Excellent work, thanks. Further research leads me to believe the postcard relates to this match:

Hi All,

I've just acquired this pre-World War One postcard hereunder and would like to clear up exactly which England team is pictured and their opoonent too if possible - can anyone assist please?

What I think I know so far is that it is the England team from the 1908 or 1909 tour to Hungary (the printed text on the back is in Hungarian and states it was printed in 1911). The home team doesn't have the Hungarian national team badge on the players' jerseys though and I can't find mention of any unofficial or gala matches against any other teams, so I'm stumped for now.

Any help much appreciated! Thanks in advance.
This match is Magyar Testgyakorlók Köre vs English Wanderers 2:4
Budapest, FTC stadium, 10000 att. Ref: Fehéry Ákos.
