“As a result it is very good in combination that we have locked up our place in the play-outs. As a wish from the beginning we wanted to win. I personally showed it and the three changes at the end were in this direction. The attempt was made with another degree of difficulty, as from the second minute we were forced into another turnover. We look at the present and the future. It is a day of satisfaction.” This was emphasized by the coach of Panachaki, Yiannis Tatsis, following the draw (1-1) with Kalamata and securing the participation of the “red and black” in the play-outs and added:
“The first goal was achieved, something nobody believed when I joined the team at the beginning of November, not only from Patras but also from all over Greece. Panachaiki was then inside a grave, the funeral was over and the undertakers were preparing to pour the soil. With electric shock we started with slogan grade or grades and that will remain. Work and patience.
I said that you can’t call the world, it will come when it feels like it. Even when Agyia was empty we felt like we were playing in a full stadium. Now in view of play-outs and showing something, work, honesty, ethics, dynamism, I can say to the fans keep coming and helping, regardless of whether they feel it themselves.
There’s still one game left to go into the final round, which I hope in the end the force of justice brings balance based on what’s happened this year with this team. We are entitled to the play-outs, we, the Patrinos, the people in general who are in the team a little more, at least for this year and following that we’ll see.
We completed a cycle with a small goal in the first phase. The next part remains, in which we will try harder. Now everyone in the group has realized, playersM officials, that we are in a very big group and we want to be winners. We still have one game left and my mind is already on Olympiakos B’.
“THREATED POLICE PERSONS”
When asked regarding what happened in Rhodes in the game once morest Diagoras, Yiannis Tatsis underlined the following: “I have played too many games as a player and coach, I don’t remember staying in the locker room for three hours in my career. Windows closed, I saw scared faces of police officers. They told us go to the airport and we will bring the fans, which did not happen. It’s unimaginable, at least for us, that we stayed in the locker room for three hours.”
PATRINOS: “WE ARE WRONGING OURSELVES”
Themis Patrinos, on behalf of the Panachaki players, said: “Congratulations to everyone for achieving the first goal, securing participation in the play-outs. But we do ourselves an injustice when in many games we are constantly behind the score. We the players have to find it. We have to understand that we are very good players. We will continue to work hard to achieve the big goal, which is to stay.”
