Return To PAOK FC
Thus, Koudas rejoined PAOK in 1968, where he would spend the rest of his career. He gradually became the leader and captain of the legendary 70's squad created by Pantelakis, built on young Greek talents like Damanakis, Iosifidis, Terzanidis, Apostolidis, Gounaris, Sarafis, Dimopoulos and others. During that period, he celebrated the winning of two Greek Cups, in 1972 and 1974, and one Greek Championship, in 1976. He finally retired in 1984, at age 38.
Koudas holds the record for the most appearances with PAOK, appearing in 607 matches, 504 of which in the Greek 1st Division, spanning almost 21 seasons.

Famous quotes containing the words return to and/or return:
“In my walks I would fain return to my senses.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Each work of art excludes the world, concentrates attention on itself. For the time it is the only thing worth doing—to do just that; be it a sonnet, a statue, a landscape, an outline head of Caesar, or an oration. Presently we return to the sight of another that globes itself into a whole as did the first, for example, a beautiful garden; and nothing seems worth doing in life but laying out a garden.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
