Doesn't look too bad for Hungary against Norway in the play offs. France 2016 would be the first big tournament for this team since Mexico 1986.
Hungary is the birthplace of my parents so I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Yes!

So you're a Magyar? :O

Hungarian blood, Swiss heart.

Does Magna Carta mean nothing to you? Did she die in vain? Brave Hungarian peasant girl who forced King John to sign the pledge at Runnymede and close the boozers at half past ten! Is all this to be forgotten?

:D

So can you speak Hungarian? Are you multilingual because your written English is excellent. :)

No, I can't speak it anymore. I stopped speaking Hungarian when I was sent to kindergarten and completely lost the ability over the years. But I still understand it...well, I have the vocabulary of a four year old. So no Hungarian sex talk for me then or any political debate.

Tried that and just got rubbish ones - yours looks so good.

I always had a bit of a soft spot for Hungary. In the 1970s Chelsea change colours were the same as Hungary for a few years.

Interesting article about Iceland -

Belgium/Spain match cancelled, hope everything goes well tonight at Wembley.

Most bizarre own goal ever? Was on the Beeb news this morning and fortunately someone has posted it already, which saves me doing it.

Did Wind get the credit for the goal? Laughing out loud

How can flatulence cause an own goal?
