2019-20 appearances
Smith's 2019-20 appearances for Grantham haven't been included in either the infobox or the Career Statistics section of the article because the season was cancelled for COVID19. I haven't seen this approach taken elsewhere - perhaps this is a discussion for WikiProjectFootball? I am inclined to add them back in for consistency. Although this would definitely be an example of recency bias (no one includes the 1939-40 stats for the season that was curtailed for World War II), the 2019-20 FA Trophy and Lincolnshire Senior Cup weren't voided so as a minimum Smith's appearance in these should be listed. Plus, with hindsight only tiers 7 & 8 of the English game were voided - tiers 1-6 concluded as normal (some based on points per game), while tiers 9 and below promoted teams based on results from the two COVID-affected seasons. With this in mind it feels particularly harsh to ignore appearances in tiers 7 & 8 as here.

I will probably put this change through before I forget, but if you disagree feel free to contribute here or start a wider discussion elsewhere, and don't hesitate to revert me! Cheers Nonleagueapps (talk) 21:56, 31 March 2024 (UTC)
