Oh my.... What an unbelievable torture it can be, after a night like this, to have to get up really early, cos u ve got to be in court 
. I guess i maybe the only one in Greece who' ll stay in tonight (or maybe not? ;) .
for Otto's Greek boys !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just remind me which non-Greek was talking up the Greeks right from the start, particularly Dellas ?
after erm... lets say quite a few drinks I can still answer that question:
'twas you Tim, 'twas you
see?!?! I'm not drunk yet... time to drink some more:p
You may not know this, but I live very much nearby a large greek community and when I came back from work today, I found myself stuck in the middle of a huge outburst of greek fans parading the streets in their cars with huge Greece flags and letting the world know they had HORNS !
When I see a spectacle like this one, it really gives me a weird impression about the human being. All of this because of football ? Hahaha! We're a very strange breed indeed.
Sebsy...that's why footie is such a beautiful game...it evokes more emotion than any other sport I can think of...I've seen plenty of world championships living here in Dallas...the Cowboys with their 5 in our version of football...and the Stars in 99...but they didn't evoke near the hysteria that I felt in London...and that was just for a Group Stage match!!!
I wasn't fully won over until I was in Trafalgar Square after the English beat the Argies in the World Cup...
but since then...I've been hooked...and it just keeps getting more intense...oh well...I've said enough!!!

Some statistics concerning Dellas' carrer so far:
- 1998: Aris Thessaloniki FC sells him to Sheffield Utd almost for free.
- 2000: Sheffield United dont renew his contract, AEK Athens convience him to sign.
- 2002: AEK release the player after he refuses to transfer to another minor greek team. He signs to Roma FC instead.
All this time, some Greek "expirienced" sport journalists, love to make fun of him callin him "scarecrow", "truck" "lumberjack" etc
.
Tim, its cetain ure eyes "watch more ball" (another greek football expression) than some profesional ppl i know .... 
Well done to Greece.
Still fucked off though - cos the bastards recked my plans of doing well in the fantasy football league. I had 8 Czech's in ma bastard team
That leaves me with just one player in the final with no transfers left

Didn't have quite the same faith in them last night though, according to your fantasy team?!

More a case of number of transfers left.....tried to organise it so I could squeeze two games out of players, a multi-squad rotation. Can't do a lot about teams losing !The Roonarmy team of mine which started very late has got the right idea though !
