We welcome Thomas Farines back onto the podcast to give us his tips for groundhopping in Greece. From incredible tifos to gun-toting owners, we get the lowdown on the often crazy world of Greek football.

We look at the Athenian giants, the Thessaloniki clubs, plus island-hop around some of the country’s smaller clubs. Plus, we discuss Greece’s surprise 2004 European Championship win. Just where did that come from?

We release a new podcast every Monday, so be sure to subscribe on your preferred podcast platform. We’re on iTunes, Spotify, Stitcher, Player.FM and Anchor. Look for us in Google Podcasts too. We’d really appreciate a rating or view if you like what we’re doing as it helps others discover our podcast.
