- I'll take on this one. Courcelles (talk) 16:03, 10 July 2018 (UTC)
- "Nicknamed "Noddy" or his heading ability" Do you mean "for"? - Done
- "and he eventually signed for First Division side Luton Town after" Which is in what country? I know, but our readers don't. - Done
- "anloan initial six month deal." Huh? - Done
- "The Football League " Is the "The" really capitalized? Also, any signing bonus with Luton? - Done
- "later went on to become the first post-war Cardiff player to score a hat-trick in the FA Cup in a 6–2 win over Exeter City." Going to need a direct source for this. - Done
- "After suffering the knee injury that ended his career, Alston's son Adrian Jr was diagnosed with Legg–Calvé–Perthes disease, a hip disorder. He soon spent the majority of his earnings made during his football career and moved back to England to set up a hotel with his brother Alex in Blackpool." Unsourced, all of it? - Added an extra cite midway through the paragraph
- "turned several offers" Are we missing a "down" here? - Done
