Any ideas who these Hungarian chaps are then folks?

All gone a bit quiet on that front since the Adver article.  Just looking at some of the Hungarian players in the league at the moment and a lot are doing quite well Plymouth being quite a good example of brining in a few Granvilles and doing quite a nice bit of business off the back of it as well.

Think Krisztián Timár is the only one left in deepest Devon now. But you are right - all three were successful, Ákos Buzsáky could be playing against us on Tuesday and Peter Halmosi has earned himself a season in the top flight.

They never recovered after Fritz Walter, Max Morlock and the other German amateurs beat them in 54.

 I think it was more a consequence of Kruschev's suppression of the 56 uprising....Honved of Budapest were considered the finest club side in Europe in 1954, playing a famous game v Wolves, then champions of England.

 But by the time the European Cup started in 56, they had fallen off the radar.
