I'm reasonably confident this article is of GA quality, but it's my first stab at doing an article on an individual match, so please let me know if I've lurched a bit too much into journalistic match report mode at any point :-) -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 10:13, 8 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Coincidentally I've recently been working on a match article for the first time; Struway and I have been expanding 1956 FA Cup Final. I'm not sure what I'd consider as GA or FA quality for a match article yet, but we might gain pointers from looking at each other's work.
  • I don't see why the Football League website is linked in the infobox.
  • I'd imagine geography is a large reason for the disparity in fan numbers, if you can find a source for it.
  • but left out captain Carl Bradshaw and first-choice goalkeeper Roy Carroll, who had missed both semi-final matches following an appendix operation - makes it sound like they both had the appendix operation.
  • was described as "one of Wembley's great goals" - might be best to directly attribute the quote. Oldelpaso (talk) 14:42, 10 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    • I've amended the points you mention, haven't found a source to confirm that geography led to such a small ticket update by Wigan fans. I only remember that they kept sending more and more of their allocation back, which got snapped up by Gills fair-weather glory-hunters fans :-)

For balance, should we also say what happened to Wigan in the season(s) following? :-) --Jameboy (talk) 22:40, 13 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Done :-) -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:13, 14 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
