Gergő Vígh-Tarsonyi could almost pass for being one of the

And he will appear again, this time with Ferenc Karakó in
Cyprus. Perhaps MLSz see him as new FIFA AR?

Possibly but we probably have a couple ahead of him at this
stage. He certainly is one of our upcoming AR's. We have an
amazing crop of youngsters right now AR wise - we just need the
refs to go with them!! Berke Balázs is a ref I would watch for,
he's progressed so much over the last year or so and the young
lad who had his NB1 debut a couple of weeks ago - Bogár
Gergő. He had an excellent debut. Can't make my mind up re
Karakó, he'll have a decent game, then a couple of dreadful
games, then let both goalkeepers onto the pitch in identical red
kits or the goalkeeper onto the pitch wearing a yellow shirt
like his team mates but different coloured shorts! Can't
remember which one of those 2 errors was his & which one was
Pinter's error but a 12 year old trainee ref knows not to do
that so a FIFA ref doing so in a televised game... [emoji849]
If I was head of refereeing there FIFA wise I'd demote Vad to
Category 2, he's injury prone and inconsistent. He's never going
to make the elite spot, he's too old and frankly not good
enough. I'd promote Farkas from Category 2 to Category 1 to
replace him, he's the only one we have right now with a chance
to be the heir apparent to Kassai. I'd pair him up with 2 of the
young AR's - Georgiou & Szert maybe or Kobór is another
excellent youngster and start 'grooming' them to be the new
elite team in 2-3 years time. Have Bognár as No 1 AAR for the
experienced head with them and would be a good mentor for
Farkas. He's still a good ref, consistent but like Vad is too
old to take over the elite spot but unlike Vad he is also too
good to demote to Category 2 to free up the space we need freed
up. I would remove Andó-Szabó from the list, he's having a
decent season domestically but FIFA wise he is going nowhere. He
was demoted from Category 2 to Category 3 after a poor spell and
is not going to be re-promoted. As unfair as it would be on him,
we need a young ref with a chance of progressing and that's not
him. I'd then give Berke Balázs his white badge but ask for him
to go straight into Category 2 not 3. He's very diligent and a
decent young ref, he has a good chance of progressing and would
be a great challenge to Farkas to replace Kassai. He's pretty
consistent as well. I'd leave Karakó in Category 3 for the time
being. He needs to find some consistency and start getting the
basics right. He has it in him, he can be superb but yoyos
between being too lenient and too strict - he's not got that
middle balance yet. When he does then I think he could be a very
good referee. I think Berke is well ahead of him though in terms
of progression but we have no space for him on the FIFA list
without removing someone.

It won't be easy for Farkas as he only cautioned player for that
tackle in UYL...

Personally I think Balázs Berke is a better all round ref than
Farkas. Farkas was in the UEFA core program so they obviously
think he has something to offer. I find him a bit hit & miss, he
doesn't have the consistency needed yet but he can be decent, if
a bit lenient.
The trouble we have is like here in England no-one has had the
foresight to think about what is going to happen once Kassai
hits 45. He was 43 last month so has 2 years left on FIFA. I
expect he will get a +1 year but we are not prepared for his
replacement. It won't be Vad or Bognár, they are both 39 so will
be either 41 or 42, when Kassai retires, and they will not put a
40+ year old into the elite group. Farkas is literally the only
one who can replace him, he's 36 now. Our other 2 FIFA refs are
Karakó (age 35) and Andó-Szabó (39). Karakó is not progressing
as hoped at the moment, Andó-Szabó was demoted a couple of
seasons back, last season he didn't have a single FIFA
appointment & this season he's only had 1. FIFA wise he is going
nowhere fast. Karakó was given his badge too early, he was an
NB2 ref, got his badge in Jan 2016 and was then promoted to the
NB1 for the start of the spring season in the Feb. There was &
probably still is too much pressure put on him, I'd go as far to
say he is the Hungarian Stuart Attwell & it's so unfair on him.
Berke is 34 and the only non FIFA NB1 ref who is good enough &
young enough to get a FIFA badge. The other 5 non FIFA refs are
Pintér (41 next week), Iványi (age 42), Solymosi (age 46 and in
a +1 year), Erdös (age 41) and Szöts who is 36 but has now lost
his professional contract. He's not the best shall we say! I
expect to see Bogár Gergő given a pro contract from the
start of the spring season, as Szöts replacement. He's 27 so
maybe a future FIFA ref as the others retire. I've only watched
him once in his NB1 debut & he had a great game. Ádám Radványi
(age 35) will possibly replace Péter Solymosi, who I suspect
will retire in December. He's not a potential for FIFA imo. We
need to get Berke on that list asap, I think he is the one who
has the potential to replace Kassai but time is running out!
