Cutty Sark - Why it caught fire

Someone left a vacuum cleaner on for two days.

It overheated and caught fire.

The rest you know.

I blame the parents

No, not Pardew's fault. Blame the board for cutting his cleaning budget.

Liked the bit about the security log found in a bin by the police that had the security guards on site inspecting the thing when the fire brigade where there putting it out and they entered no comments (having gone off home several hours early)
