Kiko puts it in writing
“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Anorthosis, and it is not being withdrawn.

The clock did what Aris would not, and ended it. Supporters who watched the countdown will spend the next window doing it again.

Christos Kosidis signs on for more
“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Christos Kosidis and Anorthosis agree another 4 years.

“We did not lose. Some weeks that is all you get, and I would rather have the point than not.” Kostakis Kolias chose the glass-half-full version of 0‑0; the supporters left with the other one.
In brief
- Market Still no ink between Anorthosis and Ronan Coughlan
- Squad No place for Christos Kosidis in the new shape
- The dugout The form table has caught Babacar Dione
