Panathinaikos Gate 13 ultras rally fans for protest against club president Alafouzos

May 8 – The Gate 13 ultras of Greek giant Panathinaikos, the club’s largest supporters group, have organised a protest rally calling for the resignation of president Giannis Alafouzos  after 12 years in power.

The rally will take place on May 19 before the match against arch-rivals Olympiacos in the Greek Super League. Panathinaikos is currently in third place in the table but can’t win the Greek title.

“Twelve years where any coach builds a team of claims, suddenly gets fired “at night” with Alafouzou’s personal “inspiration”. Twelve years with this incredible guy who managed to desecrate even the memory of Michalis Filopoulos by not respecting anything in front of the altar of his connections.

Twelve years where the millions of Panathinaikos see the football department languishing and suffering. Twelve years of FAILURE signed by Alafouzou. THERE IS NOTHING ELSE… Let’s unite our…
