The HFF was divided and hesitated to take a decision, as the reactions of the local associations were varied. However, two factors played an important role in the final decision of the Greek football officials. On one hand, there was the ever-intensifying pressure for the establishment of a national division championship by UEFA, in order for the representation of the Greek clubs in the European Cups would become more meritorious. On the other hand, there was also the government's will to institutionalize the PRO-PO. That led the HFF in the eventual decision of the establishment of the first and second national divisions as replacements of the regional championships.https://retrosport.wordpress.com/2009/10/25/%cf%80%cf%89%cf%82-%ce%ac%cf%81%cf%87%ce%b9%cf%83%ce%b5-%cf%84%ce%bf-%cf%80%cf%81%cf%89%cf%84%ce%ac%ce%b8%ce%bb%ce%b7%ce%bc%ce%b1-%cf%84%ce%b7%cf%82-%ce%b1%e2%80%99-%ce%b5%ce%b8%ce%bd%ce%b9%ce%ba/ Πως άρχισε το πρωτάθλημα της Α’ εθνικής το 1959 24 October 2009 retrosport.wordpress.com el In the summer of 1959, AEK were strengthened with the striker, Stefanos Demiris, the goalkeeper, Kimon Dimitriou and the central defenders, Dimitris Diakakis and Giannis Marditsis, while the transfer of Alekos Sofianidis, who was acquired during the previous season, was finally completed. Even though the signings were not buzzing, it seemed that the team was complete and ready to claim the championship. AEK who were the only contender against the omnipotence of Olympiacos during the 1950s, entered the new championship focused exclusively on winning the title. After all, they were one step away from the previous season's title, when in the final matchday at Karaiskakis Stadium they were ahead by 0–2, but were tied and the title eventually ended up to the red and whites.https://www.rsssf.org/tablesg/grkhist.html#60 Greece 1959/60 RSSSF Ιn the Cup that started at the beginning season, AEK with characteristic ease eliminated at home Proodos Patisia with 5–0 in the first round and Victoria with 7–1 in the second round. Afterwards, they eliminated both Ilisiakos and Dafni Athens with 3–1 at home, for the third and fourth round, respectively. At the fifth round they scattered PAO Kalogreza with a 7–0 win at home and were qualified to the sixth round, where they faced Atromitos and eliminated them with 1–0 home win. At the round of 32, they were drawn against Olympiacos Chalkida, this time away from home and were eliminated with a 2–0 defeat.https://www.rsssf.org/tablesg/grkcuphistfull.html#60 Greek Cup Data 1959/61 RSSSF The first championship of the first national division started on 25 October and Giannis Kanakis emerged as the scorer of its first ever goal, when at the 3rd minute of the match against Ethnikos Piraeus at Karaiskakis Stadium he made the 0–1 for AEK that remained as the final score. However, the "dark clouds" did not take long to make their appearance, showing in the most emphatic way that the change of conduct did not automatically mean the termination of the issues of previous years. At the 11th matchday, AEK played at Thessaloniki against Aris and the score was 2–1. At the 84th minute the referee, vacillating between giving a penalty or an indirect free kick to a foul on a player of AEK inside the area of Aris, caused a clash between the footballers of both clubs. Thus, he stopped the match, which was repeated ten days later with another referee and ended 2–2. Furthermore, the serious injury of Kostas Nestoridis at the home match against Proodeftiki kept him off the pitch for about a month and during that period AEK achieved 3 draws in equal number of matches, that would cost them in the end of the season. From about the middle of the season onwards AEK had to carry on without their long serving captain, Giannis Kanakis, who retired as a footballer. Despite everyone seemingly being against them, the yellow-blacks were kept alive in the title race and at the top of the table. On 18 June, they competed at Karaiskakis Stadium against Proodeftiki. The pitch turned into a fighting arena and after a lot of banter between the players and several expulsions, the match ended in a 2–2 draw. Strangely enough, even though the referee did not record the suspensions of Stelios Serafidis and Giorgos Petridis on the match sheet, the two players were eventually punished based on the report of the observer and their monthly ban became effective after the final matchday. Furthermore, with the title race reaching its end, several clubs such as Panionios and Apollon Athens, claiming larger financial incomes, accepted the conduction of their home games against Panathinaikos at the larger home ground of the latter, Leoforos Alexandras Stadium. Even under these conditions, AEK remained at the top of the standings with a 2-point difference from the second Panathinaikos. In the final matchday AEK played at the Nea Smyrni Stadium against Panionios. It was rumored that the friendly relations between Nestoridis and his former teammates at Panionios would end up in an easy win for AEK. The rebuttal came in quickly, as Panionios won by 3–2, proving that for the duty of their players prevailed over friendship. It did not prove to be the same at Karaiskakis Stadium, where at the same time Olympiacos underperformed in the second half and were defeated by 1–4 from Panathinaikos, giving them the points needed to tie with AEK in order for the championship play-off to be set. The play-off match that took place on 31 July found the yellow-blacks decimated by suspensions from the match against Proodeftiki. Thus they played with Sotiris Fakis under the goalposts for the first time. Disappointed by the turn of the championship race, AEK were defeated by 2–1 despite taking the lead at the 14th minute with Christos Ampos. Thus, the first title of the Alpha Ethniki was "dressed in green".https://www.sport-fm.gr/article/podosfairo/superleague1/60-xronia-a-ethniki-to-mparaz-tou-titlou-tou-1959-60-kai-o-agwnas-tis-xronias-2001-02/4116462 60 χρόνια Α' Εθνική: Το μπαράζ του τίτλου του 1959-60 και ο αγώνας της χρονιάς 2001-02! sport-fm.gr The end of the season found AEK in second place in the championship having the best attack with 77 goals and Kostas Nestoridis as the top scorer with 33 goals in 27 matches, who in several games seemed to take them by the hand and lead them to their first post-war title.https://www.aekfc.gr/hp/i-istoria-mas-42825.htm?lang=en&path=-234507649&tab=0&place=0 1959 - 1968 aekfc.grhttp://www.aekpedia.com/2015/05/18/aek-1959-1960/ Περίοδος 1959-1960 18 May 2015 aekpedia.com el Management team Manager AUT Lukas Aurednik Assistant manager GRE old Christos Ribas |} Players Squad information NOTE: The players are the ones that have been announced by the AEK Athens' press release.

That resulted in incidents taking place among the players of both clubs. The referee Damalitis suspended the match, as did not want to continue, not allowing the linesman, Sidiropoulos to take his place. In addition, he did not hand over the match sheet and never clarified whether he gave a penalty kick or a foul. That was the second time in the match that AEK were denied a penalty, since earlier in the game, Nestoridis, who was alone in front of goal and having passed the goalkeeper was tackled with a knee in the back by Grigoriadis, with the referee showing a corner kick. 12 24 January 1960 AEK Athens 4–2 Proodeftiki Stamatiadis 23 42 Filios 27 o.g.
