Not sure what you mean Mr Wilks, try asking Mrs Wilks, they are usually better at this kind of thing.
If you look at an extension lead the correct way around, the lead for it always comes out to the right, never seen one coming from the left.

Re: Dull man's club.

Something I’ve noticed whilst looking for an extension lead

Why do they all have the cord coming out of the unit from the right?

When the socket it is being plugged into is located to the left it looks untied when the lead is having to be “doubled back”

Just because the graphics have it as Foster wide and Odobert central, that doesn’t mean that’s how they will line up

They just place them as a “best guess” based on previous. Doesn’t mean it’s going to be like that

If an attacker fouls a defender in the build up to a goal they can go back and sort that out retrospectively. So VAR can change a decision (or lack thereof) if the roles are reversed.
