Yes, Ninis signed a 2.5 year contract with PAO late last summer. Fetfatzidis will be kinda free in the summer.. I doubt Genoa paid any of the money they owe OSFP yet..

As for AEK, their squad is currently worth around €13 million. Good to know that is all you need to spend to get out of the Greece second division.. 

As for the AEK stadium, they now need only one more licence, each day there is works there now.. if built it will bring Greek football at least into 2001. If PAO modernise their stadium and PAOK enlarge and renovate the Toumba.. Greece will be a decent modern footballing country (not in reality, but he stadia will at least look good.. )

Any news regarding the "scandal" ?

[Faliro]

 

You know how Greece is a piece of dirt country that could not organise a piss up in a brewery? Well this scandal is the same. It seems to change from day to day. I read today something about a second Veria investigation that is about to be opened!  Obviously they were not happy with the results of the first one!

Again, this is being done is such a amateur fashion. No one really knows what is going on.. it is like a bad episode of the X-files.

I think it should blow over.. however, hopefully now everyone is a little more scared to fix games.. the clubs doing this sort of thing were usually the smaller ones. They would fix a result and than put €100,000s on the exact scoreline at betting shops.

Anyway, it is good news AEK are back. I am pretty sure PAOK will be forced to spend more this season, or find themselves second to AEK..behind Olympiakos of course..

Savvidis the owner of PAOK said recently he wants PAOK to be a top 20 team in Europe. That quote alone will make me laugh all next season. Pontian Greeks are famous for not spending much money.. lets see how he is going make PAOK a top 20 team now they are debt free as of last week.

Around this time of year Greek teams begin to look to sign faded stars.

Essien is close to PAO.
Van de Vaart close to AEK.

Can gire something to tese teams, honestly, if they have some desire.

What a play from Ninis, can't believe a talent like him is still lost in Greece.

[Faliro]

I agree Omar.. The problem with Ninis is that he is a sensitive man. If the coach does not believe in him, he does not push forward. When the coach says, Ninis is a starter and talented, he can do what you just saw every week.

Super talent and like the few Greeks with his ability over the years.. not a fan favorite. A lot of the blame falls to the media in Greece he made numerous campaigns against him.

[Godescalco]

Ninis was a FM wonderkid a few years ago.

It is that time of the season where I share something meaningless and ridiculous with my Portuguese friends, but also something weird and entertaining.

Every now and again a story breaks in Greece that changes the way people think... an event so important and fundamental to our lives, that it takes years.. sometimes decades to fully understand the magnitude of what we have witnessed.

Queue some Greek guy in his house in Serres killing a snake with an axe this week.. He begins: ''the cat was near.. the woman shouts snake.. I come with the axe..'' He then boasts about how he dealt with the snake - with extra 'cobra' sounds for effect. Complete bullshit news story.. went viral..

Here is him in a change a clothes... Notice the 5-a-side trainers, bandanna, Frappe (sketo) etc..

Of course the media and bloggers got hold of this within hours..











A few words in English as he watches his cat eat the snake..

Kougias is scum. I should have watched this one to see him get arrested..

AEK 1
Panaxaiki 1

Kougias is corrupt lawyer who takes everyone to court for libel. He runs his mouth off, is extremely stupid and lies 24/7. He has stated he resigning as the owner of Panaxaiki 3 times at least. He is perhaps one of the worst owners of any Greek club.

He was arrested today - he was causing trouble from the stands and the police ripped him out the stands and arrested him..


In your face you filthy piece of dirt.

[Covenant]

Ahah seems funny.

[sbremoved_28408]

 

We have our own special chairmans here in Portugal

But nothing like that 

[Faliro]

So many owners in Greece are dogs. Kougias is easily the worse. He just moved his club, Panaxaiki (based in Patras) to the city of Corinth... without consulting the fans... 

Anyways... AEK still chasing Orlando Sa. Also chasing Ronald Vargas. Simoes is already theirs.

PAO will give Essien a medical tonight in Athens.

Olympiacos looking for Filip Helander of Malmo and Ishak Belfodil of Parma.

PAOK want Michael Laudrup as coach as advised by their new TD.

Belfodil would be a good signing.
