Well most of the issues I normally find have already been addressed (such as adding the image of course) so I could only find two issues with this article:

Race

  • "The starter, Mr Searle, gave the command to start" Do you know Mr. Searle's first name? If not, then change "Mr Searle" to "Mr. Searle".
    It's Edward, I'll add. By the way, I wouldn't add a full stop after Mr in the scenario you have outlined as I was always taught that if an abbreviation has (at least) the first and last letter of the word its abbreviating, no full stop required.

  • "At the football ground" Can you add more detail to that? Who was the football ground owned by for example?
    Sure, it's Fulham's football ground, Craven Cottage. I'll add that. The Rambling Man (talk) 14:55, 12 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Other than that, it has no other problems! I will promote once the issues above are addressed. good888 (talk) 14:37, 12 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
