The former Mayor and Member of Parliament for Piraeus, Panagiotis Fasoulas, with an "interview-river", entitled "But, who are you finally, Mr. Fasoula?", Which he gave to a friend of the ONEMAN journalist; for everything. Mainly for basketball, politics, but also for his involvement with the Municipality of Piraeus, for which he states that he regrets!
But let's look at some characteristic excerpts and especially those that refer to the Municipality of Piraeus, PASOK, Socrates Kokkalis, PAOK and Olympiakos:
"I regret that I became Mayor"
In his short report on his mayoral term he says:
"I regret that I became mayor, because I did not change anything important with my presence and because I ate many productive years from myself. The valuation is not positive. Why did I do that? Did I miss the glory? The love of the world? The money; It was the wrong choice.
I thought that the municipal theater needed to be renovated urgently in order to change the form of Piraeus and I insisted on that a lot. The others were looking to get me out of the mayor and hit me in the trash. "The city hall is a very honorable title, but I regret because I could not do what I wanted".
"Parliament was not interesting"
For his parliamentary term, he states:
"The parliament was not interesting when I was an MP. The deputies did not vote then, they voted for the party line. Now they express a different view. Then if you disagreed, you were a rebel and a traitor. I do not remember that such a critical issue came to the parliament as the memoranda.
In Parliament I felt completely out of my water. You think that you can go in and make a priest, but that is not the case. To tell you the truth, in 2004 I told my policeman 'If I manage not to go out, but without people spitting on me, it would be a great gift !. And fortunately my seat went to Simitis, even though I was the first to vote in Piraeus ".
"I am voting, PASOK but I no longer belong to PASOK"
"I have repeatedly stated that I no longer belong to PASOK. Essentially from PASOK, I have suffered a silent deletion, no one has explained to me why I am never invited to any event. I still vote for PASOK.
In ancient times I was in the KNE. Being in a leftist youth in the 80's was a must. Then came basketball more intensely in my life, you could not be a protester and a player at the same time and I was no longer actively involved. "In '89 I voted for PASOK for the first time and I stayed in this area for many years".
"Everyone loved Socrates…"
About his relationship with Socrates Kokkalis:
"I met Kokkalis when I went down to Athens. He could stay a little longer at Olympiakos. He left and left behind 13 championships in football, he left Renti, Karaiskaki, championships and European basketball. He was a very pleasant man, he was not inaccessible. His size was such that he did not see us as something guys who came to eat his money. We had a good time, the atmosphere was great, he sometimes went down to the locker room to make his remarks. He came with his serious face, but in the end he was caught by laughter and the "hohoho" started όλοι All the players loved him. "Other presidents pay, but I do not know if another president had such respect anywhere."
"I am OLYMPACOS. Perfect"
For PAOK and its final port, Olympiakos:
"Say that I am a traitor and I want to leave PAOK. They owe me 170 million drachmas, they did not pay me at all that year. If they go to the Deposits and put 23 million in my account, they block me and I can not go anywhere. They take revenge on me, they nail my card to the ceiling, they take their blood back. Well, they did NOT do THAT either. (laughs out loud) With interest, the amount had reached 280 million. Eventually, I gave them all the interest and half the capital and got 80 million so that they would not get the stadium. He did not say that either. I have put most of the money in PAOK. "And I have not taken them once."
"When a career ends, you stay where you have the best memories. That's why I stopped at Olympiakos, because I had the best memories there. I am an Olympian. Perfect".
