Part of August 2023 backlog.

There is an issue with some of the references; some links are either dead or redirect. 5, for example, is dead, while 83 redirects. Check all the sources, especially those retrieved years ago, and replace them with archived pages (perhaps on the Wayback Machine). If not, then replace with another source that says the same thing or delete the statement. I checklink'd and there are numerous problems, see here. Unfortunately, the tool can't fix the issue, so you'll have to do it manually. Until that's fixed, I'll put the review on hold.

 * Okay I have sorted those dead links out now. Thanks. EchetusXe 16:13, 6 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Alright, I'll continue the review shortly. Good work. 123Writer talk 16:25, 6 August 2023 (UTC)

Infobox, Lead, Images, References
Infobox seems well-formatted, with info not in body cited in-line.

Lead provides a good overview of article, with good paragraphing that focuses on current and past affiliations. All info not cited in-line is cited in body, no issues.

Images are relevant to the subject, either own work or properly attributed to creator, and captioned properly.

Above issues on references have been fixed. I've archived all links so that doesn't become an issue in the future. (I couldn't use the bot prior as it'd just archive the redirect I think.) No issues.

Watford
Spot-check: 4, 8, 10.

...on 85 minutes. -> 85 minutes into the game. Could also be at the 85 minute mark. Your discretion. 123Writer talk 17:43, 6 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Done.--EchetusXe 23:42, 6 August 2023 (UTC)

2010–11 season

Did some copy-editing. See history for changes and holler if you have any issues.

Wealdstone loan
Spot-check: 20,

25 makes no mention of his total games and goal count. Is it possible to find a source of some kind for this? 123Writer talk 17:43, 6 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Done.--EchetusXe 23:42, 6 August 2023 (UTC)

Colchester United

No issues. Actually, looking at the rest of the article, I wonder if the season subtitling could be removed and this entire section condensed to the more notable appearances. Thoughts?

 * Yes I agree, probably the same with the Watford section too.--EchetusXe 23:31, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
