description: "Nikos Alefantos was a Greek professional footballer and football coach. He is regarded as one of the most innovative football managers of the 20th century, known in Greece for his phlegmatic personality, short temper and famous quips. He is often regarded as the greatest Greek manager never to have won one of the two major domestic titles. In his 35-year managerial career he managed 28 different teams, most notably Olympiacos and Iraklis, whom he guided from the relegation zone to a 4th-place finish in 1985–86, after what was dubbed the \"Play-off of Shame\" in Greece."
