 * First of all, thanks for taking time to review the article, and for some excellent feedback.

1B 2A 2B 4 6
 * I've fixed the double links issue and italics
 * I removed the text in question, as it was just a google search and the sentence doesn't really apply any more.
 * Removed the Jimmy Greeves bit, as I can't find a source for it; but source 1 covers the rest of it.
 * Added refs per requests, checked that all others are included in existing references; removed some stuff I couldn't find a ref for
 * Changed the pov bit to "Shearer maintained his form after moving to the north-east", which reflects the upcoming section in a more neutral manner (hopefully)
 * With regard to images - I've searched high and low, on commons, flickr for licensed pics, but no luck whatsoever. I have made some requests to some people on flickr, but I wouldn't hold my breath. It's a shame really,cause there are a lot of pics out there, just not licensed properly.
 * Don't worry about it, I can't fail the article if it doesn't have an image, per the criteria. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 21:25, 25 July 2008 (UTC)

Hopefully this satisfies all of the problems, but if I've missed anything I should be able to get it cleaned up pretty quickly! -  Toon  05  21:10, 25 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Thank you to Toon05 for getting the stuff I left at the talk page, because I have gone off and placed the article as GA. Congrats. ;) --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 21:25, 25 July 2008 (UTC)
