factually correct. I like the coverage in which the match itself is the essential section but you've provided the needed background and also a useful aftermath. Although you are evidently a City fan, you have presented a completely neutral point of view. The article is certainly stable. I like the table containing the match statistics but unfortunately there is only the one image (of old
Wembley) and it would be great if a couple more could be found. --

published about the club. Other than the inestimably valuable work of Gary James, there's little out there about this period. For example, Eric
Thornton's 1969 history of the club gives the match little more than a sentence. There aren't that many books about Bolton around. There are two (both by the

I've added a couple of images of grounds used in the earlier rounds. Both are on
Commons and over 100 years old, so should be OK. The only way I'd be able to get a player image is by claiming the photographer is unknown and tagging it pd-old-70. I'd be very dubious about doing that as there would be

The copyedit is finished and my main advice here is to watch the combination of a comma with "and" which is generally unnecessary and looks untidy when the "and" is introducing the final component of a list. Another point is the frequency of repeated links as each player only needs one. Re the two

Sorry about the delay in taking this further but I've been on holiday. Thanks for the comments above and, though I note what you say about the league positions, I think it does add very useful information about the quality of the teams to be more precise, although I would not complicate it by going

Newspaper-wise, yes, I've been using the

I wish it were that easy. This final is probably the most overlooked involving either club, perhaps due to the high profiles of the 1923 White Horse final and Bert

I appreciate your difficulties with sources about 1920s sport and I think you've dome extremely well with what you have found, though you are probably right that much more detail will be needed for a feature review. My request for a Bolton source was an ideal only; it's not a necessity at this

If you can address these last three points, I will move this to GA. Referring to the criteria, it meets the well-written condition after all the copyediting and it doesn't breach any manual of style requirements that I can see. It is very well sourced, as I've said earlier, and is certainly

I've added a paragraph about league form, but as it is based on statistical information it sails close to the synthesis side of things. I'm not sure about precise league positions. The table at the time of the final is a bit of a distortion as it is affected by games in hand, and to use final
