1928–29 Panhellenic Championship
Abandoned season of top-tier football league in Greece
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The 1928â29 Panhellenic Championship was not held due to serious financial problems, as the organization of friendly matches between the POK members had led the HFF to economic and competitive decline. The return of the members of POK to the HFF in July 1928 and the desire of both sides to hold the championship did not succeed, as the championships of Athens, Piraeus and Macedonia were held, in which Panathinaikos, Olympiacos alongside Ethnikos Piraeus and Aris finished first, respectively. However, since their completion eventually held until the summer, the Panhellenic Championship did not take place in fear of another financial failure.[1][2]

(Q) Qualified for the phase indicated
Notes:
- The match did not take place, as the title was essentially judged according to the criteria goal ratio, which was then applied in cases of equality (AEK needed to win the game with 10â0 or an 11âgoal difference). As a result, both clubs played a game less.
- Goudi withdrew at the second round of the tournament, having played only 5 matches. Thus the rest of their matches were awarded by 2â0.

Notes:
- In the ranking matches, both of them achieved a victory and as stipulated by the HFF legislation, 2 play-off matches were re-defined. The 3rd match ended a draw and a 4th match was held in the summer on 14 July 1929 and if it ended in a draw it would be led to extra time.[3][4] The game was suspended at the 87th minute because of fan invasion, while the score was 1â1. Eventually, the Piraeus' Association declared both clubs co-champions[5][6] in order not to repeat the incidents of the previous periods, with the departures of any of them.

Ethnikos scored a second goal at the 80th minute, but after the collision of the goalkeeper of Olympiacos with 3 players of Ethnikos after he had previously blocked the ball, thus the goal was canceled as a foul. The game continued until a fan invaded the pitch and attacked a footballer of Olympiacos that caused a general conflict, as other fans invaded as well and eventually the match was suspended.[11]
