Comments

Can we avoid single-sentence paras.
"youth academy" any link?
Link for "loan"?
"joining Stevenage" which league?
"spells at Boreham Wood, as" these were non-League right?
"the Football League " link, but the lead said youngest player ever which presumably could include non-League time?
"being sent-off for" link.
"bookable offence" link.
Link loan again if possible.
Link substitute.
"the National League South club" overlinked.
"heading in a corner" link both.
"international duty in" you haven't yet mentioned for whom.
"manager" link.
" the COVID-19 pandemic in March" link the UK specific Covid pandemic article.
"friendly match" link.
"on penalties" link penalty shoot-out.

That's all I have. The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 09:40, 3 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for reviewing the article @The Rambling Man: great spot with the youngest ever player / youngest player in the Football League difference. I have made all of the suggested changes. Cheers. SBFCEdit (talk) 23:36, 3 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I feel like the hook could be greatly improved if the age was included, such as "that Ryan Johnson is Stevenage's youngest player in the club's English Football League history, debuting at 17?" A. C. Santacruz ⁂ Talk 22:22, 4 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Overall: Approval pending citation of hook (I only see it mentioned in Ryan_Johnson_(footballer,_born_1996)#Stevenage, where the fact was retrieved in 2014). Wayback machine did not return live link of source either. A. C. Santacruz ⁂ Talk 16:36, 5 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I found this alternate link, which appears to be the official site of one of the leagues he played it. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 06:41, 27 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Wait, I didn't notice that the source is already in the article. @A. C. Santacruz: I suppose this nomination is good to go now? Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 06:42, 27 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
