In a bizarre turn of events, Ipswich Town's Facebook page has been taken over by Hungarian supporters.

Balint Bajner, the Hungarian striker, has become an internet sensation back in his home country following his summer move to the Championship club.

Asked why he was brought off 44 minutes into his debut against Fulham, Bajner reportedly told Hungarian media: 'So that the fans could applaud, clap me.'

No Bajner, no party! The Hungarian was brought off 44 minutes into his debut against Fulham

Social media: Supporters have been posting 'No Bajner, no party' on the Facebook page

But the former Borussia Dortmund has not been named in Mick McCarthy's starting line-up since the opening day of the season, prompting supporters to respond to every post on the club's official Facebook with the comment: 'No Bajner, no party!'

Home supporters at Portman Road have struggled to get to grips with the 23-year-old's name, but Bajner has offered some pronunciation lessons for when he does break back into the starting XI.

'In Hungary it is said "By-ner",' he told the East Anglian Daily Times. 'Fans can say it how they like though, they can say "Badge-ner" if they like, but the truth is "By-ner".'

Viral: Perhaps Mick McCarthy will reinstate the striker after the social media campaign
