    That looks uncannily like under my desk this morning when I had to replace the extension plug (mainly because the existing plug was so old that not only was half an inch of internal wire visible, but those exposed wires were practically load-bearing) and had me spending ages detangling the various extension cord, computer, monitor, printer and router cables

    So the big question is who pocketed all the twisty things that bound the wires together

    Does that mean our CL game that week can't be on the Tuesday? Does anyone know how they decide which matches are on Tuesdays and which on Wednesdays?
    I can't see any reason why the Brighton game shouldn't be moved to 2 April if Brighton get to the cup semi finals or if it has to be at Wembley.

    Welcome to my world (I am OCD about cabling not entangling etc) . :)

    Over 25 years ago I was in a group of 12 that lost LAN comms because
    (from what we could tell) somebody have have inadvertently banged loose
    an ethernet transceiver cable (in those days the classic ethernet bus
    architecture was in use - no commodity hubs/switches) .

    All of us spent 2 hrs untangling cabling, reconnecting, laying the cabling
    down neatly in the desk back trays etc. Apart from re-establishing comms,
    you become amazed at how much unused power cords, network cabling etc
    that you find.

    Could be worse, one place I worked had the novel idea of replacing a blown lightbulb in the server room by moving non-blown lightbulbs around until it got to the point I was having to go into the server room with one of those lights you use to find your car keys in the dark when I needed to find/untangle/reboot anything because nobody ever thought of buying new bulbs - and the main thing I found was those lights tend to give you an electric shock if you hold the button down for anything longer than three seconds

    Here's a thought: as three of those four matches are home matches, Sky want to be able to say they screened the first match at the new ST/\DIUM so have block booked our fixtures so their pundits can talk about another hoodoo, how we've never won a game there, how we've never won a local derby there, etc etc ad nauseum

    Rumours are circulating on Twitter that one of the test events will see Mike "****" Dean in a debate with a Spurs fan from Namibia

    This Spurs fan from Namibia...

    Increasing volume of rumours that the alarm testing, due to finish in the next couple of days,' will produce a positive outcome and we are likely to be 'green to go' very soon.

    The fact that the completion of the veil will coincide with this is going to confuse some and give others cause to link the two things and suggest that it was always about the externals. <doh>

    Still, if it means that the wild conspiracy theorists can return to whatever they did before this opportunity arose, it's all good by me....

    If Spurs are hiring it can't be that far away. Any new staff will need at least two weeks training, even for the test events. Elf and safety bullshit takes about a week nowadays.

    Who thinks Poch may get a touchline ban from the FA that will coincide with the move to the new stadium?

    Our stadium technology is so advanced there will be a hologram of Poch on the touchline while he is in the stand
