Clyde, Derby and Bolton edit

@Add92: Hi, I see you have added stats for Derby and Bolton for this fellow. There is a fair amount of doubt as to whether this is the same player who was at Liverpool and Wednesday. Please see here for an external discussion a few years ago. A main point of issue is that J Miller who joined Derby was the top scorer in Scotland with Clyde in the preceding season, but other documentation indicates that the man who left Wednesday played for Airdrie and Bathgate in the same season. Obviously the common name and lack of DOB have muddled things further. What does ENFA say on the matter, do you have a subscription to view the full player details?

Hi, ENFA lists this Miller as playing for Clyde in 1894–95 and not Bathgate, cheers.--Add92 (talk) 14:20, 5 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
