Club Foundation

Iraklis was established in 1899 as the "Friends of the Arts" Club. The organization was not originally conceived as an athletic group, instead dedicating itself to literature and music. In 1903, however, the members of the club decided to include sports in their activities, constructing a gym and creating swimming and cycling teams. At the time, football was a new sport, but rapidly increasing in popularity, so a football team was soon founded. The first official game was held on April 23, 1905. April 23 is the 113th day of the year (114th in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar. ... 1905 (MCMV) was a common year starting on Sunday (link will display the full calendar). ...


Unfortunately, the club soon faced financial problems. In 1908, the "Friends of the Arts" Club merged with the Olympia Club, giving birth to Iraklis. The complete name of the club became, "Ottoman Hellenic Club of Thessaloniki - Iraklis" (at the time, the city of Thessaloniki was under Ottoman rule, so the club was forced to include the word Ottoman in its name. The word was dropped immediately upon the city's 1913 liberation). On November 29, 1908, Iraklis' first article of association was enacted. As its colors, the club selected blue and white, to resemble the Greek flag. November 29 is the 333rd day of the year (334th in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar. ... 1908 (MCMVIII) was a leap year starting on Wednesday (link will display the full calendar). ...


History

Iraklis' history is closely associated with the city's history, and many city personalities have worn an Iraklis jersey.


Early years

During the first Greek Championship Games after World War I, Iraklis won many of its matches and was considered a model team. As years passed, the club maintained its status at the top of Greek football, winning the Panthracian games in 1923. Also in 1923, Iraklis established its first junior teams. Football in Greece was suspended from 1941-1945 during the German occupation and the start of the Greek Civil War. After the suspension, the club was constantly competing with Aris for the Thessaloniki championship, which gave upon its winner the right to participate in the Greek championship. Iraklis participated in the 1947 Greek Cup Final, where was defeated 5-0 by a very strong Olympiakos side. In the 1950s, the team established its position among the top teams in Greece along with Olympiakos, Panathinaikos,PAOK, AEK, and Aris. Nevertheless, the club struggled with financial difficulties in an ailing Greek economy. Thessaloniki, where many refugees from the Greco-Turkish War of 1919-1922 had settled, was particularly damaged by the economic downturn. The highlight of the decade was the 1957 Greek Cup Final, in which Iraklis was once again defeated by Olympiakos, 2-0. “The Great War ” redirects here. ...

1960's

In the 1960s, the format of the Greek Championship was changed to its present structure. Iraklis was, at the onset of the decade, one of the most consistent performers in the league. However, as the club endeavored to maintain a solid financial position, it became less competitive for the championship title. The organization faced another major setback as Iraklis -and Thessaloniki's only private- stadium was purchased by the state in a compulsory deal to expand the city's university. The club began playing in the newly constructed (and state-owned) Kaftanzoglio Stadium. Kaftanzoglio is a football stadium located in Thessaloniki. ...


1970s

The 1970s were arguably Iraklis' peak years. A solid roster was assembled, featuring several players from the club's youth ranks, including Fanaras, Nikoloudis, Zafiridis, Gesios, Papaioannou and Haliabalias. The club acquired Vassilis Hatzipanagis, an already member of the USSR national team of Greek descent. Hatzipanagis who was later voted the best football player in Greek history and was honored as so in the UEFA Jubilee Awards, with his unique style attracted huge audiences to Iraklis games.He had an immediate impact upon his arrival as he was involved in all 4 goals of Iraklis in Greek Cup final of 1976,(a 6-5 penalty decision-4-4 in regular time against Olympiakos) either by assisting or scoring. Vassilis Hatzipanagis (born October 26, 1954 in Tashkent, Uzbekistan) was a football (soccer) attacking midfield who played for Iraklis in Salonica, Greece. ...

Olympiacos CFP is a Greek football club, part of the Olympiacos sports club founded in 1925, which plays in the port city of Piraeus. ...


1980's

The 1980s began with a scandal for Iraklis. Pellios, a player of local rival PAOK, accused a member of the Iraklis board of trying to bribe him before the second leg of the 1980 Greek Cup semifinal. The incident was very controversial, especially as Iraklis had already won the first (away)leg. Despite its progress to the 1980 Greek Cup final (losing 5-2 against underdogs Kastoria), the team was demoted by the Greek football federation - even though finishing 8th in the table- to the second division winning it easily in the 1980-81 season, breaking all division records for the largest home and away victories, most goals scored, and the largest standings lead. Iraklis' star player Vassilis Hatzipanagis, famously refused to play in any second division games out of protest for the decision to relegate the historic club over controversial and unproven charges.In 1983-84 Iraklis reached its best league position to date, finishing in third place overall.In 1985 the team won the Balkans Cup with an aggregate victory (5-4) against FC Argeş Piteşti. 15,000 fans travelled to Athens to support Iraklis in the 1987 Greek Cup final - considered the largest away crowd in Greek history-,unfortunately to see their team lose 3-1 on penalties(1-1 regular time)against OFI Crete. PAOK or Panthessalonikeios Athlitikos Omilos Konstantinoupoliton (Greek: Πανθεσσαλονίκειος Αθλητικός Όμιλος Κωνσταντινουπολιτών), or the Pan-Thessalonikan Athletic Organisation of Konstantinopolitans, is a sports club from Thessaloniki, Greece. ...

1990's

The 1990s were a period of reconstruction for the club, as aging players either left the club or retired. Hatzipanagis' retirement in 1990 had a major negative impact on the team's success. Fans began calling for a change in the club's management, as club president Petros Theodoridis began selling the team's most talented players.Iraklis competed in 1990 against Valencia in the UEFA Cup, losing in overtime. Vassilis Hatzipanagis (born October 26, 1954 in Tashkent, Uzbekistan) was a football (soccer) attacking midfield who played for Iraklis in Salonica, Greece. ...

2000-present

The team was sold in 2000 to prominent businessman Evagelos Mytilineos for $3,000,000. The new club president's first move was the surprising sale of highly rated striker Michalis Konstantinou to Panathinaikos. Newly appointed coach Giannis Kyrastas was widely considered Greece's best, remained with the team for only one and very dissapointing season.Angelos Anastasiadis was appointed as the new coach, and even though this was considered a controversial move due to his history as a member of rival club PAOK his tenure was very successful one as the team qualified twice in a row for the UEFA Cup on a small budget. In 2004, Mytilineos announced his desire to leave the team and therefor it's sale to Giorgos Spanoudakis for just $1, although heavily in debt. Spanoudakis initiated a series of expensive deals, driving the team close to bankruptcy. He later tried to sell the team unsuccessfully to an unknown businessman named Dimitris Houlis.The Greek football commission blocked the transfer, raising questions in the media regarding its handling of the previous one. Also in 2004, Savvas Kofidis, famous as a player for the team, became its manager. In 2005-06, he led Iraklis to an acclaimed 4th place finish, playing effective and attractive football.With debts of almost $8,000,000 to players, coaches, and the state, the team started the 2006/7 season attempting to reconcile its finances by selling its most talented players(Joel Epalle and Panagiotis Lagos) who were instrumental in the previous year's success. Kofidis resigned as manager after Iraklis lost 7 and drew 2 of his first nine games in Greek Super League and was eliminated from the UEFA Cup in extra time by Wisla Krakow.Eventually the 2006-07 season ended with in a hard breaking fashion as the team gained it's survival to Greek Super League only in the last matchday after breaking an 39 matches unbeaten home run of Skoda Xanthi. In July 13th 2007 Spanoudakis eventually resigned and the team passed to the hands of a consortium of local businessmen with prominent Greek singer Antonis Remos(a life long fan of the team)as their leader.
