... that despite going behind in less than one minute courtesy of an own goal, Blackpool secured a record sixth post-season final when they won the 2021 EFL League One play-off Final?

Reviewed: Template:Did you know nominations/Dial Square F.C.

5x expanded by The Rambling Man (talk). Self-nominated at 20:50, 30 May 2021 (UTC).[reply]

Expanded enough, long enough, neutral, sourced, and no plagiarism found. Hook is supported by two separate parts of the article, each sourced. Hook seems interesting enough, an own goal within a minute is good fun. QPQ done. I might tweak the lead to for example note which team Johnson played for, but there's nothing holding this back as a DYK. CMD (talk) 15:31, 16 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I will look at this one, review coming soon. REDMAN 2019 (talk) 16:26, 21 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Lead[edit]

"from EFL League One, the third tier of English football," No need to say what tier the League one is at. It is linked for further information and this isn't in the 2020 or 2019 EFL League one playoff finals either.
Well I am often asked by non-football readers to help explain the tiers in English football and their odd nomenclature. I don't see this is doing any harm. The Rambling Man (Stay alert! Control the virus! Save lives!!!!) 15:34, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Match[edit]

Background[edit]

I'm being a bit picky here but the source for the kits (ref #12) doesn't say anything about traditional kits. Football fans will probably know about Blackpool but a casual reader might not.
Ok, I removed that bit. The Rambling Man (Stay alert! Control the virus! Save lives!!!!) 15:40, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Summary[edit]

Might want to give a reason as to why there are only 9,751 fans attending as it is not the usual number that you would see.

Again little to do here. Putting on hold for now. REDMAN 2019 (talk) 20:00, 23 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

REDMAN 2019 I've addressed and/or responded to each of those comments. Many thanks. The Rambling Man (Stay alert! Control the virus! Save lives!!!!) 15:40, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

REDMAN 2019 any updates? Cheers. The Rambling Man (Stay alert! Control the virus! Save lives!!!!) 07:13, 30 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@The Rambling Man: Sorry about the delay. I have been ill over the past few days and may not be able to respond until the weekend. REDMAN 2019 (talk) 09:12, 30 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

REDMAN 2019 no stress at all, get well soon. The Rambling Man (Stay alert! Control the virus! Save lives!!!!) 10:39, 30 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Feeling better now and after review I would say that this passes GA criteria. Passing. REDMAN 2019 (talk) 13:06, 2 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
