1973–74 AEK Athens F.C. season
The 1973–74 season was the 50th season in the existence of AEK Athens F.C. and the 15th consecutive season in the top flight of Greek football. They competed in the Alpha Ethniki and the Greek Cup. The season began on 23 September 1973 and finished on 19 June 1974. Overview

The 1973–74 season was another bad year for AEK Athens. The combination of administrative changes and financial difficulties left AEK out of claiming titles and distinctions for another year, while the equally bad previous season had left the team out of European competitions. In the administration, the then political regime proposed to the businessman, Loukas Barlos, the assignment of the presidency of AEK. He refused as he did not agree with the method of assignment and Dimitris Avramidis took over the chairmanship of the team for a short time and then Ioannis Theodorakopoulos. In addition, the departure of Branko Stanković from the bench of AEK during the last season, after five consecutive seasons and for his replacement AEK ended up in hiring the Englishman Stan Anderson, a former international midfielder, who his only coaching service was at Middlesbrough from 1966, until he came to AEK. The administrativde changes with the eventual arrival of Barlos in April and the 4–0 away defeat to Olympiacos, led to firing of Anderson a few days later, leaving AEK in sixth place in the standings. His assistant Kostas Chatzimichail stepped up to end the season as an interim coach. AEK eventual finished in 5th place in the standings for the second consecutive year, at a distance of 19 points from the top, while in the Greek Cup they were eliminated at the round of 16 with a 3–1 defeat by PAOK, who eventually won the title.
