Hahaha, I watched this game. Will make straightforward changes as I go (please revert if I inadvertently change the meaning) and post comments below....Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 13:10, 12 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, perfect! It helps give colour and context. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 19:47, 16 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

*Is it worthwhile at the first instance of mentioning Mariner, adding that he was centre forward? *:I have done that. The Rambling Man (Staying alive since 2005!) 09:32, 16 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Overall, though, very little to complain about - the above are minor nitpicks that may or may not have fixes and am trying to give it as big a shove towards FAC as possible....Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 22:04, 12 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Casliber thanks, and sorry for not getting back to you sooner on this, Covid-19 and all that. I've got one oustanding issue above, that of other pundits and their thoughts pre-match which I will get to in due course. Otherwise I've addressed and/or responded to the other points you made. Thanks for the review. The Rambling Man (Staying alive since 2005!) 09:32, 16 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Overall:

Pass or Fail: - great, well done. I have a vague memory of the extra care in strips was they had to account for people who still had black and white tellies but...do they still do it now as that would be really silly (did Ipswich play anyone with a red strip this year and what happened. Or when Everton plays Man U....Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 20:06, 16 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks Cas. Ipswich have played in orange quite a bit, but not red to any extent. I'm still investigating whether it was just Arsenal's reluctance to play in the same strip they lost in twice previously (going back decades!) or it was down to the shorts...! I'll keep working on the article, but thanks for your review. When I take it to FAC I look forward to further such scrutiny! Cheers.
