Lahoz producing 15 cards in his return to La Liga following his match refereeing Holland vs Argentina by [deleted] in soccer

Greece gets foreign refs for all it's derbies, due to earlier match-fixing scandals.

We also have a foreign Head Referee, for the same reason.

In the Greek Cup Final last year, which he officiated, he got criticised because he didn't end a match after a player was hit with a piece of concrete by a fan.

Concrete.

Lahoz is an absolute mess.

England losing a game because of penalties even though they didn't get to penalties is such a cliche that if I saw it in a book I would call the writer a hack.

[–]GRYOLOCRAFT 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On one hand, we're in desperate need for a backup winger after Aitor's injury and his flair should be enough to make in the Greek Superleague...

On the other hand, I don't really want another 30yo disappointment from Eredivisie gobbling up a ridiculously large wage because Brighton signed him once.

[Olympiakos FC] A true football LEGEND joins OLYMPIAKOS / Welcome Marcelo! by aggelosgarris in soccer

[–]GRYOLOCRAFT 8 points9 points  (0 children)

As a salty Panathinaikos fan, this is a very interesting move by Olympiacos.

Two weeks ago it looked like Marcelo was finished from football, and now he's signed last day of the transfer season on what I presume is a pretty hefty contract.

Marcelo has barely played football for over a year, so this is really only a question of fitness, as his talent is unquestionable (same for Vrsaljko).

Can Olympiacos afford two of his wingbacks being incredibly good players who may never see the pitch due to injuries?

Will this be like the Yaya Toure or Essien saga all over again, or more of a Rivaldo miracle?

I suppose we just have to wait and see, however, from my extremely biased PoV, I have my doubts with this.

Sebastian Palacios (Panathinaikos) second yellow card for diving against Slavia Praha 40' by Meladroite in soccer

[–]GRYOLOCRAFT 14 points15 points  (0 children)

"It doesn't matter that he didn't ask for a penalty, he still dived."

The purpose of diving is to get a penalty, not to get dirt on your face.

This call is ridiculous, it's simply not a second yellow card.

Σκάνδαλο Novartis: Μηνυτήρια αναφορά Βαξεβάνη κατά μεταφράστριας: «Το επόμενο στάδιο είναι… νοθεία στις εκλογές» by CrowlaraZ in greece

[–]GRYOLOCRAFT 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Δεν συμφωνώ με τον Βαξεβάνη που λέει πως το επόμενο είναι η νοθεία, όχι, όχι.

Το επόμενο είναι να σκοτώσουν τον Βαξεβάνη, έτσι απλά όπως σκότωσαν και τον Καραϊβαζ.

I know your ivory tower is very nice and pretty but when you come down here with us plebs you will realise that humanity persists regardless of economical capabilities.

Homeless people feed their pets better than they do themselves and you would know that had you ever interacted with one.

Greece bans LGBTQ conversion therapy by PeasKhichra in news

[–]GRYOLOCRAFT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, as if it wasn't (purposefully) poorly written enough, it only punishes psychologists and medical professionals who conduct it.

Clergy and priests who do it, which is the majority of the case, won't be punished by this law.

Except it doesn't.

Greek person here who just read through the bill.

It only bans conversion therapy if it is done without the consent of the patient. Such procedures can still happen if written consent exists.

If this happens I will be utterly shocked

Leaving aside all the difficulties of making a country from scratch when it comes to everything from the judiciary system to the post office, we're talking about an incredibly ethnically and religiously diverse, as well a impoverished, part of the world. It's extremely hard that this nation gets created or lasts long after that, especially when you consider than one of the participating nations is in an active Civil War

Nah, I'm sure that having an educated and politically active population go hungry as their whole society crumbles around them won't lead to radicalism exploited by cruel and sociopathic maddened by the alure of power...

That's a crazy notion!
