„Big“ Evangelos: „Hey! Did you spill my pint?“

(Proceeds to get President of FC Barcelona in a head-lock)

FFS, hasn't Mazza spent a significant amount of time in our Country? It's meant to be the obligatory glassing in the face, not a headlock!

Randomly on my Youtube feed tonight. Interview about shipping for the vast majority of it that took place 4 days ago. Its well worth a watch in my opinion to see how he talks about his operations in his world, surrounded by his peers.

He does not care a jot about the Strait of Hormuz and has no plans to "take risks" to make a little profit. The whole theme of the interview is very much of a much more cautious thinker than the renegade persona.

The last 5 minutes are about football. On MGW not being picked for England, he believes its a good thing because he has played too many games this season and he needs a long rest to be ready for next season. It is Englands loss to not include their best performing number 10.

On what he has learned from the football world or the shipping world that he could cross over into each other.......this is an answer i winced at - its most important for his son, Miltadis, because he has done and is doing a lot of negotiation for Nottingham Forest and this will prepare him for the shipping industry, its not easy to do what his son is doing, but he is doing it well.

Last moments were the speaker telling the Big Man that he was an excited Coventry City fan and asked him

Are you looking forward to playing Coventry City next season? - *shrugs* "Uh i look forward to face every team"

Do you know Doug King? "No"

Oh he is a commodities trader...."Okay" .....you should get in touch "Thats good, so what is the conclusion?"

Are you happy that, are you excited about playing Coventry City next season?

"Very excited but i think we need to finalise our discussion on shipping?"

Entire interview with the demeanour of a man who owns the place he's talking to.

As long as you end up with the right one at the end of it, it means naff all.

I feel we have, this is the appointment we have been waiting for in my opinion.

And Glasner will have enough money available to shape the squad how he wants it.

We know only EM can pull this sort of appointment off, much to the incoming bafflement of the footballing world.

Wasn't just a normal fan though, the chap's the nephew of the prime minister and has been involved in some dodgy phone tapping shit which Marinakis didn't like.

Big Vangelis was in downtown Piraeus today. He presented the future Karaiskakis Stadium expansion in 3D, and even made a short speech, in the Municipal Theatre. The entire Olympiakos team was in attendance, as well as other celebrities, including the city Mayor (it's basically Big Vange himself, but he can't because he owns Oly, so he's placed an actual sort-of politician as a frontperson) and the US ambassador for some reason. The stadium looks fab, and the presentation was quite fancy - the theatre is like a mini opera theatre and quite lovely inside, and our city's nicest-looking building. Hopefully, a similar presentation ceremony for the WFCG will take place in Nottingham soon. :cool:

I'd stop by and chat to him about all things Forest, but I got to the city centre an hour late and he'd left. :ROFLMAO:
 

"...in the top one"

terms and conditions apply...
I think we are lucky to have him in our corner (and frankly there is no other owner I would rather have....)

Athletic article about EA's move to City is a testiment to EM and frankly how he takes no shit.....!

"....City had been wary that dealing with Marinakis could be tricky, and after the initial discussions with Al Mubarak, the Forest owner asked for more money than had been discussed."

"....With Marinakis playing what one source with knowledge of the negotiations described as “an incredible game of chess”"

"Buster Marinakis and his unfeasibly large testicles".

The bloke is an absolute madman, with nerves of steel. Forest are damn lucky to have him.
