I thought this thread would be about the clock on TV showing how much time is remaining. I recall once on 5AA, KG was dead against knowing how much time was remaining.

A caller rang to ask KG why he didn't like the idea, KG said, "I prefer not having any idea". The caller replied, "That's obvious KG" ... went right past KG and through to the keeper :)

:lol:
Just on that topic though, I am also against the clock showing exactly how much time is remaining in games. The idea of "time on" creates more suspense.
I'm gonna sit back, crack the top off a Pale Ale, and watch the Double Blues prevail

No, they countdown to the end of 90 mins and then display how much injury time there is
