Pardon my English - I'm a Liverpool supporter in Greece for more than 35 years. I'm also a passionate PAOK fan.
Please let me me explain to fellow Liverpool supporters some things that you might never heard before.
I'm watching for a year now, the connection that is trying to built between Liverpool and olympiakos and I really cannot explain it.
For me Liverpool stands for an honest, hard working team coming from a city that has nothing to do with London or Manchester were all the decisions are taken for Premier League. All these dark powers that boost either man u or chelsea or city or arsenal. Liverpool is fighting all alone against all these "favourable" teams.
That's exactly is PAOK in Greece. The only team outside of Athens (capital of Greece) that ever won league cups and titles. All the other teams are from Athens. Can you imagine it. 60 years only Athens teams!!!
41 of these titles have won by any means from olympiakos. It's widely known that most of these cups were won by tricks, help of referries, control of football federation, political intervention etc. etc.
At least 3 ex presidents of olympiakos are been held in prison for financial crimes.
Olympiakos will finish this year with some remarkable records:
- Three weeks ago took his first red card for 2 and a half years.
- Two weeks ago an opponent gain a penalty against olympikaos (first penalty since 2012).
- At least 10 matches ended with one or two opponents players expelled.
- At least 20 players belong to Olympiakos and play as loans in opponents teams in greek league (imagine that)
- At least 4 presidents of Greece football league have complained against olympiakos mafia ways and decided to create a new clean and honest football league withtout these gangsters.
And the worst thing is that this team, enters every year without challenging games in champions league rounds and its result are very very poor.
This is its first time that has a chance against man u (which is the worst man u since 1980).
Please allow me for the first and only time to support manu u in this particular game.
Can you see something common with this team, as Liverpool fans?.
Here in Greece we call it Public team, because at least two times, the government payed its debts and taxes and built them a new stadium for free.
I beg you to spread these news and protect our team (Liverpool) from this misconception and lack of information.
Liverpool for us who live with the dream of visiting KOP for one time, is sacred team and represents courage, passion, respect and honesty.
Please support PAOK team and if you ever visit our stadium in Thessaloniki (Toumba) you will see many of our supporters wore Liverpool shirts.
FYI PAOK has eliminated both arsenal and Tottenham in UEFA cup.
Thank you for your time. And maybe this is our year to celebrate a Premier's League Cup.
