Error

There seems to be duplicate amount of boxes at the bottom of this article, for no apparent reason? Mark272 11:20, 22 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Match venues

Dale added venues for home matches nearly a year ago, is there any good source for this? [1][2] Conscious 18:37, 22 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Conference North and South

I think there should be individual articles for these leagues for the 2007-08 season, as the standard of football in lower leagues seems to be improving.

Managerial changes

User:HornetMike seemed to make a suggestion earlier today that caretakers maybe ought to be italicised when they take over fully to show they were in charge. How about we amend the appointment date to the date he took over as caretaker and add two references. One for the day he took over as caretaker. And the second when he was officially announced as the new boss? Peanut4 17:05, 2 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think this should be handed slightly differently to List of English Football League managers by date of appointment. The policy you suggest is what's done over there, but I'm not sure it works here. I think providing the permanent date is more useful, as it's a given generally that the caretaker has been in place since the departure of the previous manager. When this is not the case, I think we should still have the full appointment date, but have a second reference stating "so and so became caretaker manager on *date* two days after the departure of Mr whatever". The other reason I'm slightly uneasy about using the caretaker date is that the table tends to use dates for when a replacement has been officially confirmed, I think this might be a bit inconsistent.

Youth teams

Should we not add the results of the youth teams such as the U21s to this article. Darryl.matheson (talk) 19:41, 4 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Phil O'Donnell's death

How is his death clasified as a subject of English football? It can be classified as Scottish football and British football, but not English football. Kingjeff (talk) 02:59, 19 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

He has played in English football. Take a glance through the other deaths, because many are similar. Peanut4 (talk) 14:56, 19 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

??

I'm not big on Football terminology, but under "End of Season Movement", this doesnt make any sense:

Champions: 1 from Manchester United or Chelsea Champions League 2008/9 Qualifiers : Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal and Liverpool UEFA Cup 2008/9 Qualifiers :Tottenham Hotspurs, ::one from Everton or Aston Villa and 1 from Portsmouth or Cardiff City Relegated to The Championship : Derby County and 2 from Birmingham City, Reading, Fulham and Bolton Wanderer
