Draw for the Football League took place today.




Suddenly a group of 30 hooligans in balaclavas and helmets raided the event 5 minutes after the draw was made.  They were armed with old school wooden clubs. They beat up a few people (children were present at the event), smashed the place and then smashed parked cars outside and threw flares. After their dose of ultra violence - they got bored and left. Zero arrests as police arrived a while after the hooligans left.  One of the hooligans dropped his keys at the scene. They have a Panathinaikos key ring. Remember the almost identical last attack against referees this year whilst having a meeting - the victims also described PAO insignia then. Here are the keys found at the scene today with PAO's club house on the keyring:

Another day in Elladistan.

That's horrible, man.
I hope the people who were attacked are alright.

Season finally begins this weekend. Because of the delays the season starts on round 3:

Almeida with an insane goal just now against Xanthi. Currently 3-1 with 20 minutes gone.

AEL's first game back in in the Super League for years. They were playing in their very attractive AEL arena.  They were 2-1 ahead of Iraklis and Degra (AEL keeper) made a big mistake that leader to 2-2. Mistake can be seen here at 2:56:

Kougias - the owner of AEL (lawyer who specialises is punishments - penologist and former player ) proceeded to strangle Degra in the tunnel and than terminated his contract at the same time!

But his wife is top.

Who the hell are Platias Chania?

[Faliro]

Village team from Crete - an actual village team. Crete has cities - but this team is from a village. Like most village teams in Greece, they build decent sides full of players from across the globe like most other small sides in the Super League. I have no idea what so ever how these teams do it.

Ioannis Amanatidis. What you think about this guy, Faliro?

[Faliro]

Strange guy - very emotional at times. Never believed he was a reliable striker although he had somewhat cult status a Frankfurt. He openly said that the players chosen for the Greek national team were fixed and suspicious - which everybody knows deep down. I will always remember him for one goal only:

Yap, I think the same about him.

And Zagorakis?

[Faliro]

Another interesting and strange guy. I think of fairly average ability - and before Euro 2004 - he openly doubted everything giving a few demoralizing interviews to the media. After 2004 he became more lion-like. Pesident of PAOK for a while (where his heart is) - did some TV adds for Zagori water.  Don't really have an opinion on the guy. I think he is a MEP now for ND.

Pleasant news after quiet time for AEK new stadium. By depositing the altitude study, the file of "Agia Sophia" is full and the final approval is expected by the middle of October.
