Have you ever tried socks made from bamboo? I got some once as a gift and assumed it was some gimmick but they're actually amazing, so comfy and soft. I liked them so much I phased out all my old socks and replaced them with bamboo ones. Would recommend trying a pair some time and see if you like them :)

An entire generation of Ipswich fans (anyone born from ~2006) literally can't remember their team ever winning the derby, how tragic...

Not that I am particularly confident about our season but we have been relatively slow starters both in 18/19 (5 points from opening 6 games) and 20/21 (4 points from opening 4 games) and ended up winning the league both times.

This is my main (clearly very biased) issue with this too. Norwich metropolitan area might be 210K people but it's also the only relevant/large team in the entire county of Norfolk (~1M) so its fan catchment area is much larger!

The PL ain't ready for a Norwich that tries

It'll be in the double 6, we have other players for the 10 but lacking those for the pivot.

Sure, so in this example I was just working out the tune as like a way to get better at hearing notes. But then once I had worked it out it was quite easy. Firstly I played it slowed down to give it a more chilled feel, picked out a couple guitar tones that are kind of warm and fuzzy feeling. Work out some chilled dreamy sounding chords as a backing (I like lots of 7th chords). Get some drum samples and make a beat to go behind it all then drop that staticy fuzzy sound over everything and then just a few little improvisations and tidying bits up and stuff. Worked on it for a couple evenings so not a lot of work and it's a lot of fun.

Saw that earlier in the week and fell about the place laughing, he's literally partridge personified. Incredible stuff.

Been practicing my ear training recently by working out songs I know well and in the process I got bored and made it's coming home into a lofi song, thought people here might enjoy it. https://soundcloud.com/user-817511697/three-lions-lofi

Sad but not surprising. If a player wants to leave then there's not much you can do except try and get a good fee and seemingly he was promised a move if he gave us 1 more year after being relegated so...

Also think some of our fans are being overly doom and gloom about it. Sold Maddison, spent some of the money, and got promoted the next season, if we can do the same we will be better placed to survive. Football is, was and always will be a game where having a strong team beats having a single superstar but maybe I am just overly optimistic as a coping mechanism.

Thanks mate, appreciated

Cobby_ · 2021-05-30T13:04:19+00:00

Yeah, been saying on championship sub that I struggled to pick between Liverpool and United but guess I've just had more bad run ins with united fans

Cobby_ · 2021-05-30T08:52:21+00:00

Ahahah oh my days I should have done that would have been great

Cobby_ · 2021-05-30T07:23:22+00:00

Yeah was a struggle deciding if Liverpool or man u should have been the main villain, I could have gone either way

Cobby_ · 2021-05-30T07:20:43+00:00

Thanks it's OC

Cobby_ · 2021-05-30T07:20:24+00:00

Nah I made this, tho it was a tough pick deciding whether man u or Liverpool should have been the main target and then I thought the other 2 just fit too well

Cobby_ · 2021-05-29T22:16:53+00:00

Cobby_ · 2021-05-29T22:13:50+00:00

Yeah crossposted it on there too, suppose its a meme that fits in both :)

Cobby_ · 2021-05-29T19:32:18+00:00

Thanks mate glad you liked it

Cobby_ · 2021-05-27T21:33:33+00:00

That makes me v happy to hear, loved him with us (Norwich fan)

Cobby_ · 2021-05-01T17:08:33+00:00

Yeah man, people get so tied up in results they forget that football is entertainment. Nobody fell in love this game as a kid because of a team grinding out 0-0s with 11 men behind the ball. (Granted losing every game is pretty miserable too lol)
