About

A.E. Karaiskakis Football Club is a professional football club based in Arta, Greece. The club currently competes in the Super League 2. Supporters Though formed in 2012, not only do Karaiskakis have a decent number of supporters, they have also created a fanbase. Members of this unofficial fanbase call themselves "Eagles", and gather in Gate 3. Rivalries Few seasons after Karaiskakis' establishment, a rivalry against the older club from Arta, Anagennisi, was born. In 2015, rumours were spread that the two clubs were on the verge of being merged. However, no official proposal has been made yet. Nicknames A.E. Karaiskakis may sometimes be referred to as "Choriates" (Villagers). This nickname was first used from AO Trikala fans in the 2014–15 season, when they and Karaiskakis were the two favourites for promotion to the second tier, as a way of offending Karaiskakis fans for living in a small town like Arta. Supporters of Karaiskakis adopted this nickname, and used it in one of their banners for the match against Trikala. What was written on the banner was - (Welcome to the "village"), but didn't have any result as they lost 2-1.
