Chastening afternoon for Kifisia
A 1‑4 beating by Aris Thessaloniki was the sort of result that empties a stadium long before the final whistle.

Anger at Kifisia spills outside the ground
It has stopped being a mood in the stands and started being something organised. Boards can ignore a bad atmosphere for a long time; they cannot ignore this stage of it for very long at all.

Home is on Ian Custódio's mind
“Some mornings you wake up and you are still a long way from everything you know.” It is not the football and it never was; Kifisia are dealing with a man who wants a different country.

Tempers go at Kifisia
Jorge Pombo was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Real improvement from Maycol Infante at Kifisia
Form comes and goes; this has not gone. Maycol Infante is 22, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.

A late step up for Giorgos Agapakis
At 25 the improving is meant to be over. It is not: 3 points better than the mark taken at the start of the year, which is the sort of thing that happens to players who take the boring parts of the job seriously.

One of our own: Ioannis Vrousai joins the Kifisia first team
Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Ioannis Vrousai is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

Grigorios Androutsos steps up from the Kifisia academy
There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Grigorios Androutsos has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.
