Football supporters of Greek first division club Iraklis staged a protest against Greece's FA for taking away Iraklis' license. Iraklis is one of Greece's oldest clubs, founded back in 1908, but will not be allowed to compete in this year's super league. The protest took an unexpected turn when numerous fans showed up with Macedonian flags. Surprisingly, the flags were not burned rather the fans alluded to Greece's FA it would be better for Iraklis to compete in Macedonian First League, rather than the Greek super league. MINA is not aware whether the Greek protesters waving the Macedonian flags were actually ethnic Macedonians, regardless, the other fans seemed to agree with them. Comments posted on Facebook also saw the Macedonian flag as a 'good move' for Iraklis. Iraklis fans have planned for today to stage a protest in Athens as well. We wish Iraklis fans a fruitful result in their fight to save the club, and may also add that the Macedonian league would probably welcome them, lets face it, Iraklis could be the one decent club there.
