Removal of reference to emnity from Gillingham fans

[edit]

I'm not that bothered either way, TBH, but I just thought it was worth mentioning that so many years after he left the club, Gills fans still dislike the bloke - for example see this match report from September 2002 in which the writer states

I'd question whether it's notable, lots of ex-players are called Judases; also whether it fits the Neutral Point Of View policy, but backed up with a reference like the one above I wouldn't remove it again. (PS: If he wants to be popular with City fans he needs to start scoring a few more goals!) Beve 22:23, 2 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Appearances and goals while at Hull City?

[edit]

It looks like the SoccerBase stats page for Fozzie has 26(9) appearances and five goals (which is what the infobox reflected until I changed it a bit ago), while the HDM article (and the club OWS Forster Heads to Brighton) has 37 appearances and six goals. I'd be inclined to believe the OWS; any other thoughts?  DOONHAMER | BANTER  21:18, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Found the discrepancy, wasn't counting FA Cup appearances.  DOONHAMER | BANTER  21:23, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Brighton & Hove Albion

[edit]

Some IP with a history of vandalism added poorly-written and uncited text to this section. I added the uncited-section and story templates.  DOONHAMER | BANTER  23:19, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed! I've rewritten the section, and added references... don't think there's anything more to add on his career at Brighton until he actually plays for them. I've added {{expand-section}} back into the Brentford, Birmingham, Reading section, as Forster most prolific period was while at Reading, yet this forms one of the smallest parts of the article. robwingfield «TC» 23:42, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Very good, Hull City and B&H sections flow much better now. I might try to find more for the Brentford etc. section to help flesh it out. I'm not skilled enough with WP formatting to try to fix the overlap between the expansion template and the infobox. Best to just get more good material and get rid of the template.  DOONHAMER | BANTER  00:07, 27 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Put Reading into their own section and fleshed it out a bit.  DOONHAMER | BANTER  00:36, 27 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
