I am amazed that this, a very important part of English football history, did not exist as an article until now. Although I don't have the 2002–03 copy of the Rothman's Football Yearbook that has been used to support most of the article, I dug out my 2009–10 season copy and the info is duplicated in there. Hook fact and all other data confirmed (although I'm about to go and correct a small error in the text). Length, creation date and referencing are all fine.
