History
Early years
The club was founded in 1890 by a part of the sizeable Greek population of
İzmir (
Greek: Σμύρνη), under the name of "
Orpheus Music and Sports Club". In 1893, some Orpheus members keen on sports formed a separate organization, the "Gymnasion Club", and started holding yearly sports competitions. In 1898, Orpheus and Gymnasion merged again to form
Panionios GSS. Members of Panionios represented Greece in all international track and field games until these developed in the modern Olympic Games.

1922

the club was forced to transfer, firstly to Athens and later, to the Athenian suburb of
New Smyrna, where much of the population of
Smyrna re-settled. The club always had a strong tradition of cultivating all major sports; it was the first Greek club to establish a
track and field division for women, in 1925. Another major example of the club's contribution to Greek sports rests in the fact that it was Panionios that introduced Basketball and Volleyball in Greek sports society.
With the gradual transformation of men's football and basketball into professional sports, Panionios FC and
Panionios BC became privately owned clubs operating under the auspices of the traditional "amateur sports"
Panionios GSS. To date, Panionios remains the only sports club in Greece that was awarded the Golden Cross from the Athens Academy as a recognition of the club's rich and continuous enrichment of Greek sports.
Recent years
Panionios has spent nearly its entire history in the Greek First Division (now called 'Super League'), having missed out from competing in Greek football's top division only twice in its more than 100-year history. Within this, Panionios rose quite often to high levels, with top league achievement of 2nd place in 1971, losing the title to
AEK Athens. 8 years later on 9 June 1979, Panionios took revenge on AEK Athens in the final of the Greek Cup and won the title for the first time in its history after winning 3–1.

Panionios produced all three major Greek strikers of the 1980s, namely
Nikos Anastopoulos (later of Olympiacos),
Thomas Mavros (later of
AEK Athens), and
Dimitris Saravakos (later of
Panathinaikos). Other notable players coming out of the club in the 1990s included
Nikos Tsiantakis

The club faced financial difficulties which triggered the transfer of the ownership to the municipality of

in 1992. Those difficulties remained throughout the 1990s, forcing the team's league performance to drop. Yet, it remained in a high level and won the
Greek Football Cup competition in 1998 and participated successfully in the
UEFA Cup Winners Cup the year after, reaching the quarter-finals. In December 2001 large parts of the club's shares moved away from the Municipality back to private hands, where working around bankruptcy legislation the club was renamed to Neos Panionios FC, to avoid the threat of relegation from the first division.
Constantinos Tsakiris period

In 2004, shipowner
Constantinos Tsakiris was elected president of the "amateur sports"
Panionios GSS. Panionios won the women's Basketball Championship in 2006, the club's first in a team sport, and the women's volleyball team advanced to the first division. In 2006, Tsakiris acquired 85% of Neos Panionios FC stock and started restructuring the team from scratch. He changed the name of the club back to the original Panionios GSS FC and hired German coach
Ewald Lienen who, during his first year created a team that made it to the top 5 of the
Greek Super League and on to the
UEFA Cup. Tsakiris has also unveiled an ambitious plan to have the aging football ground and athletics track demolished, and build a modern multi-sport arena in its place. Apart from a 12,000 capacity football stadium, the proposed complex would include facilities for basketball, volleyball, aquatic sports, track & field, boxing, gymnastics, wrestling and more.
On the summer transfer window of 2008, the club signed Uruguay national team members
Álvaro Recoba
Álvaro Alexánder Recoba Rivero (; born 17 March 1976; nickname "El Chino" and
Fabián Estoyanoff, but shortly after
Lienen resigned by mutual consent on 11 November 2008, reason being disagreement with the Panionios' board.
On 12 November 2008 Greek coach
Takis Lemonis
Takis Lemonis ( el, Τάκης Λεμονής; born 13 January 1960) is a Greek professional football manager and former player.
Playing career
Takis Lemonis played for local club Attikos before playing for Olympiakos from 1978 until 1987. He ...
was hired and resigned on 3 December 2008 after the refuse of Panionios' board to accept Lemonis' request to dismiss three members of Panionio's coaching and management staff.
Assistant coach Joti Stamatopoulos lead the club until the end of the season. He was replaced by Belgian manager
Emilio Ferrera.
Under the
Tsakiris presidency, the club built its own training facility just outside
Athens in the region of
Koropi. The training ground is operating since 2008 but was fully completed in 2009.
Stadium

In November 1937,
Panionios G.S.S. Board of Directors led by President D. Karabatis and the Municipality of
Nea Smyrni
Nea Smyrni ( el, Νέα Σμύρνη, ''Néa Smýrni'', "New Smyrna") is a municipality in South Athens, Greece. At the 2011 census, it had 73,076 inhabitants. It was named after İzmir in Turkey, which Greek's called it as Smyrna, whence many ...

, the Athens suburb that was mainly inhabited by Greek World War I refugees coming from
İzmir, the club's historical home. Construction works started in 1938, and were completed one year later.
In the summer of 1940 the first football matches take place, with the club donating the money to support the repair of Greek Warship "
''Elli''" which was hit by Italian forces on World War II. On September later that year
Panionios G.S.S. celebrated its 50th year together with the completion of building the new stadium. Since then it has been used constantly for over 70 years from
Panionios G.S.S. associated clubs and sports divisions.
Improvement works have been undertaken in 2001 and 2003 including a cafeteria,
Panionios G.S.S. sports shop, press and office facilities, improved medical and player facilities etc. Additionally a roof was placed above the East wing of the stadium. In 2009
Panionios G.S.S. installed an electronic ticketing system on the stadium to improve security in the team's matches.
Despite the improvements the core fan base of the team as well as its management strongly support that the old stadium is inadequate to cover the team's needs in terms of quality of services provided to the fans. Additionally, there are safety concerns as the stadium does not have enough entry and exit points in case of emergency.
The highest attendance ever recorded was in 1974 against
Panathinaikos with 20,950 spectators. After the installation of seats and the reduction of the stadium's capacity there have been numerous matches with full attendance mainly in European competitions. The most recent ticket 'sold-out' was against
Panathinaikos in 2008.
Greece men's national water polo team
Apart from
Panionios G.S.S. and its associated youth teams, the stadium was used for decades from
Panionios G.S.S. athletes on track & field and numerous times from the
Greece National Under-21 football team and
Greece National Under-23 football team. Additionally, due to the closing of many stadiums for renovation for the
2004 Athens Olympic Games
The 2004 Summer Olympics ( el, Θερινοί Ολυμπιακοί Αγώνες 2004, ), officially the Games of the XXVIII Olympiad ( el, Αγώνες της 28ης Ολυμπιάδας, ) and also known as Athens 2004 ( el, Αθήνα 2004), ...
, Nea Smyrni stadium was partly used by other football clubs. They included
AEK Athens for the first half of the 2003–04 football season and
Olympiacos for one match in February 2003 against
OFI. Last it has been the venue site for the 2004
Greek Cup final played by
Panathinaikos and
Olympiacos.
Due to its densely populated location, Nea Smyrni stadium has rarely been used as a concert site. The most famous concert ever taken place was

Crest and colours
Crest
The first emblem of Panionios in
Smyrna was a figure of
Nike. In the mid-1990s, when the group belonged to the municipality of
Nea Smyrni
Nea Smyrni ( el, Νέα Σμύρνη, ''Néa Smýrni'', "New Smyrna") is a municipality in South Athens, Greece. At the 2011 census, it had 73,076 inhabitants. It was named after İzmir in Turkey, which Greek's called it as Smyrna, whence many ...
, a new emblem was introduced, influenced by the Barcelona mark. In this the shield had striped blue-colored colors and at the top left the Greek flag of the land and on the right an Ionic-style capital on a red background, referring to the Hellenism of the union and its Ionian roots. A similar crest has Panionios of
Kalamata. Tsakiris reinstated the classic emblem of the club, the emblem that the club now uses, a shield with the colours of the group (cyan and red), used by the Greeks of the Ottoman Empire in a variety of events (for example the Hellenic-Ethos naval flag).
Colours
Panionios' colours are
blue,
red and
white, mainly used as trim or as an alternative.
On the appearances of the team there was a characteristic diagonial strip, which can be seen today in the crest of the team.

Support
In 1983, at Nea Smyrni Square. There, in a night before a game of the team, the idea of Panthers began to get flesh and bones. A companionship that thought to do something different in Panionios' stadium decided to act. In that night, the name "Panthers" was first heard, which was to be the name of the companionship and then of the club. The Panthers officially started their activity as a club of organized fans, having been recognized by the administration of the association, which had then passed into the hands of the lasting Michalis Stamatelatos, who together with the also lasting Panagiotis Ammanitis, and they believed the different perception they used to see as fans.
After 2003, the Panthers against the then Achilleas Beos administration created many problems. The club lived a long period of persecution (courts, etc.), all of which led to an organizational contraction, as well as a difficulty finding a home. After 2006, the Panthers club is going through another season, as the Tsakiris administration approves and gives Panthers a space within the boundaries of the stadium where the current club is placed.
The official friendships of Panthers Club 1983 are the fans of the Italian club
Genoa and the Holmesdale Fanatics from the English club
Crystal Palace. In Greece, Niki Volos has always been considered brotherly association, as the refuge, the emblem of Niki Volos, as the first sign of Panionios in Smyrna, as well as the presence of Panagiotis Ammanitis, a beloved administrative agent in the two associations, contributed in this direction.
Common joints and recent joint actions with the Basso Rango Ultras of Apollon Smyrnis make this relationship a very important bridge between Panionios fans and other Group Associations.
Lastly, the respect among fans of PAOK and Panionios, since 1999, makes this relationship a long-lasting and robust bridge of communication. Lastly, contact with the Warriors – Gate 6 of Panetolikos is also a relationship with good communication and contact.
Panthers Club 1983 has a great social action that has grown significantly in recent years. Also, their lighthouse is Dimitros Dallas, the man who kept their beloved team alive from Smyrna and gave Panionios life again in Athens.
