    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.

    If it hit the arm across his chest, it is a handball even if accidental because he scored immediately afterwards. As nobody else was near him and nothing else happened, I don’t think there is an argument that he didn’t score immediately after the ball hit him. So, the only question is whether or not it hit his arm at all.

    Law 12.1
    It is an offence if a player:…

    scores in the opponents’ goal:

    directly from their hand/arm, even if accidental, including by the goalkeeper

    immediately after the ball has touched their hand/arm, even if accidental

    IFAB

    He chipped the keeper, ran round him and took two touches before scoring. Hows that immediately?

    Was having a look on your site for a ticket for Saturday, as far as i can see an old codger like myself can get a ticket for£6 is that correct, seems good value even for what we have had to suffer this year. I did have a ticket for our previous game at Palmerston but was the victim that got stuck for 2hrs between the bridge & Edinburgh so had to turn round and went to Kelty/Clyde game on my way back up the road. One of the very few grounds i have not been to so even given our poor form am looking forward to our visit. Is it ticket only or do you have cash gate as well?

    No, that should be £10

    Eta - you can buy tickets on the day but the ticket office is the opposite side of the ground from the away turnstile, so buying online is easier

    Tickets can be purchased online in advance via the Clyde FC Ticket Store, TicketCo Wallet app or in person at the Clyde Office on matchday. We recommend advance purchase to avoid the need to queue at the stadium.

    Stadium Entry: Clyde supporters should enter via turnstile 1 on the right (south-west corner) of the Main Stand or via the Main Door through into the Fanzone. Visiting supporters can also enter via the Main Door, or through turnstile 4 to the north-west of the Main Stand. Please have your ticket ready for scanning before entering the turnstile.

    Seating Arrangements: Home supporters will be seated in Sections C – J of the Main Stand. Please note that the back 2 rows of Section GF are reserved only for Gold Season Pass holders and hospitality. Away supporters will be seated in sectionad A and B of the Main Stand.

    Good info. Except turnstile 4 was shut when we arrived and the main door says season ticket holders only. The steward sent us to turnstile 1.

    Bull-shit they'd have sold 1500 of that shite :lol:

    I was fully expecting a nil-nil draw there. 

    Best episode ever, though, but for all the wrong reasons. 

    "the rap was worse than the game" from a 7 year old was brilliant!

    Just getting round to setting this up! I got the dvi to hdmi cable and its showing the xbox picture onto the wall perfect.

    Now I need sound! I want to connect my xbox1 to a fairly old surround sound Philips thing I have.

    The back of the Philips looks like this

    Can I get a hdmi to scart and put it in one of the xbox ports?20230210_151052.thumb.jpg.fe78ce6e718e065e0e519e0e28f2ceb2.jpg

    Two things - first, it looks like the SCART on the Philips is an output

    Second, doesnt the xbox1 only have one HDMI port? How will you get the picture through the hdmi to dvi and the sound into the amp?

    You can buy HDMI audio extractors like these

    https://www.amazon.co.uk/hdmi-audio-extractor/s?k=hdmi+audio+extractor

    That would let you connect the xbox audio to the red and white inputs on the amp.

    But, you're probably better going for something like this

    https://www.amazon.co.uk/Converter-Control-Aluminum-Digital-Toslink/dp/B09WMDF6CH/ref=asc_df_B09WMDF6CH/?tag=googshopuk-21&linkCode=df0&hvadid=570317715727&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=12173707414783470431&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=1007320&hvtargid=pla-1719137565807&psc=1

    That way you can use the HDMI to dvi for the video and use the SPDIF audio output on the xbox and convert it to red and white RCA for the amp

    Not sure if this is the best time to ask, but why is the Queen of the South Twitter account so slow with its updates?

    Hamilton Accies' account is tweeting about tonight's match moving into extra time while Queens are tweeting about an incident in the 77th minute.

    Because the tweets arent posted directly to twitter, they come from the live updates and whatever is supposed to be posting them isnt working properly

    Thanks Homer. I agree that my ppv options direct from clubs will be limited, I guess I'm looking at the Pixellot cameras, but just unsure how to access them.

    As I said, you should be able to buy the games direct from the club. 

    The SPFL used to stream the pixellot feeds but I'm not sure if they still do

    Could a young person help to outline my options? I'll miss a few games, so looking to watch live streaming of Scottish Championship games from England, US and Scotland. There seems to be a lot of betting website links that I'm reluctant to open. Happy to ppv or whatever if it's better quality and minimises risk.

    Am I even in the right forum?

    Im not sure how many Scottish championship games you'll get on ppv, although having just checked mine, it's added dedicated championship channels. 

    When you are in the US, the easiest way would be to just buy directly from the club website. The most reliable way in the UK would be to do the same but use a vpn
