Reports in Greece have suggested that Olympiakos will participate in a tournament hosted by Valencia at Mestalla from August 12 - 14. Sampdoria or Udinese were also put forth as potential participants. Have there been similar reports in Spain? Can anyone confirm whether or not (1) a tournament is certain to take place, and (2) who will be the other participating clubs?
Yes it's happening. Here are the details: Viernes 12 de agosto – Trofeo Naranja. Primera Jornada. Valencia CF - Olympiacos. 22:00 horas. Sábado 13 de agosto – Trofeo Naranja Segunda Jornada. Udinese - Olympiacos. 20:00 horas. Domingo 14 de agosto – Trofeo Naranja. Tercera Jornada. Valencia CF - Udinsese. 22:00 horas
Welcome to the board. I sat near GolGran when I went to Valencia to see VCF against Betis in the last game of the season when they won the league in 01-02. Great time.
I'm afraid the Gol Gran penya is going through a few problems at the moment. A group of 35 or so of the most active members have decided to move up to the top tier just in front of the scoreboard leaving our little corner severly weakened...
It's usually politics but in our case it was a group of dedicated fans becoming exasperated at the decline in Gol Gran and decided to make a new start elsewhere in the ground. I'd have preferred it if they'd stayed and we patched up our differences but there you go. Here's a photo of the good old days! http://www.golgran.net/fotos/details.php?image_id=29
