Brief round up of so far this weekend

Kisvárda Master Good 0-2 Ferencváros Referee: Berke Balázs

Expected win for Fradi. Mr Berke remains on good form, fitness excellent, positioning and movement around the pitch excellent, application of the LOTG, fair and consistent. One sublime double advantage, 1st Fradi player fouled as he passed the ball, his team mate then fouled as he did the next pass, a shot that lead to an own goal with 2 Fradi players still down on the deck at different points within the final 3rd!! Fantastic bit of refereeing He can be very happy with that performance.

Budafoki MTE 2-1 DVTK Referee: Iványi Zoltán

Typical Iványi performance. Good man management, calm, wise old head. One DVTK player didn't heed his warning to zip it, walked off but carried on with the mouthing off & deservedly ended up with a yellow for dissent. One situation in the game, tussle between 2 players in the penalty area, onto the byline, no foul but the DVTK players all went mad at the AAR Mr Hanyecz for not giving a goal kick. He was right there & had a great view and the replays showed that the whole of the ball did not go over the line at any point and Mr Hanyecz was absolutely correct. Good to see Mr Iványi straight over to protect his young AAR.

Újpest 1-0 Mezőkövesd Zsóry Referee: Erdős József

Steady performance from Mr Erdős. He's really cemented himself as a safe pair of hands. One beautiful advantage in Lilák's favour and despite it being a good minute or 2 before the ball next went out of play he went back to give Cséri a yellow card for the foul. Lilák had their weekly goal chalked off for offside - correctly again! Really cannot understand how my team can't get it - every single week we score from an offside position, every single week it correctly gets disallowed! It's about the only predictable thing about the league!!

No criticism here but a very bizarre moment late on, Branko was far side about to take a throw in and started doing the rolling arms signal for a substitution. He'd also lifted his left leg a couple of times & rubbed it so natural assumption was he was signalling that he needed to come off. There was a sub stood ready to come on, Branko took the throw but didn't come straight onto the pitch, and started walking up the side before coming back on, Mr Erdős, signalled to him to get back off the pitch which he did and continued following play up the pitch but on the touchline. Mr Erdős then signalled he could come back on and play continued for another 30 secs or so. The sub then happened and it wasn't Branko going off!! Seems he had confused everyone by trying to bring to the refs attention Lilák wanted to make a substitution and Mr Erdős assuming he was the player coming off. I had the same assumption to be fair to Mr Erdős and was cussing the new coach for daring to sub off my Branko! It had no effect on the game and was just a bit random.

Felcsút v MTK Budapest - Mr Pintér is in yellow so deserves at least a 3 match suspension for doing so. Please take note Mr Puhl... 1 team in white, the other in black, 1 goalie in mint green & the other in red* so blue shirt was available to him. *On closer inspection the keepers kit is actually a dark salmon colour so Mr Pintér could have worn red as well as blue! 

Hope Mr Solymosi took note that Mr Erdős wore red and will act accordingly!

One non refereeing thing - our TV company. All of the staff are at the very least bilingual, several speak 3/4 languages fluently. Amazing & very impressive hearing a pundit interview a player in his native language before translating it into Hungarian for the audience!

Oh dear Mr Bogár. 2 big errors today. One a kmi error and the other he got the kmi call right but handled the aftermath very poorly.

First of all Dibz should have been sent off when he hauled down whoever it was he hauled down! Penalty was correct for Lilák but should have been a red as well. Not a DOGSO scenario, there was a covering defender. Dibz actions clearly endangered the safety of the Lilák player & he should have been off. Fradi were 2-0 up at this point.

Secondly he failed to notice a growing 'thing' between Frimpong and Bacsa. 2 mins of pushing, shoving, niggling at every opportunity on & off the ball.  It was obvious to all but the inexperienced ref that it was heading for a big blow up.  Result of them not being pulled to one side and told to can it was Frimpong kicked Bacsa in the head - utterly dreadful & he should be on the end of a minimum 5 match ban for it. Ref rightly showed him the red card BUT then allows him to go over to Bacsa, where there are already a group of players pushing and shoving each other & tempers very high, and speak to him.  Ridiculous. He should have stopped him going over & got him down the tunnel asap. At least he didn't dish out any other cards to those who went for him, probably because he knew he should not have let him go over there. He only acted once Frimpong went for another player and the coaches had started to drag him off.  Completely lost control at that point & really didn't know how to handle it. Purely down to inexperience. Shame because he had had an excellent game otherwise, some good decisions and 3/4 lovely advantages. Started to lose it after not sending Dibz off. Both decisions quite late in the game, I think the pen was 78th min & the last kick of the game was, well Frimpong to Bacsa's head actually! A few weeks AAR duties should be headed his way.  He needs to thank the Lilák medical staff and both sets of coaches for it not kicking right off. They were the ones who got the players separated and calmed down while he stood and watched Frimpong arguing on the pitch with other player after he had sent him off!

It should be said Fradi were worthy winners, when your defence stand there & watch the ball and/or opponents skip on by and do nothing that is on them.  Branko at fault for both Fradi goals just don't ever quote me on that as he is my fav player & can do no wrong! The manager hugely at fault for the first goal - Perosevic was injured, he knew he had to bring a sub on, ref gave him the opportunity to bring a sub on but he stood there like a wet weekend dithering, ref restarted the game, Fradi went up the other end & scored. Manager then chucks a paddy because we only had 10 players on the pitch - that was on him. Had he made a decision and got a sub ready during the 3 mins that Perosevic was being treated for it would not have happened!! Idiot. Tallo virtually hitting the corner post with the penalty kick was embarrassing. Both of our penalty takers were sat on the subs bench but even so, there are well saved penalties and there are penalties so poorly taken a 3 year year old would be embarrassed by it - ours fell into the latter category!

Lilák have forfeited their match this week due to coronavirus.  MTK refused to agree to a postponement last week even though we only had 7 1st team players available, DVTK refused permission this week even though we only have 2 1st team players available.

From M4sport - our national TV sports channel:

The football team of Újpest will not play on Friday at the home of Diósgyőr in the 10th round of the OTP Bank League - the capital's club announced.

Újpest FC, severely affected by the coronavirus epidemic, on Tuesday asked the Diósgyőr VTK for permission to postpone the two teams' Friday league match, citing that "only two or three players from the big team can stand next to the youngsters due to illness and injury".

The Miskolc club did not agree to the request due to the dense program and its pending league postponement, in addition, the band had previously had a postponed meeting in the Hungarian Cup.

The purple-whites also asked MTK Budapest to postpone their meeting last week, but the blue-whites did not agree to this, and then on Sunday they defeated the heavily reserved Újpest at the Szusza Ferenc Stadium by 4–0 .

The purple-and-white club said on Wednesday that it would not stand for the match in Miskolc scheduled for 8 p.m. on Friday.

“The coronavirus epidemic had already decimated the Újpest FC framework by the last round, but at that time we were still trying to fulfill our obligations in the match against MTK Budapest, even though we already had only 7 players from the 25th frame who could produce a negative virus test. . By yesterday, the numbers showed an even worse picture. Of the 25 frames submitted to MLSZ, 2 players could only produce a negative test, and several of the players brought from our U19 team in Sunday's match also produced a positive test. ”

Újpest's statement emphasizes that they understand that DVTK did not accept the postponement for fear that they might be disadvantaged as a result. “Újpest FC is committed to making the tournament run smoothly, not to miss matches, but this is already an extreme situation. We don't want anyone to be in this situation. "

The club decided not to stand up against DVTK on Friday, given the rate of infection within the team. “Neither the opposing team, nor our even negative players, young people, can be put in such danger. This is the only way to prevent the spread and further infection. At the weekend we even said that Újpest would not give away 3 points without a fight, but in this case the fight is not on the field and the health of our players, the future of further matches is at stake. ”

Újpest submitted the official application to the Hungarian Football Association, which is expected to award the three points to DVTK with a goal difference of 3–0.

St Dömötör Day that I had to miss last week... I hate you covid-19

The delightful(!) Attila Kuttor was sacked a couple of days ago by Mezőkövesd Zsóry who have appointed the even more delightful(!) Attila Pintér as his replacement!

Hope they get relegated!!!

Pintér is an absolutely vile, nasty old dinosaur who should have been put out to pasture 100 years ago. Can't wait for his post match interviews "the ref got this wrong we lost because the referee breathed, the referee was incompetent..." 

This is the completely awful creature who jumped up and down yelling at the MLSZ that the referee cost them the game in the Magyar Kupa final by a "wrong" decision in the 7th minute - firstly the decision was correct and his only answer to how they managed to take the lead twice in the 83 mins following that "appalling game changing decision" along with conceding twice, no further goals being scored in the 30 mins of extra time and Lilák ultimately winning the game on a penalty shoot out was to repeat his pathetic and totally factually incorrect claim that the referee had cost them the game in the 7th minute! Disznó!!

Well I got the quickly part - thanks Mr Puhl!  Won't get my preferred red shirt  as he is on the Kispest game!
