The Hungarian league season is split into an autumn and spring campaign. This is similar to several other European leagues, where a 'lengthy winter break' kicks in from December until the end of February. Yesterday's 3-0 home win over Ujpest completed the first half of the 2011/2012 OTP league season. The autumn season began back in the busy month of July through to November. July 2011 saw Paulo Sousa take charge of his new Videoton side against Kecskemet in the Super Cup final. A single goal from Andre Alves was enough to split the two sides that day, and bring the first trophy of the new era. The same month saw Vidi take on Austrian side Sturm Graz in a two legged affair. A 0-2 defeat in Klagenfurt was followed up by a 3-2 home win at the Sostoi stadium. In the end, it was Vidi who went out of the cup on aggregate. 

The autumn season has also seen a total of 15 games being played. The first match was at home to Paks, who had ended the previous season as runners up. A comfortable 4-0 home win was a good way to start things off, as Vidi would go on to do well in front of their own fans. Kaposvar proved strong opponents on their home pitch a week later, in a match dominated by torrential rain and a near waterlogged pitch. A 2-0 home win over newly promoted DVTK kept up the 100% record at the Sostoi a week later. However, Vidi and Paulo Sousa tasted their second away defeat seven days later against Debrecen, this time going down 2-1. A midweek league match on the banks of Balaton, saw Vidi pick up a single point in the 0-0 draw with Siofok. 

Pecs were comfortably disposed of a week later in Fehervar, with the red and blues winning 4-1! Sousa's new signings were bonding in well with new signing Evandro among the goalscorers that day. The Bozsik stadium a week later was the location of yet another away game, with Vidi losing by a single goal once again. September began with a last minute Tamas Vasko winner at home to Haladas, to keep Vidi up among the chasing pack, and in contact with the top two sides, Debrecen and Győri ETO. A goaless away draw in Budapest against Vasas, was followed up by a good 4-1 home win over bottom side ZTE, which saw Vidi unbeaten during that month.

October began with a good 1-0 away win over FTC, thanks to a first half Alves header, before a two back to back defeats halted the progress. Győri ETO beat Videoton 1-0 at the ETO Park, while Kecskemet gained revenge for the super cup defeat, a week later, with a surprising 2-0 win at the Sostoi, with Vidi losing their 100% home record that day. A 2-0 Hungarian cup win at Tatabanya was closely followed by the second away win inside a week, with Vidi emerging 3-2 winners in an exciting match. The final league match of the autumn campaign saw a 3-0 home win over Ujpest. The 15 games produced 8 wins, 2 draws and 5 defeats, with an overall goal count of 23-12.

The record at home was very good with 6 wins out of 7! Sousa's side won two of the 8 games on the road, drawing 2 and losing 4. Andre Alves managed to score 9 goals with Nemanja Nikolics finding the back of the opponents net 5 times. Vidi will kick off the spring season on the 19th November, as the OTP league continues for two more rounds. The match at Paks on the 27th November will be the final league game of 2011.
