The recent photos of Ivan Savvidis open carrying in a football match between PAOK and AEK confirms my thoughts and suspicions about the world of footbal in Greece. There are teams own by multimillionairs, without much popular support and without people
buying tickets and attending live football games, where do they find all those millions to buy new players from other teams and bring famous players from abroad? What could possibly those teams provide to their wealthy owners?
I cant imagine any serious businesman buying a football team or any sports team for that matter without expecting some kind of return. Either monetary, or perhaps leverage, or perhaps a hooligan army to threaten the adversaries and the elceted government, perhaps winning money from betting.
So whatever hidden reasons they have to own sports teams, whatever filth is hidden under the carpet, they've become so arrogant, that they don't even try to hide anymore. They don't even try to pretend they are law abidding citizens. And now they walk around open carying guns in a country where in order to own a gun you must prove (somehow) that you have a legitimate reason and fear for life to have one.
As a rich businessman I can understand his need to have a gun and bodyguards. But in the football field, during a game? It is a dangerous place I admit, with hooligans causing hell during many games. But open carrying a gun?
Those immoral people and his friends and media outlets and the people they can influence or perhaps even blackmail have brought Greece in the verge of economic distaster. In the loving hands of IMF and EU monetary organisations.
And then we get Turkey as a wolf and FYROM and Albania as hyenas smelling blood and a wounded animal easy pray to their survival of the strongest game. The P.O.S.es.
