Does somebody come from among you onto Budapest?

Does somebody come from among you onto Budapest?

Unfortunately not... as with the game in Malta, we looked at the cost of the flights and to time it right with time off work, the flights were too expensive

I would love to visit Budapest though... it looks lovely.

Anyone heard any news regarding the team for this game, and what time does it kick off?

 

[Come from away]

Games at 4.00 pm and 5.00 pm.

The matches are canceled. An exceptionally big storm is raging in Hungary. There are a hundred kilometre wind-storms.

Those that I know that have gone over there have text and are none too pleased!!

 

[KyoPityus]

The weather was not favourable. I would have gone onto the match.

Kevin Blackwell told sufc.co.uk on Saturday: "We've been to Hungary a few times and that was the worst weather I've seen over here. It went from beautiful sunshine to dark clouds very quickly. "The thunder and lightening got too dangerous and my understanding is that in this part of the world they don't play in these conditions.

"It is disappointing that we haven't been able to play these games but we will fit in another training session before returning to Sheffield."

Thanks for the update KP... glad we didn't decide to spend a small fortune on the flights to get out there!
