8 d. ago Emile Smith Rowe’s instant impact for Fulham denies Manchester United

Ruben Amorim’s first response to Manchester United executives’ attempts last autumn to woo him was to ask to wait until the summer, granting time and space to know the club and players. This August’s season-opening matches were supposed to be the start, when he could be properly judged. Instead, he is already nine months into the job that enveloped five predecessors. Initial positive signs gave way to the muddle United closed last season within, casting a hungover shadow over attempts at a full reboot.After Rodrigo Muniz’s own-goal, claimed by Leny Yoro, Craven Cottage became that nine months in microcosm, Amorim’s team incapable of putting their opponent away. Bruno Fernandes’s uncharacteristic first-half penalty miss was redolent of a team full of psychological as well as tactical and personnel problems. Continue reading...

2 w. ago They’re among the best in British indie. So why have Field Music become a Doors cover band?

Faced with ‘catastrophic financial doom’ in a difficult industry, the Sunderland outfit explain why imitating Jim Morrison is their way to surviveFor years, Field Music playfully toyed with the idea of forming a hybrid cover band called AC/BGs, featuring one set of AC/DC songs done in a Saturday Night Fever-style and one set of rock-heavy Bee Gees numbers. “These things are a joke until they stop being a joke,” says David Brewis, one half of the Sunderland art-pop band.Another idea made it beyond a tour bus gag to become their new side hustle: a Doors tribute band called the Fire Doors. When the band announced it on Facebook last month, they received critical questions asking: why? The band’s response was a piercingly honest multi-page statement. Brewis wrote of Field Music’s sincere love of the band, the high levels of skill required to do such a job proficiently – and how doing one tribute gig a month could help their “dire finances”, having accepted that after nine albums, they h...
