Harold Jarman
Eastville Stadium, the venue of the first EFL Cup match, seen here in 1982
- ... that Harold Jarman scored in the first match ever played in the EFL Cup? Source: "This was the opening game in the new Football League Cup competition [...] Rovers equalised after thirthy-six minutes. A shot by Alfie Biggs cannoned off the foot of the upright, and new boy Harry Jarman rammed the ball home." (Daily Mirror, 27 September 1960, via British Newspaper Archive)

Article has been appropriately expanded (just) in the appropriate timeframe, no copyvio concerns. I have previously been concerned about citing the Daily Mirror, but having searched the reliable sources noticeboard recently for another reason, I can conclude there is no consensus to deprecate it like The Sun and the Daily Mail. In particular, sports results and figures are one of the least contentious pieces of information to cite. Have to AGF as I don't have a BNA subscription anymore. Note, I'm provisionally passing this on the grounds that a QPQ will get done soon. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 16:08, 4 November 2020 (UTC)
