Birth date

Hi.

Are you sure Anderson was born in July? I'm not saying you're wrong, but I've always had his date of birth as 29 Aug 1956, which the PFA website (among many others) agrees with...

I second that question: Britannica and others list it as Aug, although others list November I see. Britannica entry --gilgongo (talk) 13:22, 13 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The correct date is the August date, as the article now reads. – Pee Jay 00:13, 14 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

1990 Cup Final

I think reference to Ince in 1990 cup final is incorrect - I think Phelan was right-back and Ince in midfield. 1990 cup final page agrees with me, but Mike Phelan's bio doesn't. I've not edited. Trbl0001 (talk) 13:42, 22 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see anything on Phelan's wiki page to say he didn't play whereas every other site I've seen for the final says he did. https://historyofsoccer.info/1990-fa-cup-final?expand_article=1 I vote we change it. Firestar47 (talk) 13:56, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ok on further research it looks like Phelan and Ince both played. the question is simply which position. different sources seem to vary. Firestar47 (talk) 15:38, 17 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

phelan played right back but the issue is confused because ince wore the number 2 usually the right backs number 2A06:5904:212:100:45B7:8A61:FAC0:1A2F (talk) 21:02, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

On that basis lets do an edit. from memory nearly all the pages I saw agree with that. Firestar47 (talk) 16:38, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Weird

Is this article about Viv or some guy called Stevens ?
