Re: GREECE 2015

how on earth are they not eligible to take part? They managed it for 2014.

edit: even if they're not eligible. I'm sure the ebu will do some slight rules altering for the time being to accommodate Greek participation.

That is basically what they did this year

They might as well get rid of the rule and tell broadcasters to do whatever they like.

Re: GREECE 2015

I've just read that Greece won't take part. Someone on polish forum about ESC gave a link to MTV Greece, here, and it's because of the broadcaster as stated few post back

It should be 'shame' in my previous post. Sorry for my error!

Re: GREECE 2015

I don't believe that Greece will withdraw from ESC! :?

Re: GREECE 2015

I think it's certainly possible. EBU didn't accept NERIT's bid to join them and the position for Greece appears has vacant. So unless they bend the rules and allow an exception, Greece is sadly not taking part this year.

Re: GREECE 2015

Let's just wait a few more weeks... Greece is one country which always found the ways & means to participate in spite of all the financial troubles... so I'm not giving up hopes yet! Hellas, don't let me down!

Re: GREECE 2015

There is no ESC without Greece, for me

Re: GREECE 2015

Eurovision has lived without Italy,without Turkey,without Bosnia,without Serbia,without Portugal.
If Greece wont be in Vienna, ESC will still be there !

Re: GREECE 2015

I'm sure that Greece will participate in Vienna.

Re: GREECE 2015

Finger crossed that Greece will take part.

Re: GREECE 2015

Οκ we have some official news from our broadcaster NERIT.
They have just had a press release!
They say at this moment Greece can NOT participate in ESC 2015, because NERIT is still NOT a member of EBU.
BUT,
NERIT has applied to be a member,
and EBU will see this issue at December.

Re: GREECE 2015

But what is going on with the deadline set for October, 10th. What's even more important - have they applied until yesterday, because now it seems they cannot even apply as they are not EBU member? Because December is far too late and NERIT could take part in 2016 at the earliest (in case they are accepted in December 2014).

oh dear. So not too good then. Is there an official article/news thing on this? Also don't they need to be a member to apply?

They say that EBU will decide about this issue in December (whether they will allow us to take part or not).
