But the guy is claiming it is an example of what has happened at the stadium.

But I could staple someone's cat to my garage wall and post it on twitter as an illustration of what's happening in the stadium

Well yea, clearly we don’t know if he’s talking BS or not, but considering that we do know for a fact that the only reason the stadium is delayed is because of the wiring of the security system, then it seems a fairly believable version of events? If not that then what else?

Would we pin or nail down something with cables, surely it would be screwed? For later access and the like.

Levy even thought of cat flaps. He's a genius.

As some one who had no idea what trunking and lidding is, I found the following pictures helpful.
The trunking (left) is where the cables go and then they are enclosed with the lid (right). It seems absurd to think that the cables are being damaged when "lidding" as that suggests they haven't bought the right lidding and are having to nail something random on.
I could imaging that occasionally a cable could be damaged if the trunking was too small for all the cables inside and it was a fight to get the lid on, but for this to be a stadium wide problem stretches the imagination.

In the tweet they are talking of it being malicious sabotage and having seen similar on previous large construction jobs, as far as I can make out they are saying that the cable is laid, then circuit tested and then at some point later on the lidding team comes along and install the lids and its only after this that the circuits are tested again and this is when the problems have been found, so all fingers are pointing at the lidding team as they were the last to have access to the exposed cables. Also they say its small pins (i'm assuming like needles) rather than nails being knocked into them.
All speculation but it passes the time

The Polish electricians used metric measurements for everything while the Brits used imperial ones. That's my guess.

What does it say, it’s asked by me to sign up and register with them to see anything more than a nice juicy headline.

Whether these stories are true or not, have there ever even been so many rumours about other clubs new stadiums? Here? Abroad? Wembley?
It feels like we’re having to deal with a lot more than other clubs have had to deal with. Sabotage, laziness etc. Really is a struggle.

First club stadium built since the explosion of social media?
If all these rumours were even half true the stadium would never be built

The ever-expanding clamishness of the internet is partly to blame I would say. And it won't be getting better when the next stadium build happens. There will be stories of devil worshipping ceremonies and goat fudging in the centre circle (which could be combined for convenience).
In reality, I would be amazed if there weren't delays in a project this size. Move along, nothing to see here.
