Title: More problems in Greek soccer...

A football match between two local teams on the Greek island of Crete is brought to a halt after a stubborn billy-goat refuses to leave the pitch. The goat stands in front of the goalkeeper and is led off the pitch by a referee, only to return a few minutes later. After several disruptions, a spectator drags the goat away by its horns, allowing the game to resume

Triffic vid!  Could see why the goat wouldn't leave the pitch - no red card from the ref!  The goat looked like he could have made quite a good goalie, too. 

That must be one of the most spectacular locations for a footie pitch I've ever seen.  Now it's out on YouTube I expect there'll be villas built on it next year.

No butts about it, Tony!

Come to think of it, there is (...or was) a pitch on the outskirts of Kefalos hill village on Kos that has (/had) spectacular views and the pitch at Karavomilos is sitting pretty, too.
