       The Federation are now publishing who the VAR team are as well.
       They have updated the first 5 rounds with who they were as well.
       They're still publishing the ref/4O & AR's the day before the
       match and adding in the VAR team about 1 hour/1 hour 30 mins
       before kick off.  I assume they are waiting until they are
       safely parked up in the ground before announcing them.  I can
       understand this & it's fair enough, our VAR's are mobile - one
       of that team will be driving the van to the ground, rather they
       and the van arrive safely. The van is a standard long wheelbase
       white van with no distinctive markings on the outside. At least
       the Federation is naming them now.

       Nebojša took the job there in June/July & I am doing the welfare
       work for him as I did at Újpest.  It's all done via Skype/zoom
       right now. With covid I've not had the chance to visit there yet
       although last time I was home in Hungary, Nebojša was there for
       a couple of days so Mr bmb and I got to see him & his beautiful
       wife for a socially distanced coffee, which was nice.
       Mr bmb & I are having to do some hard evaluating right now, he's
       been refused leave to remain in the UK, I've been refused it in
       Hungary (thanks brexit...) so we're having to do the whole no
       more than 3 months out of 6 (90 days in 180 to be exact) palava
       across both countries and in a pandemic with travel restrictions
       ever changing that has not been easy to put it mildly! Neither
       of us was even allowed to travel to the others country for
       several months last year, I think we ended up getting about 6
       weeks in total together at most so we are trying to work on a
       solution now. It's easier for me to move as I can work remotely,
       he can't. His time off is restricted to summer & winter breaks n
       the football season & would normally just spend the whole time
       here but with mandatory quarantine, he's only been able to come
       for a week-10 days and then have to return so his quarantine
       period is up in time for the pre-season starting.  We're only
       about 35km away from the border with Romania so we are house
       hunting for somewhere as close to the border as possible on the
       Romanian side with the intention of me living 3 months in
       Hungary, 3 months in Romania and repeat. We're awaiting an ok
       from Romanian immigration if they will allow it. Our best bet
       would be an apartment in Nagykároly (Carei) which is about
       70/80km from us.  The sticking point is me being disabled and
       requiring a carer. Although he would be able to travel back &
       forth, even with his job, in the winter a lot of those roads are
       closed off for weeks. We have very good friends in Nagykároly
       who would do my shopping (no online home deliver there) and
       check in on me daily to make sure I've not had a fall etc.
       Hopefully immigration will accept that as enough. The other
       alternative is for 3 months in Hungary, then 3 in Latvia and
       repeat.  I'd live with Nebojša in Latvia, which would solve the
       carer problem but then those 3 months Mr bmb would be limited to
       get there for more than a few days here & there and of course is
       depended on Nebojša remaining there longer term! Maybe we'll end
       up with 3 in Hungary, then 3 in Romania, 3 in Hungary and then 3
       in Latvia!!  bmb jr would get a student visa and would be able
       to remain in Hungary as a student, Mr bmb & his family would
       look after him. I can't currently apply for citizenship in
       Hungary, aside of the fact I'd fail the language test right now,
       I have to be living there to do so & we go round in circles as
       they will only let me live there for 3 months in every 6 & I
       don't qualify for any of the visas that would let me stay full
       time! So for now it's 3 months in the UK, 3 months in Hungary
       and repeat until we find a better solution. Without covid he'd
       spend 4-6 days in every 14 here and I can do the full 3 months
       there but that's very disruptive for jr and his studies.  We'll
       find a solution but probably not until covid finally does one
       and we don't have those travel restrictions thrown into the mix!
       I'm hoping to get out to Latvia for a couple of weeks before
       Christmas so I can meet the players face to face and go to a
       couple of games.  Right now I attend training most days via
       Skype but someone will just mute me & run off when I start
       lecturing them about their lack of on-field discipline [emoji23]

       Just an update JCFC - we won our cup semi final today - plenty
       of celebrating together via zoom! Mr bmb was permitted to join
       the celebration as it is our anniversary!
       Cup final is 24th October so now decisions to make as to Hungary
       or Latvia that weekend! Jr's birthday is on the 23rd, which is
       also 1956 Memorial Day/Republic Day, the biggest day in the
       Hungarian calendar - well actually the 2nd biggest after St
       Stephen's day, which is Hungary's official birthday & the state
       foundation/constitution day celebrated on 20th August. 1st
       celebrated in 1092, just in case you are interested!. King Saint
       Ladislaus I declared it a sacred day from that year. King Saint
       István was canonised 20.08.1083. He was crowned King on
       25.12.1000 and died 15.08.1038. Changed to be called
       constitution day under communist occupation, it was reinstated
       as St Stephen's day in 1990. I digress... 26th October is St
       Dömötör day, unique to Hortobágy and the festival is normally
       the weekend closest to the 26th - this year it is on the 24th. I
       think we all know how upset I was at not being able to travel
       home for that last year. The borders were closed for St Georges
       Day in April, which Mr bmb was going to take me to as
       compensation for missing St.Dömötör day.  Now the cup final is
       on St.Dömötör Day!! [emoji24]
       Any ideas how I can be in Hortobágy and Latvia on the same day!
       Flights between the 2 are between Budapest (2.5hr drive from
       Hortobágy) & Riga (3hr drive from Liepāja). Flight is 2hrs.
       I'm not going to manage to do both am I? [emoji24]

       Bit gutted this weekend, I am meant to be in Hungary right now,
       bouncing up and down with excitement ahead of the derby before
       travelling straight down to Hortobágy for St Dömötör Day
       tomorrow. [emoji24] I hate you coronavirus...
       Mr bmb has promised to take me to Hortobágy on St George's Day
       on April 23 if the borders are open. Not quite the same as St
       Dömötör Day but a reasonable alternative! On St George's Day the
       csikós & herdsmen bring the grey cattle and the racka sheep out
       from the barns and take them onto the Hortobágy for the summer,
       St Dömötör Day is the day they return them from the Hortobágy to
       the barns for the winter. (Everywhere but the Hortobágy it
       happens on St Michaels Day in September). The festival itself
       has been cancelled but I was still going to go and sit my butt
       on the 9 hole bridge all day and watch them coming back in  :'(
       Trying to persuade Mr bmb to go and get me one of the herdsman's
       coats! They are simply stunning!

       I still want a szur coat! The herdsman's coats.

       My men folk have spoken - Hungary it is! No cup final for bmb
       other than via TV & Skype! Jr will not consider anywhere but
       Hungary for his birthday, he has plans on Saturday evening
       apparently! Mr bmb is working that weekend (well Friday & Sunday
       - it's a National holiday on Saturday!) and refuses to take it
       off. He will ensure I am "dumped in Hortobágy" for St. Dömötör
       Day so I can go and gaze in awe at the csikös, now whether I am
       re-collected from Hortobágy & taken back home afterwards is open
       to interpretation at this stage! Maybe time to trade Mr bmb in
       for one of the csikós! [emoji1]

       Last week was Magyar Kupa week and although the big teams joined
       in, the games are refereed by NBIII & NBII referees.
       We're back in the league this week - Round 7. We're already
       almost a quarter of the way through the season already!

       This was a thoroughly enjoyable 7 goal thriller with Paks
       beating ZTE 5-2.  Is it just me or is a team getting completely
       stuffed so much more satisfying when they have a very unlikeable
       coach?  I'm sure Walter Róbert has managed to blame the 5 goals
       against his team on the referee whist ignoring their disallowed
       goal being 27 feet offside as being a wrong cal by VAR... He did
       impressively manage his 2nd card free game though, well 3rd if
       you count the game he was suspended for! 3 yellows, 1 2nd yellow
       red and a 1 match ban so far.

       Welcome back József! His first on pitch match this season - he's
       been VAR in 8 games so far. He was looking very slender, happy,
       relaxed and confident at the VAR training camp just before the
       season started so hope that will reflect on the pitch this
       afternoon. 2 toothless teams so a good match to come back with.
       Mr Pintér may need to take a bottle of headache tablets with him
       as our manager will no doubt whinge, whine, throw tantrums and
       generally embarrass himself & the club again [emoji57]  I admit
       I was hoping we would have a new manager by now... Horváth is a
       scruffy shambles! He looks like Worzel Gummige with about the
       same level of tactical nous - my apologies to Worzel Gummige for

       Good news we won 4-2, bad news is the manager is staying another
       week!!  To be fair to both teams, their behaviour was excellent.
       The manager even had cleaned himself up for the game, washed
       brushed hair and smartish clothes - maybe he reads RTR!
       Probably the easiest game József will have.  He really has lost
       a lot of weight & was looking really good out there today.
       Mol Fehérvár v Puskás Akadémia
       Black shirted #SolymosiWatch - what more needs saying!  He got
       his 1st VAR intervention today, resulting in a red card.  Was
       completely on his blind side, a stamp, 3 players blocking his
       view. Alerted by VAR & did an onfield review.  I like how they
       show exactly what the ref is watching on screen.
       BMB must have been a good girl week as there is a further
       #SolymosiWatch (as 4O) on the derby tomorrow.
