New statements against the chief referee Mark Clattenberg he did Praxitelis Zachariadis!

The former referee in Super League 1 told ERT3’s “World of Sports” that Clattenberg did not show respect for his face, while he wondered why a Greek referee should not enter a derby!

«I could not accept my relegation to Super League 2“, Said initially Mr. Zachariadis.

«I felt that Clattenberg he did not respect me, I stated in my letter and leftSaid Praxitelis Zachariadis. «Everyone has their own story in the field and everyone decides for themselves what to do“, Added the former referee of the Super League.

Whether the presence of foreign referees has contributed to reliability of Greek football, Mr. Zachariadis answered: «They have come elite referees and indeed they have proved that they are among the top, but referees have also come from inferior countries from Greece, without naming them, who have nothing more than the Greek referee. Beyond that, however, it is not just the refereeing piece that will improve football.

As time goes by foreign referees come, we see dozens, all of whom are foreigners. We constantly bring in foreign coaches. We need to look at the problem as a whole. The arbitration understand that intrigues. I admit I have made several mistakes too. In so many years of career, it makes sense to make mistakes, but the mistakes of the referee are not easily accepted, while the mistakes of the defender, the goalkeeper, the coach are easily accepted “.

Praxitelis Zachariadis also commented on the position of the president of the EPO, Panagiotis Dimitriou, two days ago that he is in favor of the presence of foreign leadership in KED, regardless of person for at least two years.

«I will agree with this view. But the question is “did we come to improve the Greek arbitration? Did we get Greek referees? “What have we done all these years?” We do not play important games here. At some point, the foreigners will leave, a Greek will take over.“, He said and added:”Are we convinced to put a Greek referee in a derby? Why not dare it slowly? So many years have passed. There we have to see».
