  • Coming to promote this, the hook fact does not seem to have an inline citation and I can't find it mentioned in the next source cited. Would not a more interesting hook involve the fact that he helped Walsall to two successive promotions? Cwmhiraeth (talk) 05:34, 7 May 2018 (UTC)
The ref was the one at the end of the paragraph, the one closest was added later so I've added an extra direct cite to the fact. The two successive promotions is an interesting fact, but is it that rare? There are numerous occasions of teams doing this over the years, the substitute fact makes him the one and only person to do that. What's your thoughts? Kosack (talk) 05:52, 7 May 2018 (UTC)
I agree - the current hook is more hooky. violet/riga [talk] 22:04, 7 May 2018 (UTC)
Restoring tick for the original hook then, based on violetriga's review. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 08:30, 8 May 2018 (UTC)
