First the Cup, then the playoffs
Rather neutrally, the people of Phoebus welcomed the result of the draw for the promotion play-offs in the 3rd National Division. Promotion is obviously in the hands of the Dodecanese champions, however as Savvas Orphanidis said yesterday, until April 28, when the games will start, there are three more matches for the Blue Star Ferries A’ division championship and most importantly, the first semi-final of the Dodecanese Cup against the winner of the Rhodes-Ialyssos match.
As the Kremasten coach noted, after winning the title, his team is in a difficult, transitional phase and it is necessary to continue with great care and concentration, in order to return to full speed through the last three games of the championship, to claim her qualification to the final of the Cup, which is a perennial goal, and to enter the playoffs completely ready.
At the present stage, everyone in Phoebus is thinking about the away game of the 28th matchday of the A’ division Blue Star Ferries against Asteras Pastidas, for which they have started to prepare in full conditions.
