A few hours before another home game, in this case against Aris, Panathinaikos issued a statement through which it gave the necessary instructions to the “clover” world.
The relevant announcement of PAE Panathinaikos in detail:
“The presence of our fans in the stands of Leoforos in tonight’s game (9 p.m.) of our Panathinaikos against Aris should be appropriate, so that the team is not deprived of the possibility of the fans’ presence in the next decisive matches – for achieving our goals- games, because someone acted recklessly. In order to protect our headquarters, everyone’s cooperation is necessary.
We remind everyone that the new law is particularly strict, providing for “heavy” penalties, immediately applicable, which go as far as re-banning fans from entering the stadium.
Tonight on the Boulevard it is strictly forbidden to light – and of course throw – torches, firecrackers, smoke generators, flares and all kinds of sparklers. The throwing of bottles and objects, the use of lasers, banners with political and abusive messages are also prohibited. Even a single incident is enough to close the stadium again at the very next home game.
With the new law, any sports fan who does not have a registered ticket not only cannot enter the stadium, but is also fined 500 euros by the Police. During the identity check, in case a sports fan is found with a ticket in another name, both the holder and the beneficiary will be fined ten times the value of the respective ticket, a penalty of exclusion from the stadiums will be imposed, while the PAE will be punished by closing the door , where the violation occurred.
There will be six (6) pre-check points at the stadium to check tickets and ID.
In detail, the pre-checks are as follows:
Pre-check 1
Streets: Armatolon and Klefton & Panathinaikos
Pre-check 2
Streets: Filimonos & Tsocha
Pre-check 3
Streets: Tsocha & P. ​​Kyriakou (on Tsocha)
Pre-check 4
Streets: P. Kyriakou & Tsocha (on P. Kyriakou)
Pre-check 5
Streets: P. Kyriakou & L. Alexandras
Pre-check 6
Streets: Panathinaikou & L. Alexandras
Particularly:
Gate 13-14 ticket holders will pass through Pre-Checks 1 & 6 only.
Ticket holders of gates 8-9-10-11-12 will go through Pre-Checks 2 & 3.
Gate 6-7 ticket holders will go through Pre-Checks 4 & 5.
Regarding gates 1-2-3-3B-5, the control of the fans will be done exclusively at the gates.
The control of fans at the pre-check points does not invalidate the control at the gate entrances.
By decision of the Greek government, the physical control of the fans at the pre-checks and upon entering the gates of the stadium will now be carried out by the Greek Police and will be thorough and particularly strict.
We support our Panathinaikos only with our voice!».
