[edit]

In the 2021–22 season, the club got 6th place in Super League Greece. In 2021-22 PAS Giannina finished 6th on the regular season and took part on play off round, finishing 6th, as well. This was one of the club's most successful campaigns mostly due to the defensive style of play used by the coach Iraklis Metaxas, using the containing 4-4-2 double six formation. An important part was played by goalkeeper Yuri Lodygin, regarded as the best goalkeeper to ever play for the Epirus side, and the defenders Peersman, Erramuspe, Kargas, Saliakas and Lodygin providing defensive security and stability, Erramuspe and Kargas displayed greater skill than usual, and Peersman and Saliakas being two of the most consistent players throughout the whole season helped the team. On the midfield, PAS Giannina signing from Super League 2 club Levadiakos, Zisis Karachalios completed one of the best seasons of his career, alongside Domínguez for the first half of the season, and Caleb Stanko for the second half.

[edit]

In the 2022–23 season, Thanasis Staikos took over, after a rather controversial decision from the club president, signing an inexperienced coach. PAS Giannina finished 11th on the regular season and took part on play out round. It finished on 9th after the end of play out. PAS started the 2023–24 in a very promising way, after beating A.E. Kifisia by 3–0 in the opening match, and an away draw against Panetolikos. However, lack of defensive stability, poor tactics and serious goalkeeper errors, PAS suffered shocking loses against Panseraikos, Volos, Lamia and A.E. Kifisia. Eventually, after a 13 games winless streak, Staikos resigned, becoming the first manager in 10 years to be replaced mid-season. After an awful season PAS Giannina finished on 14th and relegated to Super League Greece 2.

In 2024–25, PAS had a mediocre run in the championship. It finished 3rd but it never managed to challenge for promotion. The club also changed two managers and finished the season with a caretaker manager. The owners imposed a payment freeze, leading to financial difficulties for the club.[43] The club also received 7 transfer bans from FIFA.[44] There was also a threat of the club dropping to the local amateur divisions.[45] Negotiations took place regarding the transfer of ownership, but they failed to result in a deal.[46] Just before the club's collapse, Nikos Siontis, the son of the team's former captain, stepped in to save the club.[47][48] PAS also sold over 2,000 season tickets, despite the fact that it was still unclear whether the team would participate in the league and without having a squad in place.[49] Even former players bought season tickets to support the club.[50] The club also competed in the Greek Cup 2025–26 with only 12 players, mostly young, with the youngest being just 15 years old. Although there was no hope of winning, over 3,000 fans showed up at the stadium to support the team.[51][52] The club reached agreements to restructure its debts, the transfer bans were removed, and it secured a license for the upcoming league.[53][54][55] In 2025–26, PAS had a disappointing season and finished 9th in the regular season of the championship. In the play-outs, PAS managed only three wins and finished 4th, resulting in relegation to the Gamma Ethniki. The club continued to face financial difficulties throughout the season.[56][57][58]

PAS Giannina had total control of the game, and in the 31st minute Fonsi Nadales doubled his team lead with a great volley after a perfectly executed cross by Nikos Karanikas. On the second half, the goalkeeper Alexandros Paschalakis with a presice volley across the whole length of the pitch, spotted Dimitrios Ferfelis who took advantage of the opposition's defenders error and sprinted towards goal with Acosta trailing. Ferfelis' shot got blocked by the goalkeeper, who couldn't handle the ball, and got served for Noé Acosta who scored to form the final score. On the 2nd leg, about 500 PAS Giannina fans traveled to Norway to support their team. The away side managed to concede no goals on the first half, but conceded 3 goals on the second half, and the game was led to extra time.

Rivalries

[edit]

PAS Giannina fans feel deep antipathy towards the clubs from Athens: Olympiacos, Panathinaikos and AEK Athens. There is a rivalry with OFI based on the events surrounding their 2001 playoffs. In contrast, derby matches against AEL are competitive in the sporting sense but do not evoke the same feelings of enmity from PAS Giannina supporters. The other important rivals are Panachaiki, Panetolikos, AO Kerkyra. In the past there were local derbies in Epirus. These were with Anagennisi Arta and PAS Preveza. There was a rivalry with Panionios based on 1984 playout match.[70] This rivalry has been increased since the summer of 2016, when Panionios was not granted a license by UEFA to compete in the Europa League following a claim by PAS Giannina. UEFA ruled that PAS Giannina take Panionios’ place in the 2016 2nd qualifying round of the Europa League.[71][72]
