This is especially funny for anyone who has ever experienced the joke of a shed that is the Vitality Stadium.

It’s ironic enough that it’s called the Vitality.

When we went in League 1 I think that behind one of the goals there was nothing there the first time, and then about three rows of seats on temporary scaffolding for the other two. They really have come on leaps and bounds...

Does anyone in NG2 have any idea if the game on Sunday is likely to be affected by the flooding by the Trentside?
Might be worth updating here for those needing to travel a fair distance.

It should be OK. The water should be subsiding by then

Its still pretty mad up here (although dry today) and the waters got to go somewhere - hopefully the predictions about when the river peaks are correct.
Total blackout here near Newark. Had to walk home in the pitch black through floodwater.
Looks like dinner tonight is Pringles and Ferrero Rocher.

Not yet at 2000 levels here but heading that way according to local reports.

If the forecast is correct, it should be ok by then.
Can't imagine any chance it could have gone ahead tonight, and probably not tomorrow, but Sunday is far enough away with little rain forecast that it should be fine.

I'm intrigued by that given that the CG pitch was completely flooded in 1947.
Edit: It was two years before I was born, so no, I didn't witness it.

Maybe they've raised flood defenses and it needs to be higher now to breach them?
I notice Nottingham City Council are urging people to keep away from the Bestwood area now, as well.
Nothing to do with the weather. It’s just a dump.

Possibly there is an opportunity here, if a "freak wave" made the boat club disappear....

That's a fair point mate, but "highest level ever recorded" is misleading.

It is mind-boggling that despite being fully cogniscent of the function of flood plains either side of water-courses, it is still acceptable to build houses, retail parks, and other structures on them.
It is also mind boggling that every time flooding of the unfortunate house owners properties occurs the MPs and Councillors responsible for sanctioning such planning express sadness and concern that the flooding is happening... again, and again, and again.
It makes one suspiscious that there may be brown envelopes, undisclosed vested interests and corruption at play.
Still, only those unable to afford accommodation away from a developed flood plain are affected.
and as they are not rich and powerful no one in power or authority gives a flying f*** about their plight.

Having spent the Christmas period in Ruddington, where it has pissed it down every day, the amount of flooding around the village is possibly the worst I’ve seen, and the major contributing cause seems to be the lack of run-off with all the new housing estates that have shot up in the last 2-3 years.
The farmlands around Flawforth Lane and Wilford Road were basically a lake.

I haven't driven down past "Roman Fields" - the massive development to the far side of Bingham.
I wonder how those new housing estates are faring?
