Has anyone been to Ujpest since the creation of the network? Or has been to Hungarian league games?

I'll be in Budapest for a few days and thinking of going along to cheer on our network buddies, just wondering if it's recommended and if anyone has tips. It looks cheap - around £4 for a ticket.

    In short no, but normally you only get what you pay for, have a good trip :wink:

    When abroad I'll always go to a game. It's great to enjoy a different football experience.

    Is accomodation cheap out there? Return Flights are quite expensive when I looked, around 300 quid.

    300 quid from Australia is pretty reasonable. :wink:

    Completely agree. Love taking in a foreign game.

    Yes, I think so. Staying somewhere very cheap for a couple days then in what I think/hope is an apartment for about £35 per night.

    Not flying from London, but got cheaper flights than that at short notice, so with more time from London, I would say flights should be OK.

    I was hoping someone had been to one of the Budapest clubs to confirm if it's safe enough or not for league matches. Ujpest are playing Ferencvaros so it's a derby of sorts. Not expecting top quality, but £4 for a League 2 game would be good value. The "Premium +" offering is less than £8.

    @AFKABartram do you want a report Charlton Aesthetic style? "The Ujpest players float along like lilac and white pyjamas caught in the wind. I am entranced by their dancing." :smile:

    No point going now sadly, Hungarian Ultras are boycotting games due to ridiculous security measures, Copa90 did a documentary on Ujpest Ferencvaros which is worth a watch, modern stadiums that aren't too big but entry stadiums due to repression

    It took less than 2 hours for this guy to be banned? I'm guessing it's my favourite wanabe Crvena Zvezda fan.

    Says a lot about someone's priorities if they say on a football forum that there's "no point" going to a football match if there won't be people dressed up with flags and flares.

    I've read there's a card you have to have

    No point in going to a game famous for fans when there is no fans. And yeah worse than airport security you have to have yours veins tested and saved along with other stuff

    I've got a couple of contacts. PM me your email and I'll hook you up. Ujpest v Ferencvaros is about as big as it gets so you struck lucky.
