Ziaka Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 PAOK players have decided to strike until Friday, since they have not been paid since Christmas. The apateonas proedros Goumenos promised that the players wouldbe paid last Friday prior to the game with Olympiakos. The players waited until today to see if they would see any money. Since did not, they declared a strike. We have another Batatoudis on our hands. And this guy wants to build a new Toumba. :tdown: :tdown: :tdown: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitsos Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 I never realized P.A.O.K. had financial problems of this magnitude. I could never figure out how teams are allowed to bring in new players during a transfer period when they can't even pay players on their current rosters.

Ziaka Posted March 9, 2005 Author Share Posted March 9, 2005 You can add to this our ex-coach Fringer who will take his case to FIFA in order to get his money. PAOK allegedly owes him 100,000 Euro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nikolaos Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 Damn that's pathetic. Goumenos is another Batatoutidis... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ziaka Posted March 9, 2005 Author Share Posted March 9, 2005 I think Goumenos is worse. When Batatoudis first came to PAOK he put in some money. However Goumenos came to PAOK without any money. He is seeing PAOK as a chance to become rich using the team. I think in the PAOK will enter the arthro 44. Something that Anastasiadis predicted few months ago.

Ziaka Posted March 10, 2005 Author Share Posted March 10, 2005 Players are back at practice today. They are awating the next move by Goumenos tommorrow. If they are not paid they will stop practices on Friday and Saturday, and will show up directly in Crete for the game with Ergotelis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batigol Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 Yet another example of how this club's admin is so out of place and really don't know the first thing about how to run a club effectively. What a fool. Goumenos is going to run this club into the ground. That is, if he hasn't done so already. We don't know the full picture yet. The 'Arthro 44' option is wrong. But it looks like they'll probably end up using it in the end. Brutal times my friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The players finished the practice after being urged by the coach not to abandon do it. The players gave another ultimatum, which is next Tuesday. if they don't get paidf by then, they will resume their absence from practice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ziaka Posted March 15, 2005 Author Share Posted March 15, 2005 The players got paid today by Goumenos. After today's practice, 320,000 Euro was distributed among the players. Last Friday 90,000 Euro was distributed to some players, which means that the Goumenos distributed around 410,000 Euro out of the 1,200,000 Euro that is owed to them.
