These two persons should not be distinguished. They were the pioneers who conceived the idea of the establishment of a new team in Thessaloniki; but instead, in this team, the leading men would be the refugees from Konstantinoupoli.

In AEK, which pre - existed, there were major disputes and this resulted into the creation of two lines; one of them supported the Byzantium and consequently Kalpaktsoglou, and their primary goal was to embody the refugees from Constantinoupoli with all the inhabitants of Thessaloniki.
