The Treasurer of the EPO, Stergios Antoniouhosted on the show “Trial to SKAI“And he referred to the defendant of the Federation, which is affected, and the rigorous penalties imposed by the DEAB.
In detail what he said:
For the incident of Savvas Pantelides’ shop: “Another link in a chain of violence was added today. Violence is a social phenomenon, should be constantly reported and authorities should be seized”
For today’s Stoiximan Super League meeting and violence events: “We are having a hard time and going back, instead of going ahead, but because the debate today was about the incidents that the DEAB is dealing with and from the Federation, we need to see that football is targeted, and violence exists elsewhere. Groups and followers should not be punished when there are incidents caused by some and left unpunished.
Authorities must clarify the facts to attribute responsibilities. Can anyone imagine how much damage is done by some media that is uncontrollable? Some sites raise the fans. They don’t see it as football, but fan. The fanaticism that arises after an alleged injustice is transferred to the stadiums. The factors need to control their fans of their teams, but journalists should also leave the fan aside.
Factors can exclude some fans of their teams to stop all this. If one does not want to do it means that he does not want football. Justice should interfere with incidents of violence”
For the mistake made at Avgenakis ministry: “Mistakes have been made. When the tangle began to unfold in 2020, we had announced the election and the minister wanted to postpone them. Then we had to cause UEFA to intervene, we didn’t do it wrong, because we had a minister who said there was only the Greek state and today we got to a point to say no further.
There have always been reactions, perhaps the big groups have influences. However, seeing that Greek football is in danger of going out of European competitions, they were back. Now, they find that the disciplinary code can become even stricter.
Today’s discussion was the beginning to change some things. In recent years he has made football progress, with regular judges in the federation, when lawyers were in charge years ago. The “Trojans” came, but all this effort started in 2016. In regular justice when they stagnate so many cases do everything work properly and do not work properly in Greek football? We gave rights to the EPO’s self -government.
The point is that everyone has agreed that the provisions of the law that make the penalties so strict. There are also some laws that have come out in the past, with which amateur clubs have declined, as well as the issues with cameras on the stadiums. We see who is the one who throws the flare, but punishes the whole stadium and is empty. And the minister said that these sentences are unfair.
The federation’s oligarchy has led to the nonsense of some state officials and we are experiencing all this today. Communication with UEFA has to do with the fact that the EPO has been violated for years. We must escape the logic that there is a government in Greece and there is no self -government. In Greece, Mr. Avgenakis used to tell us, the government is doing. We have talked to Mr Broutsis about both the registry and the DEAB. Agreed with me that some things have to change”
For the fact that the President of the EPO has no salary and the new sports center: “The law deprived the EPO to pay a salary to the man who is leading the federation. But let’s give a pleasant note to the discussion. After many years of effort, the national team is ready to acquire its own sports center. The most likely is in Paiania. Is important”
For changes to arbitration tables: “Lanua came when the championship started. The beaten is known, but Mr Lanua has arrived late and now that he saw the referees in the summer he will be able to make changes”
For the folders with the ‘set up’ games: “The federation goes to ethics and then the justice takes over. In this case all these folders are not with evidence. When there is evidence the disciplinary code will come. There will be sanctions. There are penalties depending on the weight that everyone is divided. It is no matter what, to say, and the danger of punishing an innocent who was just involved in the match and knew nothing. They are all concerned with this issue and is condemned, but it should prove to what extent some are involved“
