Match24 Nov 2027

The small margins put Haladas out

Out, 0‑2 to Ferencvaros, and the long argument about which of the small moments decided it. The league is all there is now, and everybody knows it.

The terraces29 Nov 2027

Anger at Haladas spills outside the ground

It has stopped being a mood in the stands and started being something organised. Boards can ignore a bad atmosphere for a long time; they cannot ignore this stage of it for very long at all.

Squad29 Nov 2027

Real improvement from Laszlo Botka at Haladas

Form comes and goes; this has not gone. Laszlo Botka is 19, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.

Squad29 Nov 2027

Adriano De Simone in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Haladas this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad29 Nov 2027

A row about effort at Haladas

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Slobodan Simović was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

The terraces29 Nov 2027

The crowd has taken to Miloš Jović

At 21 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

Match27 Nov 2027

Akos Lisztes sends Haladas past Ujpest

It finished 1‑0, and it was Akos Lisztes’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Haladas.

Csaba Bukta gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Squad29 Nov 2027

Tamas Nikolic stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Tamas Nikolic and Haladas agree another 4 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

No sign of nerves from Miloš Jović at 21 — 7.95

The hardest thing about being 21 in a senior side is that nobody makes allowances. Miloš Jović did not need any: 7.95, and he looked the most comfortable man on the pitch.

Squad4 Oct 2027

6 saves: Ádám Varga was the team

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the whole of the defence. 6 saves, several of them the kind nobody expects to see made, and ten outfield players who owe him a drink.

The dugout4 Oct 2027

Tamas Nikolic says Haladas went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Squad4 Oct 2027

Adriano De Simone in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Haladas this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad4 Oct 2027

Words at Haladas training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Danilo Mitrović is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

The terraces4 Oct 2027

One of their own: Miloš Jović

He is 21 and the ground already sings his name, which is a thing that happens to local boys and almost never to signings. Everything from here is measured against an affection he did nothing to earn except be from here.

Match2 Oct 2027

The drought breaks for Haladas

5 without a win is the sort of run that changes how a town talks about its club, and Debrecen were the afternoon it stopped. Nothing is fixed by one result and everything feels different by one.

The dugout4 Oct 2027

Slobodan Simović gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Match2 Oct 2027

Miloš Jović the difference as Haladas beat Debrecen

Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Miloš Jović. 1‑0 against Debrecen, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.

Player ratings20 Sep 2027

Miloš Jović, 21, plays like he has been here for years — 7.93

A mark of 7.93 means one thing beside a twenty-nine-year-old's name and something else entirely beside a 21-year-old's. Nobody at the ground needed telling which this was.

The dugout20 Sep 2027

Barnabás Simon keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Haladas may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Match18 Sep 2027

The wait goes on for Haladas

4 without a win now, and the ground has developed the special quiet of a crowd that expects the worst. One scrappy 1-0 would cure most of it; that is the maddening part.

Squad20 Sep 2027

Ismaëlo Ganiou in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Haladas this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad20 Sep 2027

The step up is real for Laszlo Botka

At 19 he is doing things this season that he could not do last season, and doing them every week. Form comes and goes; this has stayed long enough to be called something else.

Squad20 Sep 2027

A row about effort at Haladas

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Danilo Mitrović was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Match18 Sep 2027

A bad afternoon for Haladas against MTK Budapest

1‑2 to MTK Budapest, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

The dugout20 Sep 2027

Ádám Varga gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

The dugout20 Sep 2027

Bence Nagy: “No excuses”

“I could talk about decisions and I could talk about luck. I will not. We lost.” The manager, 1‑2, and a press conference that lasted four minutes.
