Paniliakos, OF Ierapetra, PAO Varda, Zakynthos, Androutsos Gravia, Nafpaktiakos Asteras and Doxa Gratini were finally relegated to Delta Ethniki or the Regional Championship.

The highlight of the season was a match in penultimate round in which Apollon Smyrni's fans made serious incidents against Paniliakos. Therefore, were deducted 3 points and then was crucial to a relegation of Apollon to Delta Ethniki after many years of competing in the top leagues.[3][4]
