Totally serious and if it falls on the Tranny fans at the weekend, it's not my fault.

Bang a couple of nails in and paint some numbers on bits of board with holes in.....when  a team scores hang the number 1 etc from the nail.... sorted.....with only two games left and Parkin missing you'll probably only need 0 for our lot.  To make it more visually exciting use different colour paints.

This is why I put 'electronic' in the thread title, Reg  Cheesy

I did read the word "electronic", but this would imply some kind of power supply which it will most certainly lack......hence my more low tech solution for those punters who don't know the score.

Who asked you Andy King? The first thing to do is ignore any notices that tell you to switch off the current before touching anything then ignore any signs that say DANGER or do not open. Especially ignore all signs that say DANGER OF DEATH. All of these signs are only there to make things more difficult. You must then go and wash your hands and not dry them this is so that you dont get any dirt into the electrics. Finally you must pull all the wires out and randomly connect them all together until it starts working.

If it is fucked ... give me a shout.  I'm pretty decent with the old computers, and happy to lend a hand.  I'm only around in the morning, mind ...

Do you think if we get Sonicyouth to rig the scoreboard in our favour. Lets say 3-0 to us and then we lose that the result on the scoarboard will be the final one that counts. It is the same as in golf it is the score thats written on your card that counts even if you can prove that you made a mistake and it is not the actual score.
