Dear friends of PAOK,

With this statement, we sincerely ask for your undivided support in the titanic and completely successful effort in recent years to keep the Toumba Stadium turnstiles open, alive, and to be the driving force of our players and coach in all of our matches until the end of the year.

Many times we have been forced to defend ourselves against hypocritical and insidious attacks and in most cases, even with «wounds», we emerged victorious. Such a moment is now. AEK has chosen the wrong path of confrontation with PAOK. But this does not concern the stadium, the security and hospitality standards of the opposition, the playing field and the stands. There where the answers are provided in sports over time.

It is obvious that AEK has chosen the path of challenges, in order to benefit from any incorrect reactions we may have. They will attempt the same tomorrow. We must all rise to the occasion and ignore any such attempts. This will be a special victory.

Tomorrow at the Toumba, a football match is being held between two very good teams, the matches of which will be repeated several times in such critical moments. We ask you to be by the sides of our players, to reinforce their efforts ONLY with your voice and to maintain your composure.

For any challenge from opponents, there are the authorities, the Police and the Prosecutors, who have been informed and must act immediately, preventing provocations and incidents.
