It's because that man of the match scam program takes all the other things off.

It kept going to a black screen for a few seconds when they started to show a stream of the match too.
I think it crashed as they never showed the team screen after half time which has the time on it.

Bring the old calculator back I say I was just about to start a post about this.... very annoying. We have a new all singing and all dancing scoreboard and yet the time isn't shown. Surely they can programme the board so that the time stays on. They are too busy trying to rake money in from the MOTM phone-in. Come on... sort it out!

The clock is like my comfort blanket when we're winning and I'm wishing the time away!
The bloody thing didn't come on at all in the second half apart from a few seconds after the goal when it said 75 minutes.
The screen us all well and good but whatever they put on it whether it be action the team line ups or motm they should always leave the clock on.
PS they aren't allowed to run it after 90 minutes.

If the clock isn't on all the time then it's a total waste of money in my book, and quite frankly, totally useless.
There wasn't one person there tonight who wouldn't have preferred to have the old scoreboard back.

They should have put the old clock/scoreboard at the back of the South Stand, high up above where the away fans are sat to the right of the control box.
United have a couple of the crappy ones in their stands
I don't know why but squeeky bum time nowadays requires constant looking at the clock!
How did we cope for 125 years without one! (Although there would have been an old fashioned clock somewhere in the ground? Wasn't there one at the Vic between the Boothen and Butler Street stands in the derelict corner plot?)

Oh yes there was. It was a proper old watch face type fucker with a big hand and little hand. I had a referees watch for Christmas once when I was a kid. Still got it and Im going to have to resurrect it. Age of modern technology!!!!!

Maybe Pulis wants it to be off so the players dont get clock watching late on in games?!

Being in block 17 the only thing I can read on the bloody thing is the clock, people were leaving last night with over 10 minutes to go thinking there was only a couple of minutes left.

Maybe its a case of total incompetence from the tools who are meant to operate it?
The time is the SINGLE MOST IMPORTANT thing that ever appears on the thing! Also get rid of this man of the match crap..are we really that desperate for another 50p from people..who actually votes anyway?
Oh and Robbo 10 who the fuck are you talking about in your post? There are loads of clubs called "United", including some arrogant pricks up the road who think that they have exclusive use of the name, you aren't pandering to their over inflated ego's are you?

Surely it should be capable of showing the time all the time even when the man of the match scam is showing?
It's surprising how many times you look at the scoreboard for the time, i must have looked hundreds of times even when i thought it wouldn't be showing the time!
And why can't the injury time count down too? I'm sure it's not beyond modern technology to key in how many minutes are given and count down the seconds. I know if any further time is added that wouldn't be shown but it would give you a good idea of how long was left.

i got the impression that there was something wrong with it.
I'm sure in the first half it looked as though it got to 45 minutes about 1-2 minutes early. maybe thats why they turned it off in the 2nd half?
or maybe Pulis doesn't want the players clock watching?
