Lead edit

  • "The top two teams of the 1997–98 Football League Third Division, Carlisle United and Walsall, gained automatic promotion to the Second Division, while the teams placed from third to sixth place" - repetition of "teams"
  • "The top two teams of the 1997–98 Football League Third Division," - wrong season
  • "Chesterfield won the match 2–0 with goals from Tony Lormor and Phil Robinson to gain promotion back to the third tier of English football five seasons after being relegated." - maybe mention the goals were scored in the first half?
  • Perphaps wikilink the term manager to the appropriate article only on the first mention?

Route to the final edit

  • "The second leg was held at Gigg Lane in Bury three days later." - needs verification with a reliable source
  • "Tony Rigby put the home team ahead with a 20 yards (18 m) volley" - can be changed to yard or reword part of the sentence

Background edit

  • "Bury had played in the Third Division since being relegated in the 1991–92 season." - shouldn't that be fourth tier since it was called the Fourth Division that season?
  • The term manager might want to be wikilinked only on the first mention

Summary edit

  • Wikilink Wembley Stadium to the appropriate article
  • "Kelly saved attempts from both Robinson and second-half substitute Kevin Davies" - elucidate please on what saving attempts mean

Post-match edit

  • manager player should be one wikilink not two

References edit

  • Reference 3 "Miller brings Rovers their reward" is missing the author
  • Reference 12 "Keegan spurns Fox offers" is missing mention it is taken from Newspapers.com
