You can't say it's not spectacular.

Are the green bombs for Panathaniakos and the red ones for Olympiacos?

The green, white and gold - second from bottom - would go down well at Celtic Park.

Heya cmg.

No they are all Gate 13, away fans have been banned among the big clubs for many years now. No Olympiacos fans has stepped foot in that hole for years and years. The only time you see the fans at the same game is in cup final games, semi finals etc... where they play in the massive OAKA and there is like 200 seats between fans for security..

Olympiacos, PAOK, AEK and Aris make spectacular atmospheres...

Here is Aris welcoming Boca:

However usually, Aris also have yellow smoke bombs..



At Olympiacos you see more red... PAOK more white flares etc...

Olympiacos:





Do Greek clubs have a Health and Safety Department?

Mmmm. .

Hell knows how it happened but it seems the PAO representative did have his lip split open by a Marikanis guard when the Super League meeting turned into an actual fight... I saw no blood however in the pictures - just him holding his lip and Olympiacos has accused Alafouzes of being a fantasist and making up the whole thing.. Olympiacos states the meeting got heated verbally and Konstantinou went for Marinakis and Marinakis' body guards did their job and restrained him so the boss was unhurt. The image of OFI and the former great Greek European Golden Boot winner Nikos Machlas shouting at PAO that they are lying and trying to kill OFI and backing up.agreeing with Marinakis is hilarious. OFI used to be owned by PAO, now they are free of that corruption and fighting for survival - still trying to get the minus 10 points removed.

Highly amusingly..the Greek Super League as you know is suspended, but in a somewhat rare move, the other leagues were allowed to continue.. Amusing because this is what happened in the Greek second division today.. Lamia vs Karditsa...

















Here is the story, apparently.... a Karditsa fan threw a chair.. (how there are any chairs left attached to any concrete in any Greek second division stadia is a miracle in itself..but that is a another matter..) the chair landed right on a policeman's head. That 'broke the tension' as the Greeks would say.. and to mention another very very common Greek expression, ''a lot of wood was ate..(fighting)''

Two days before at Larissa's old Alkazaar stadium...Larissa vs Olympiakos Volos... the game was stopped for 20 minutes for some redecoration from fans..
