhawk]

I just love watching games without announcers.

[Blackhawk]

Penalty for PAOK.

[pash]

El Kaddouri is VERY good today

Clear hand ball, amazed our foreign ref caught it ?
