A hazy landscape, slow rates, and ominous predictions of transcriptional activity

Impressively shocked by the way Cyprus honored the memory of Nassos Konstantinos, passionate PAOK player and victim of fan violence. The message he broadcast exposed “the entire PAOK organization” and some representatives of the city’s white and black information (and not only).

Right now, anyone can say they “don’t move a card,” in terms of transfers, without being misunderstood. So, out of respect for “public opinion” about it, with a few reservations, we have to agree. These reservations can be mobilized not on the basis of positive data, but on the basis of optimistic expectations that can be based on justifications such as “It is still early days” or “Intentions are usually registered at this stage and the first investigations are made”. Confused things you’ll tell me.

Unfortunately, I’ll agree with you, because I’m afraid you’ll have to do that too, with a little look at the pool of rolling scenarios involving everyone (young and old) in the Super League region. I would also add … “Europeans and non-Europeans”, to give a dimension of interest to the former, with what that means. Obviously, the need for support is of a different scope and magnitude.

Not everyone has the same gaps and corresponding weaknesses. Some need two to three additions and some need more than that. Let me at this point open a long bow and single out the – stark – case of PAOK, whose roster was ruined by miserable management of unsuitable and incompetent people a tragic – if not nightmarish – picture. In this case, things are considered and are infinitely more difficult.

How those who took responsibility will succeed in carrying out such a critical mission is something no one can predict. There is a promise that six transfers will be made in the first stage and then gradually the required number, so that the whole team will be able to fulfill all the obligations of the new season. At the moment and without excluding that some premeditated moves with specific goals are underway, we do not see any results.

But the same thing is happening with many other Super League teams. Olympiacos without a coach still sees top-flight players leave. Panathinaikos counts the leader’s loss and struggles to cover it up with the Czech Linger. To Ares, who was surprised to start with sales and not new additions, for no reason. The category of people involved does not include the weak AEK, whose roster remains impressive, with no departures affected and Melisanidis determined to keep fighting. He had already begun his efforts to preserve the highly regarded Pineda, and to meet his costly release clause.

Back to PAOK, all that has been heard so far is contact – perhaps even prior agreement – with Krmenchik (photo). But with the explanation, after fan feedback, that if it is acquired, it will come a second time. No more leaks of Pelkas, Stavillidis and Gabiandini cases.

For whom there will be obvious difficulties, with whose representatives they wish to bid with a second candidate. Here they may have to “take a stand” and prove their love for the team that made them a footballer, PAOK players. Summing up, we can say that the landscape on the transfer front, as well as the rates at which the group’s representatives move, prevent a safe prediction of optimistic (?) results.

Thick red bulb

The “message” that came from Cyprus to “the entire PAOK organization” and to specific representatives of the black and white reportage (and not only) is harsh. The President of the Republic of Cyprus inaugurated the Training Center in Paphos named after Nassos Konstantino. The forgotten tragic victim of fan violence and an ardent fan of PAOK.

I will not go into details. You all know more or less what happened at this very important ceremony. Nasos’s father’s statements were shocking. I think you heard them on “Metropolis 95.5” the day before yesterday in the presentation edited by Kostas Petrotos and Vasilis Vlachopoulos and read them the next day, in the related report of the Metrosport newspaper. “I seek justice, not revenge,” declared the unfortunate father, emphasizing the common tragic fate of his son with Alki.

Nassau has been described as almost forgotten, because it was so characteristically absent for some time from a select group of information representatives, as if it were a random and inconsequential incident, which was sometimes mentioned in specific anniversary reports. Exposed to an absolute degree and “the whole organization” not caring to shed light on the issue (careful not to exploit it) as much, when and how it should. He had to keep the flame of Nassus’ memory unextinguished. What can he do? Many important things that the history of PAOK and also the younger generations of PAOK fans entail.

Note: “Vasilo wants to hide, but joy will not allow her.” In the pre-post of PAOK’s captain of the year, where 14 players who received the honorary title were mentioned, the photo released was of fellow player Brandon! Of course, the results proved that 8 other players advanced ahead of him (Constantilias, Kotarski, Engasson, Nari, Augusto, Tyson, Zivkovic, Kolerakis). Perhaps the file did not contain anyone’s photo to choose the venerable Spanish striker.
