Dimitris Kontos spoke to NOVA and emphasized that you answer to Panathinaikos AKTOR it is enraged with the unacceptable treatment of the Turkish authorities towards the world of “clover”who traveled to Constantinople.
The Basketball and Communication Director of the “green” KAE stressed that Panathinaikos must play as dictated by its history and value and thoroughly analyzed what happened with 200 fans, who stayed outside the field for the match against Efes, as a result of which there were incidents with the police.
What he said in detail:
“To begin with, it is a very difficult night. She is one bad night for Panathinaikos. It is unacceptable. We have to find a way to play as the history and value of this team dictates. But, it is a night that hurts all of us and of course the world of our team. Not only those who watched the game from Athens and Greece, but also those who spent a very difficult night here in Istanbul.
I want to say something, which I don’t know how to explain. I feel ashamed of what happened here. There are Greeks who purchased tickets legally, normally. In fact, we were in contact with Efes and secured tickets. Of the tickets we secured, half of them did not enter the stadium, under the pretext that the police did not let them. I don’t know if it’s the fault of the police or Efes. We don’t care who is to blame, we care how people were left out.
There were other Greeks, around 200, who had purchased legal tickets, normally and at the entrance they were not allowed to enter the stadium. Yes, there were some minor episodes. A Greek is in the hospital. Not seriously, from what we learn.
In any case, we feel the wrath of the world and stand with thembut above all we cannot explain how it is possible to get official tickets and people not enter the stadium. It is something unacceptable. From Panathinaikos we will do everything we can to find the cause and who is to blame, because the world follows, it doesn’t cause the slightest thing. We really feel very bad about what happened. We are outraged, and so is the world, who have every right to be outraged about everything.
We are contacting all agencies, trying to find a solution. We demand an explanation, but at the end of the day people have suffered a huge inconveniencewhich is not compensated. Even if they get their money back, this thing is not happening. It is something out of reality, out of logic and along with the image of the team, which was the one that tied the cake».
