In detail, the Ionian announcement:
“Once again, we are forced to deal with the inability of referees to operate 50-50 in games of such importance.
At a time when KED is trying for the best, the relevant bodies are inferior to the circumstances, thus degrading the product that the association is trying to promote.
First of all, as PAE Ionikos, we would like to publicly congratulate the footballers of our team, who gave their soul and body on the field, fighting for the shirt and the history of the club.
However, a day of celebration for the division and Greek football was once again marred by refereeing errors by Christos Vergetis, which resulted in the alteration of the result of the match.
Initially in the 8′, the football player of Athens Kallithea is penalized with a yellow card and not a straight red for a very dangerous marking on the football player of our team.
In the 12′ there is an obvious hand of the football player of Athens Kallithea in the area.
Finally, in the phase of the goal conceded by our team, the scorer of the opposing team is exposed and in the wrong position the supervisor does not show offside and consequently the referee shows a cross.
PAE Ionikos and the management of the club will not allow the merciless war that the club is accepting. We are against anyone who tries to harm the efforts of our footballers. We will fight to the end against everyone, to fulfill our goal.
We ask for equal treatment for everyone from now on. Six matches remain – finals. Let us get what we deserve.
We present visual material from the refereeing errors in the game against Athens Kallithea hoping that we are not in the same project as spectators…»
