The home teams arent going to allow away sides to get the cash from streaming it locally though are they.
Just now, Rugster said:I don’t think as the away team we are allowed to stream it in the uk as Partick have the right to sell it on PPV.
Both very good points. I hadnt checked the fixture before I posted, just assumed it was a Falkirk home game

I've subscribed to Now TV to watch The Good Doctor and noticed the final series being trailed. Has anyone stuck with it?
Yeah, Ive been watching the final series on and off. Its finished airing in the states but I've got like 6 or 7 episodes to watch.
Its been ok, but nothing more. Im hoping they'll tie things up in a decent way at the end

Is the FalkirkTV stream only for overseas viewers today?

Decided to buy my season ticket a couple of days ago. I like to print off a pdf copy in case of mobile phone malfunction at the turnstile ( or more likely my bad eyesight and stubby fingers causing cock-up), I notice it says event commences May '23 finishes Dec' 23 which seems a bit odd for a league season that runs from August 23 to May 24. What's that all about. Last season's ticket had the correct start and end dates.
Full season of tickets are only on sale until December , then half season tickets are sold.

Definitely this.
Despite being mistakenly (in my opinion) remembered for his "North East Revolution" , the majority of Connolly's signings from the Northern League were duds who made a handful of appearances before being shipped back to obscurity.
In Connolly's first game in charge he lined up with:
David Mathieson, Paddy Atkinson*, Andy Martin*, Andy Aitken, Sandy Hodge, Jon Sunderland*, Denis Boyle, Tony Nelson*, Mark Weir, Warren Hawke, & Peter Weatherson* with Dean Muir*, Phil Nixon*, Bryan Caldwell, Ross Atkinson* and Tommy Muirhead on the bench.
* denotes Connolly signing.
If I recall Martin, Nelson & Ross Atkinson were all back in Geordieland before Christmas and a revolving door of players would come in one month and were gone by the next having been deemed unsuitable - Steve Preen, Paul Hollier, Jarod Suddick, Kane Young, Stuart Hepple etc. By mid-season Connolly was recruiting mainly from Scotland bringing in experienced mainstays such as Des McKeown, Paul Kinnaird, John O'Neill, Colin Scott & Ronnie McQuilter. All players who were nearing the end of their careers other than Scott (terrible record with injuries who arrived as a back-up) and O'Neill, and none of whom I would imagine have commanded much of the investment Kunter refers to.
Connolly's success really began when he stopped, to quote Kunter, "thinking outside the box". The "Connolly Revolution" has gained an increased mythical status as some kind of genius plan that was based solely on recruiting unknowns from the English non-league game as the years have passed.
It wasn't.
Ah, Tony Nelson. The player I was the most wrong about! During pre-season, I thought he was exactly the kind of dig we needed in midfield. Sent off in, I think, his first competitive game and never seen again

Smart watches, what the best yins about?
Also not apple.I have a ticwatch. This is my seocnd one, I really like them.
Has Android wear on it, but also has two screens. The lcd screen is used most of the time, so it just tells the time, which means you get days and days of battery life

I think the last time they were revealed at the Shirt Draw was the 2018 draw for the Centenary Shirt.
I dont know. I just know I asked the same question last week
In other news, Cochrane has signed for two years

Very happy with that.

Has the kit designs for next season been released yet?
I thought they were usually shown about the time of the sponsorship draw. I can’t remember seeing them this year though.
They have not. They haven't been released at the shirt draw for a few years.

Finished 100%. I like how the game tried to do a poignant moment with some music in the background here. It might have landed if I hadn't spent the previous 30 hours in game trying to hunt animals that didn't show up, or didn't have the right number of stars, or did have the right number stars but didn't after I'd shot them.
~40 more missions to gold, ~30 more animals to study and skin and then I'll finally have the platinum and can do my best to forget the game ever existed.

According to the report in today's Standard, which is maybe old news, he expects to have some signing/re-signing news later this week. Also like his carrot and stick approach to pre-season, players have been given training schedules for the break, if they report back fit they get an extra week off, the ones who don't report fit he says he will work them really hard to show what standards he expects. They have had an extra day off yesterday so today will be the day when some know their fate about being released or not.
It's only old news in that they got it from his post match interview on the website

I would say that's pretty decent. Will certainly cope with what you're doing with no problems

Great stuff Harry - a goal and an assist - now just sign on the dotted line on this wee bit of paper that Skyline has in his briefcase - you know it makes sense!
Cochrane has played really well, but it was McGrory with the assist for the second.

Aye the arcade gun games had great ports back in the day, time crisis and crisis zone were fantastic on the ps 2 as well and as you said the dreamcast version of HotD was top notch
Always remember a machine in booths in glasgow centre, it was a light gun game but the whole screen was the arcade and you stood in a frame and the charcter copied your movements lile ducking and hiding,
You were a cop as per and you had to hide behind crates and pillars etc, but unlike time crisis it wasnt a pedal you pressed, you actually had to do the movement of hiding lol, was a cracking game and the sweat was pishing off you after it
Yes! I remember that too. Do not remember whatever it was called though.

And House of the dead same shit but with Zombies.
And on the rare occasion that there would be a Tekken machine I'd be on it for hours.
House of the dead for me too. Side note, it had a cracking dreamcast port with light guns.
Early doors, Pacland in the local chippie, Commando at the holiday park and Kick and Run with the pedal in the local arcade.

Paton - Another fanny that can’t find his supporters. What was on his top anyway?
Something non-racist.
Is that the first time Todd, Wilson and Cochrane have started together? They totally dominated the midfield in the first half.

Yeah, I watched the last episodes at the weekend. The last few episodes are good but I wasn't keen on the ending (no pun intended)
