With his announcement, Keravnos responded to the “objections” of AE Roiticom regarding the holding of the game between them. The announcement:
“Although we don’t usually deal with facebook and social media, however, respecting the history of our club and because the basketball community knows… newly enlightened team Athletic Union of Roiticians, on the other hand, the opposite happens.
There were electronic-electrical problems in the municipal indoor gym of Aigio, which were caused by the bad weather conditions of the previous night, after all, here the National indoor gym “K. Petropoulos” in Koukouli flooded everywhere!
Its roof did not withstand the bad weather conditions and the downpour of the last few hours, and thus all the training sessions of the following days on it were postponed, until the damages were repaired….
Respecting the organizing authority E.S.K.A.-H. we informed, and let her and the opposing team decide on the date of the game, whenever and if they wanted, one of our athletes may be absent on MONDAY 12/2/2024 but on WEDNESDAY 14/2 or even SATURDAY 17/2 we will have 3 main athletes, so what was the interest of our association?
And of course we would agree for the game to take place on 21/2 as the likeable newly enlightened team Athletic Union of Roiticians wants because then we would be full…but respecting the organizing authority that has its own rules for the smooth running of the championship, which decided the game to be played SATURDAY 17/2, as it has also happened in other matches due to the postponement of our championship.
The trainings on MONDAY 12/2 did not take place normally in the closed Aegion and it just got dark from 18:30 and then no team used the central hall because the lighting was not sufficient (there is evidence available to anyone).
We can’t understand why we should go and play in another neutral stadium for something we are not responsible for? in Kamares which is unsuitable for competitions or in Akrata which is 40 km away and we have not competed there at all in recent years.
Let us remind you that in the first round we played at your home with absences and without a coach, and we did not work at all…
We are waiting for you on SATURDAY in the welcoming city of AEGIO to watch the efforts of the two teams on the floor and may the best one win. Why teams win and lose. Because the most important thing in sports is respect for the opponent…
