This article is absolutely ridiculious, but funny. Nice vandalism. JAStewart 22:50, 14 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Comments:

  • He made a total of 14 appearances for Brentford during the season.[8] Julian left Brentford in February 2005. Why? Was he out of the first team picture at Brentford in 2004–05? If so, why was he?
  • Julian kept seven clean sheets for Stevenage during the second half of the club's 2004–05 campaign [...] Julian made 17 appearances for Stevenage during the second half of the 2004–05 season Could these sentences be merged?
  • Julian joined Gillingham on a free transfer on 21 May 2008 No mention that he was signed by his former manager at Stevenage, Mark Stimson? You hint at it earlier with After manager Mark Stimson left Stevenage to join Gillingham,[51] Julian refused to sign a new contract. Seems like that is begging to have Stimson's name on the first line of the Gillingham section.
  • Why was he released by Gillingham? He was the first choice keeper, did he decide to leave or the club want to get rid of him? If this information is not publicly available then that is fine.
  • Any information on his international career? Why is a lad from Ashford even in the team? Mentions he played for the under-19s here. He didn't play in the 2004 qualifiers. Says here he only played once. Here it shows that 8 under-21 games played between 2003 and 2004, and 6 of those were Euro qualifiers that UEFA's site says he did not play in. Perhaps he played one friendly game at under-21 level and the other 5 caps were actually at under-19 level?
    • Good find with the reference, it would appear he has only played one under-21 game for Northern Ireland. I will try and find something regarding how he qualified to play for the country. --SBFCEdit (talk) 03:45, 21 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Stats table seems to differ from the one at Soccerbase, specifically the 2004–05 season at both Brentford and Stevenage, and again at the 2006–07 season.
    • The 2004–05 season Brentford statistics are wrong, as you pointed out – I missed out his appearances against MK Dons in the Football League Trophy, which I've now changed. Not sure how the 2004–05 season Stevenage statistics differ – both state he played 14 league games and 3 further games in the play-offs, which comes under "other" on both stats tables. As for the 2006–07 season at Stevenage, Soccerbase failed to include the earlier rounds of both the FA Cup (one game) and the FA Trophy (three games) respectively, which is why I have used a Boroguide reference to support the additional four appearances Soccerbase fail to pick up on. --SBFCEdit (talk) 03:45, 21 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
