I wanted to post something about Egaleo in here as my uncle who played for them recently passed away. I never got to see him play and I never really knew him as he lived in Greece and i was in Australia - I always knew he played in the old First division called the A' Ethniki however what I didnt know is how good this guy was - how well known he was and how well respected he was decades after retirement in Greek football circles .
In total he played 263 games for Egaleo 180 in the A Ethniki as a right back - he played 1 game for Greece and was known as O Vrazilianos or "The Brazilian" due to his technique and skills
Here is a photo of my uncle the old guy of course...- and these are the famous ex players players who turned up to play in a Testimonial match in his honour there are some big names in there...
Κώστας Φραντζέσκος, Δημήτρης Σταφυλίδης, Zaxos Lykourinos, Giannis Xanthopoulos, Νίκος Γκουλής, Νίκος Σαργκάνης, Κώστας Ξενικάκης, Θοδωρής Ζαγοράκης / Thodoris Zagorakis, Μιχάλης Καψής, Κώστας Λαγωνίδης, Πρέντραγκ Τζόρτζεβιτς and Στέφανος Μπορμπόκης.

Originally posted by Reaper View PostCongrats on the connection. How are the club doing these days? Hear nothing about them.They have a decent following - because its an inner city team outside of the Ultras - enjoy a lot of support from the local residents as a "2nd" team and they get some pretty good crowds especially against the more well known teams like the 2 teams from Volos , Kalamata , Veria and Kavala .Antonis Petropoulos Georgios Katsikogiannis
Rogerio Martins
Somewhere between 600 and 2000 fans - they are capable of getting 3000 - 4000 in their stadium which hold 80000
They have a decent Ultras following who are quite vocal
