Racism drives Cisse out of GreeceFebruary 22, 2011 By ESPNsoccernet staff Djibril Cisse says he will quit Panathinaikos at the end of the season after growing tired of the racist abuse he has suffered in Greece. Djibril Cisse joined Panathinaikos from Marseille in 2009 Cisse has scored 41 times in 49 league games for the Athens club, but says he has been driven out by the repeated behaviour of opposing fans. The situation reached a nadir during the derby game between Pana and Olympiakos on Saturday, as Cisse and three team-mates were attacked by Olympiakos supporters who entered the field of play following the 2-1 defeat for his side. "This summer I'm leaving, that's for sure," Cisse told L'Equipe. "It's impossible for me here. Even though the Pana fans are fantastic, even though the club is great, I don't want to play in this league anymore." He said of Saturday's events: "I was their target. Some of them hit me and I retaliated to defend myself. It's a disgrace. I'm not going to let things lie. This week, I will make a complaint to UEFA and I can tell you I won't drop it." Cisse also alleges that racism is a growing problem in Greek football and that the level of abuse has become unbearable. "This season the atmosphere in the stands has got worse," Cisse said. "Twice already, I have been the victim of monkey chants, of racist insults. It was the same thing again on Saturday night. "They managed to get inflatable bananas (into the stadium) that they were shaking around every time I touched the ball." soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story/_/id/883878/djibril-cisse-blames-racism-for-desire-to-quit-greece?cc=5901

Greece has proved times and times again over the years that racism is its definition. You are a good example of it since you just started a thread claiming immigrants in Greece are criminals. Immigrants are on the bottom of the list of your county's problems. Unless you've been living under a rock, then you should know that the majority of the Greeks nowdays grow up to be anarchists and commit countless of crimes against hard working immigrants.

I feel bad fro the soccer player... but the greek team went after Cisse and not vice versa.. Cisse didn't 'take over'. Cisse is also a pretty good guy, he's a class act actually compared to his other "frenchmen". Racism exists in Greece and every other balkan nation but Greece is the only country that makes news and violent actions.

Why does the Albanians comment only one sided racist ! The Albanains they're a bunch of racists against Greeks,Serbs, Blacks, etc.. Racism is unfortunately everywhere. And there are just as many white racists as there are black racists etc... "Racism and Fascism have no nationality"
