Hungarian
Delegation in visit to National Football Museum
The Museum today was delighted
to welcome a delegation of Hungarian officials who are in Lancashire as part
of Chorley Borough Councils twin town link with Székesfehérvár,
one of Hungary's eight largest cities.
The Museum was top of the list of highlights that the Hungarian delegation wanted
to visit during their visit to the North-West.
Richard Cuthbert from the Museum said: "Like England, Hungary is a country
with a long and proud football tradition. Indeed the visitors were quick to
remind me of the famous 6-3 Hungarian victory over England at Wembley in 1953!
We enjoyed welcoming them here today and i'm sure they enjoyed their visit."
