[edit]Following the normal logic 1973 FA Charity shield should have been contested by Sunderland and Liverpool. The competition was not so highly regarded and teams seldom did not want to participate. From what I understand invitations were then extended. City were invited as holders of the Shield and Burnley for having just won the 2nd Division Championship. BUT is there a reliable source for this? (Msrasnw (talk) 22:28, 3 August 2011 (UTC))

Lead
[edit]- ...and hit the Burnley crossbar through Alan Oakes - This feel likes it needs something before this part of the sentence.
- Reworded
- In the 66th minute, they scored via a free-kick routine - What about changing to say something about like "Six minutes later,". Or if you want to keep the goal that was scored in the 66th minute, what about modifying the previous sentence to still indicate that Burnley dominated in the second half.
- Done
- Doug Collins dummied to take the free-kick - Possibly need to change the word of dummied as some people might not know what that means.
- Reworded
Pre-match
[edit]- ...last match of the season, away at local rivals Preston North End. Burnley drew 1–1 with a goal from Colin Waldron - Possibly reword of that portion of the sentence to maybe include the following sentence in the previous sentence.
- Done
- Was their any mention from the Manchester City manager at the time of the match or before it?
- Not that I've seen in the archives
Match
[edit]- ...went in front when a powerful shot from Alan Oakes hit the Burnley crossbar. - That needs a comma possibly after Alan Oakes.
- I think the sentence reads better without a comma.
- ...afterwards Mike Doyle shot wide with the Burnley... - Another sentence that could be reworded.
- Done
- During the opening 30 minutes Burnley regularly lost possession and... - Missing a comma after minutes.
- Added
- ...second half well and again pressed their opponents. - Again would need to be reworded here.
- Done
- ...played a one-two with Dobson, hit a powerful... - Could actually remove the comma after Dobson.
- Removed
Post-match
[edit]- ...and were beaten in the final of the Football League Cup. - You could mention who they lost to?
- Done
Notes
[edit]- No issues there
References
[edit]- For the reference relating to 11v11, you couldn't find another reference that might be suitable for that pre-match section?
- I've replaced the second use of the 11v11 ref in the pre-match section. This means that there is one left but the 11v11 ref captures all the info in that important sentence.
Final comments
[edit]- Ok, so just finish up with the match and the post match comments that I put in and this should be good to go. HawkAussie (talk) 00:06, 28 December 2023 (UTC)
