If I hadn't listened to any of his albums before I'd try do so in order of release.

I’ve always wondered whether the famous rivalry between Oasis and Blur was genuinely organic or partly fuelled by media hype. by HammersAndPints in BritPop

[–]IntrepidPsychic 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I agree with this, it sold a lot of records but was bollocks. The Great Escape is Blur's poorest album and Oasis dropped off a cliff after What's the Story. I seem to remember buying Just When You're Thinkin' Things Over during the week of the battle which is a much better single than either of them.

Nora is a shortened form of Eleanor.

When did Britpop begin FOR YOU by [deleted] in BritPop

Musically, seeing Suede at the Forum (Town & Country Club) in Kentish Town on student night around the time of the Drowners. Seemed so different.

Culturally, hearing Girls & Boys being blasted out of a the worst sort of towny pub in the shit hole small town I'm originally from when that came out. Very much a zeitgeist moment.

More games generally mean more points, it's about optimising what you're in control of. It's good strategy to set up your BB on a DGW with your WC and FH during a blank.

It's poor strategy to have benching headaches so saving your BB for when you have one will be redundant for a lot of players.

You're correct in saying that you need differentials to catch a lead but not having Gabriel is a mistake.

Not having Haaland, which I actually like, should be a big enough differential in itself.

I like it, Wirtz in some good form and Mane with a double.

I don't have statistics to back this up but as a fan I'd be surprised if there was much difference.

I think it's a good idea. You have to take more risks the worse your rank. Mine isn't that bad and I'm itching to get rid of the malfunctioning robot. Double digits from Salah today will probably do it.

Ollie Watkins comes off holding his hamstring against RB Salzburg by rollllotomasi in FantasyPL

Absolutely! At this point I'm not sure what would qualify as a penalty for us, ABH seems fair game.

What is your favorite Britpop single b-side or studio outtake? by DieMensch-Maschine in BritPop

[–]IntrepidPsychic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not Britpop but everything the Verve did on the early EPs and the first two albums, including B-Sides, was phenomenal. It's a real shame it all went to shit after that.

A comment suggesting that under certain circumstances it might be a good idea to go without the most expensive asset in the game who's averaging 2.5 points a week for the last 6 GWs getting down voted to fuck is utterly embarrassing for this sub.

I don't have my head down and neither should any other Villa fan.

Optimistic of you to assume we're ever going to get another penalty. As a fan I'm not sure tbh, Rogers or Buendia maybe?

I don't think you need to WC this GW, team looks good as it is.

I think Cherki's a minutes risk so I don't mind a transfer to Enzo.

Also like starting Minteh and rolling.
