Football

I am a football supporter and have enjoyed football since I was five. I used to play badly when I was young (right back) but nowadays I respect football far too much to play it.

Given my dual nationality and split personality, I support two teams :

Panathinaikos in Athens

European finalists 1970-71, Semi-Finalists 1996. Both times lost to Ajax: 2-0 in the final at Wembley in 1971 and 2-0 also on goal difference in the semis: we beat them in Amsterdam 1-0 and they beat us 3-0 in Athens. Bastards).

Note that the link above is only to the Football Club. In common with all Greek Clubs they have a Basketball team, a Volleyball team and a Water Polo team with the same name. The Basketball team is even more successful than the Football team - 1996 European Champions!

Tottenham Hotspur in London. This is unfortunate for someone who lives a stone's throw away from Arsenal's football ground.
