The Football League resumed in August 1946 using the same fixture list as the abandoned 1939/40 season. They did play the FA Cup in 1945/46 though.

The Meadow Lane end is the one side of the ground I've never watched a game from. It looked awful when they left a void there, especially so considering it was when we rose into the top flight. The mid 90s was a complete contrast, looked great in those first few seasons after it was built as it was always well populated and there used to be a chap in there who played a bugle whenever we got a corner/free kick etc.
