Just seen some pretty awful pictures of flooding in York.

What are the odds of the friendly being called off?

Thanks for that.

Seen a lot worse than that, but I bet the girlyball club won't want their pitch churning up.

More weather warnings for rain on Wednesday in Yorkshire.

Would guess it's looking unlikely if further rain is forecast?

Bit of a shame if the game is off, was looking forward to it but cleaning up after the flooding is obviously more important. Hope everyone is alright in York!

If it does go ahead it will be mainly fringe players in this and the Donny game with a small, more senior squad for the Rovers game. http://m.hulldailymail.co.uk/Hull-FC-fr ... story.html

Where are York playing there home games at the moment?

Bootham Crescent this year I think.

bootham crescent is a little bit further away from both rivers and should escape the worst of the flooding. however i believe the last york city game was postponed, so signs are the pitch might not hold up too well. any more significant rain would probabaly see it postponed
