I'm not sure why I should "forget" anything, just because you say so.

If the fans want to justify keeping a piece of obsolete equipment they need good reasons:
One, is of course, that is an iconic piece of club history and deserves keeping in its own right.
The added connection with Danny is another. It would take little effort to set the clock hand and add a teams name. It is not a question of comparing the premature passing of our beloved players nor of failing to move on.

I'm sure a sponsor could be found to pay the few quid for a paint touch up every few years.

Hth

I didn't say I felt strongly, I made a justification for keeping an obsolete piece of equipment. If you want to keep something, you find as many reasons why you should as possible.
I agree that volunteers do a fine job, I've volunteered my time, money and sponsorship many times in the past.
A question for you, if you want to keep the clock as it is how do you propose to maintain the paintwork? Over to you.

Have we a date we are going to have this new scoreboard for, as that original message was from April, just before the Wednesday night fixture against Barrow.

Regardless of when and where the new electronic scoreboard is installed, we should definitely keep our original scoreboard. It's a very important part of Cougar Park, a constant as long as I've been going down (late 70s). I for one love it and would be very sad to see it removed.

Get rid. Nice new one needed.

Not sure when the scoreboard was added to Lawkholme but it must have been added around the time of our one and only Challenge Cup final appearance (sure Lawkholme Len will be able to give an exact date)..,,,a massive achievement for such a small club that (apart from the two jerseys hidden away in the upstairs bar) is woefully under represented at our historic ground....keep just the the clock at 37 in memory of the lads who got us to Wembley
