The Haladas Chronicle
Player ratings31 Aug 2026
Attila Dibusz runs at them all day
Successful dribbles: 46. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.
Match26 Aug 2026
Haladas out of the cup
Ujpest ended it 0‑2. The season narrows to the league now, and everyone in the ground knew it before the final whistle.

Norbert Nagy breaks a bone — 31 days out
Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 31 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Puskas Akademia come back empty-handed
The bid was some way short and Haladas did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Laszlo Bese hands in a written request
“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Haladas can pretend not to have heard.

Dominik Szalai 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.

Haladas supporters have found a favourite in Dominik Szalai
There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 23-year-old it feels ownership of. Dominik Szalai has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.
Match29 Aug 2026
Haladas find a way past Puskas Akademia
Puskas Akademia made Haladas work for it, but the scoreboard read 2‑0 at the end and the table does not ask how.

Eyes on Daniel Nikolic again
The phone has started ringing about Daniel Nikolic again, and this time the name on the line is Ujpest. Haladas are listening politely and promising nothing.
In brief
