The football rivalry between Olympiacos and PAOK is considered the fiercest intercity rivalry in Greece and a large number of games between the two football teams have been stigmatized by nasty incidents. [1] [2]
Thessalonians feel that Athens in general and especially Piraeus has consistently been favored by the Greek State over their city and state and the fans of Thessalonian teams consider their Athenian and Piraeus rivals, the so-called Π.Ο.Κ., the main reason that their teams have been marginalized.
