As regular posters on here will know, I'm currently based out in Dubai and having serious Rangers withdrawl symptoms.......especially with our recent hot streak.
Anyway, as I'm sure you can imagine, this week had me full of excitment with the prospect of 2 live games available via an online stream. With this in mind I went to the mall yesterday morning to pick up a cable to link my laptop to my TV. Went back home and settled down to watch the Villa vs Wolves match, followed by Spurs vs Stoke. After the Spurs match I hooked up my laptop to the TV and tried to log on to the internet. To my horror I realised my internet connection was down and preceded to have a serious sense of humour failure with frequent blue language and child like tantrums. This was much to the displeasure of my new girlfriend who went to bed in order to avoid my childish behaviour!!!!
Despite spending the full 90 minutes praying and messing about with my laptop, the internet connection only returned for a 5 minute period when we were 3-2 up. It then died again and hasn't come back since.
I called my service provider this morning and they have informed me that the fault will take at least 48 hours to fix. I am now sweating as to whether I will miss Tuesday nights game too!
In case you are wondering, this email is being sent from my boss's house where I am being forced to work from until my home/office connection is fixed.
Not fishing for sympathy, just thought you lot might like to have a good old laugh at my misfortune. Also if anybody has a link for highlights of the match I would really appreciate it if they could share it with me (other than BBC iPlayer which generally doesn't work outside of the UK).
