Think it was a good draw ..... I am sure our Partizan brothers are gonna be quite happy if we beat Dinamo ;-)

This is a problem. UEFA has no problem punishing both teams... It was a rather good draw. PAOK can qualify from this group as long as it plays well.

Is there any new for the trip to Brugge? the cost of it? When we gonna know for sure?

[Petros - PAOK]

With 4 points in the first two matches, we 'll qualify for sure.

After the drawback of the last 5 years we are "back to business".

(villareal seems to be the best team of the group but nothing in yellow colour survives PAOK)

we are doing well at the moment. All we have to do now is prove to Dinamo we are the boss. But i think we really have a shot at topping this group despite the loss in Spain. Great effort for the lads to lose 1-0 with a caretaker coach. So far he is undefeated in Greece with 3 wins and 1 loss in Europe. Maybe if we kept Dermitzakis for Europe games and Xamos for Greece
