That's certainly how I read it, especially given what Stac has said before on Twitter.

I have no experience with deploying this type of software, but why would the programmers being based in Canada make software updates more complicated? With a system this big I would have thought that the software company would do their programming in-house with simulated data sets before sending an engineer to install and test it. So in terms of the programming, distance from the stadium would not be an issue. Happy to be informed. :)

Johnson Controls is a multinational company who merged with Tyco in 2016.

It could be that the panel installed for the stadium has it's R&D team based in Canada.

Wow - what a terrible video .... portrait, erratically swerving about, not focussing on anything long enough to see it ... a clear example of how not to capture video on a smart phone. If only they'd used landscape and very slowly panned from left to right.

I felt dizzy watching that.

At least it's a video of inside with the lights and screens working. I'm thankful for that person for doing it and it being posted. Probably not a professional? :cautious: People worried about quality over content.

Any truth to the rumours we're not getting in till next season?
As much truth as there is truth in the rumours we'll be in by March and also as much truth as there is truth in the rumours we'll be in by April, May etc. etc.

Spurs Stadium: Mace earnings revealed

Exclusive: Mace has been paid nearly £100m by Tottenham Hotspur for its role in the construction of the team’s new stadium so far.
A Spurs spokesman confirmed to Construction News that the contractor had earned the figure in its construction management role.
The club was responding to claims by a project insider, who spoke to CN on the condition of anonymity, that there was a public misconception about the way the project was being managed.

Could be anything, but...
“Recent inspections have progressed well and we remain in constant dialogue with the club, advising them on progress.”

Translated:
"We have put the third lightbulb in and the Holy Fuse of Antioch.
We are constantly arguing with the club about who is to blame and who will be paying for the delay but it won't be us and even if it is, it will only be a bit and that is f***ing that!
Shit happens. Ok?"

“The vast majority of money paid to Mace by Tottenham Hotspur are cost-reimbursable items required to fund organisational and logistic requirements, including preliminary works, waste removal, welfare facilities, traffic management and site hoardings."

So a bit misleading, as one might expect.

So the majority of that money wasn't paid to Mace it was paid through Mace.

Agreed @davidmatzdorf . I didn't want to post the full article directly into the thread but it's definitely one of those that starts off with a bit of a sexy headline and then it turns out that it's for portaloos and traffic lights!!

They seem to be relaying the pitch. I find it curious as there have been no games played there yet, but I suppose there could have been some damage by vehicles on during the build. Hey ho, I take as a positive sign that there is unlikely to be any more vehicle traffic inside the stadium before we open!
