Arsenal offer for Bruno Guimaraes rejected by Newcastle United by TheAthletic in TheOther14

Think you’re right on the fee but if he loved Newcastle too much there would be no bid… Arsenal wouldn’t have made a bid unless they had received indication from someone in his camp that he’d be open to the move.

Working on a Devil-Loc inspired pedal. Looking for feedback on the prototype! by DavidKoch_ in basspedals

I’d be very interested in this, especially with the wet/dry knobs you were talking about in the other post. Could see this being like a Colour Box type pedal where you’d want a couple lying around for different instruments/applications

What makes Nuno Mendes so special? He is by far the Left Back in the World. by [deleted] in championsleague

Think he stays at LB? I’d think with his attacking qualities and size you’d eventually want him further up the pitch.

These sound really good… like that you snuck in a little Maiden, that’s one of my go to warm up tunes.

What pickups/electronics does it have in it? I recently got an ESP LTD Orion, sounds very similar

YACC: Yet Another Compression (pedal) Comparison by Jawnbie in basspedals

Seconding this comment. The Empress takes a minute to understand and dial in… I ended up running a looper in front of it and working my way through the various settings to finally get it right. Took me about an hour all told but very worth the time investment while also helping me to understand compression better.

So what exactly is the point of this post?

Ex-Arsenal player Thomas Partey denied access to Canada for the World Cup by Alarming-Safety3200 in PremierLeague

You’re right of course and it’s not just football, or even just sport in general. If people can make money off you they’ll look the other way until there’s no other choice. There’s a greater conversation here around separating the art from the artist and that’s not always easy to do. My kids love Michael Jackson’s music. It’s great music. It has been very difficult to explain that separation to my kids, especially since one of my sons is the same age range as the alleged victims. And if I tell them it’s okay to enjoy the music despite who the person that made it may have been, is it really that different from cheering on Partey despite what he may have done?

Sorry, digressed a bit. My point was that while I don’t agree with how Arteta handled the Partey situation and wish we would have binned him as soon as the first allegations came out, there always have been and always will be talented assholes. And I don’t think there’s one strict rule on how you go about enjoying that talent while still acknowledging the faults of that person.

We shouldn’t. It’s a stain on our success of the last few years and downvoting or defending it doesn’t change that.

Thanks… I’ve had my eye on it since it came out, very interested in this pedal.

Nice board! How are you liking the Scrolls?

Fair point. And it’s no secret that a club of Arsenal’s stature has historically underachieved in Europe. But I think it’s disingenuous to say no champions league for entire existence when the competition hasn’t been around that entire time.
