THE Dimitris Giannakopoulos reacted angrily to his summons by the Ethics Committee of the EEC for defaming the sport. The strong man of KAE Panathinaikos AKTOR accused the federation of not showing similar sensitivity to actions or the tolerance of KAE Olympiacos, while… included Giorgos Bartzokas. “It seems clear that you have been working with me for two years and I am telling you directly that we are opposite“, he concluded in his message against the president of the EEC, Vangelis Lioliou.
“To understand what EEC is all about, they call me for defamation of the sport because I publicly complained about the officiating Tsaruha and Pitsilka who have repeatedly ripped us off non-stop, continuously and ostentatiously but they are not called for mistakes continuously every year in every game from anyone. Mr. Bartzokas, who I don’t know how many times has called Christ and the Virgin Mary on public television, on the bench where players, coaches, referees, all of Greece are listening, no one has called him for defaming the sport. In SEF Ï€@@@tis and Ï€@@@kia Giannakopoulos, ψ@@a from Ï€@@@a Giannakopoulos that no one has stood up to give a nod to stop, there is no defamation there either.
Nor is it a defamation of all these explosive, how shall I say, actions of Mr. Barzokas on the bench, that Rowan Atkinson, Mr. Bean would be jealous of them doing all that he gets electrocuted all the time, it’s not a discredit to the sport. Arrogance and the way he talks about opponents, opposing teams, etc., is not a defamation of the sport. And it is a defamation of the sport myself, who invest my money, my energy, my gray matter, in having a Panathinaikos at the level it is , with stars on the field, the bench. That I have succeeded against the organized face to face and I have come against many times. I have tried to do everything I can and I can’t. Every mistake I’ve made in the past I’ve come out and apologized 100 times acknowledging my mistake and being called out for bringing the sport into disrepute. Wow, what a bunch of jerks you are.
Advertising the sport, gentlemen and ladies in the EEC, is to distort championships that the whole of Greece sees through the naked eye, through the television. Advertising is to have coaches who behave like Mr. Bartzokas. It is a disgrace to the sport to have presidents of opposing teams who, when they curse their counterparts on the field, all they do is blow the whistle indifferently. I don’t want to enter into the thought that they might be asking for them to be done. All this is not defamation, I am, never mind, ordinary. How many years have you all been boring, what have you achieved, a hole in the water.
And to close it, I will tell you publicly, Mr. Liolio. I thought that all this anger about me and Panathinaikos is because you had obviously mistakenly associated me with the previous situation of the EEC and Mr. Vasilakopoulos. And the fact that I didn’t think you were the best for basketball, I thought other candidates were the best. And I really thought you had nothing else, nor communicating vessels down to Piraeus. And what have I done, for two years now everything you ask. For the national team? Well I would do that anyway. I have shown you in a thousand ways that I have nothing. I want good basketball and it’s enough that you don’t play with my investment and the sweat of the athletes. It seems clear that you have been working with me for two years and I am telling you directly that we are opposite».
