Nikologiannis: “This is why Panathinaikos differs from other teams”

Regarding the positions of Panathinaikos in the Super League teleconference, through Yannis Alafouzou, the agreement but with objections to the change of date in the derby with AEK and the proposal of the owner of PAE for administrative control at EPO which was accepted unanimously spoke o Tasos Nikologiannis to bwinSPORT FM.

Initially, Nikologiannis referred to today’s video conference of the League: “There was today’s Super League teleconference. There Panathinaikos, through Yiannis Alafouzou, accepted AEK’s request to change the date of the derby, recalling the behavior of other teams in the past. It means that last year, for a much more serious reason in the last championship, AEK moved heaven and earth and refused to have a substantial transfer of the derby with Olympiakos due to covid cases. Because Panathinaikos reacted last year, it would be inconsistent if they refused today. It is true to what it stands for and is different from other groups. In any case, even if the derby reacted it would change the day. Regarding the refereeing, the position of Panathinaikos through Yannis Alafouzou is to come from a top team and not Montenegro. This report was made about Dabanovic.”

Nikologiannis then referred to Alafouzou’s proposal for administrative control at the EPO, which was accepted by all: “When the discussion about Klandeberg took place, Mr. Alafouzos intervened and asked for administrative control in the EPO, which was decided by the Super League.”

Also, the experienced reporter mentioned the training and the fact that Djuricic, Aitor and Jedvai have increased their pace. “The chances are in their favor for the match with Panaitolikos”, he emphasized, while underlining that there is a sold out for the derby with AEK.
