Does scurrilous tabloid gossip have a place in an encyclopedia? --Nicander
 * I'm not convinced that it does, so I've got rid of it. :) Starfighter Pilot (talk) 20:29, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

"Link to Sun article" I hope that's not the newspaper The Sun, 'cause that newspaper is SH*T!! They are a bunch of lyers!!!

Joe Cole right footed?
Isn't he two-footed?

-- No, he's right-footed. His right foot is much stronger than his left. 219.90.218.83 (talk) 07:41, 9 September 2008 (UTC)Rusty8.

Picture
A better picture of Joe is needed badly. alexdeangelis86 20:14, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

Joe Cole is with Liverpool now. Good picture of him at the recent press conference holding out the club scarf.RichaelGimbang (talk) 18:32, 27 July 2010 (UTC)


 * If the image is free it can go. Tb hotch Ta lk C.  18:36, 27 July 2010 (UTC)

Islington?
Why is he tagged as "People from Islington" - I see no connection with Islington whatsoever. Camden is not Islington. —Preceding unsigned comment added by TheMathemagician (talk • contribs) 23:27, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

Place of birth?
Infobox says Paddington, which is in Westminster, text says Islington, and Camden is mentioned in this discussion page. Which is it? —Preceding unsigned comment added by ÉlianeClark (talk • contribs) 17:25, 31 March 2009 (UTC)

Error
States Joe Cole presently plays for Arsenal?! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.146.247.67 (talk) 12:06, 30 May 2010 (UTC)

--No, they are just rumours which people think will "help" wikipedia. It's all rumours until it's official on the club's websites. User PrJ 27  talk  01:08, 6 June 2010 (UTC)

Persistent vandalism --> semi-protection?
The persistent vandalism of this article is getting tiring. Can we get semi-protection until Cole has officially signed with a new club?

Hes now signed for coventry city, 35 day loan, shirt number 14 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lacesoutdom (talk • contribs) 14:37, 19 October 2015 (UTC)

2009 Cup Final
Can I just point out he has won 2 and not 3 FA Cup winners medals. He was injured in the early rounds v So uthend and out for the rest of the season and thus did not play against Everton. Mrtamblingman

Edit request from 120.89.86.149, 19 July 2010

 * years3 = 2010– | clubs3 = Liverpool                | caps2 = 0 | goals2 = 0

 * Red information icon with gradient background.svg Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made.


 * You'd need to supply a reliable source to show he'd actually signed for Liverpool. The only reliable source for that would be Liverpool F.C.'s website, and there's no such announcement there at the moment. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 08:00, 19 July 2010 (UTC)

He has signed for Liverpool

Don't add Joe Cole's number yet. Sky Sports News may be saying that he will wear number 7, but it isn't official yet. Someone put 7 down on the Liverpool page.(talk) 17:04, 19 July 2010 (GMT)


 * And in fact, Joe Cole is seen in training with the number 10, so nothing's finalised yet. Jovanovic could end up with 7, we never know.(talk) 14:10, 20 July 2010 (GMT)

Tottenham Hotspur
On 5th June 2011 reports emerged claiming a 3,000,000 pound bid was accepted by Liverpool from Tottenham Hotspur. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.230.110.84 (talk) 13:23, 5 June 2011 (UTC)

Edit request on 3 January 2013
Joe Cole has signed for West Ham United F.C as of the 3rd January 2013

2013 league stats at West Ham
The stats for Cole at West Ham in 2013 are contradictory. The info box states he played 11 times for them, the career stats 7 times. Which is correct? 194.28.125.14 (talk) 21:33, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
 * The infobox is up-to-date. The table is not.--Egghead06 (talk) 21:44, 4 June 2013 (UTC)

Spain
He scored two youth goals. Neither were against Spain. There is no evidence this game actually occurred, and if it happened in under 14 football or whatever, this is not notable and should be removed. RealDealBillMcNeal (talk) 16:17, 21 November 2015 (UTC)
 * There is a reference given that it did happen in U14 international football and scoring seven goals in one match is significant.--Egghead06 (talk) 16:20, 21 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Neither reference actually says that. That is a lie. RealDealBillMcNeal (talk) 16:26, 21 November 2015 (UTC)
 * You charmer. Call me a liar - lovely. Read the third reference and stop being so rude and unpleasant.--Egghead06 (talk) 16:53, 21 November 2015 (UTC)
 * I actually said, and I will quote this verbatim to avoid further confusion and deply hurtful accusations thrown at me, "That is a lie". I did not call you a liar. None of the first three make any reference to the age in which he "scored" seven goals against Spain. That is now four things you have read incorrectly. Four. Please, can you read things properly before typing in the future? RealDealBillMcNeal (talk) 17:21, 21 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Nevertheless, your method is one of confrontation. Guess it works in life for you but after so many bans on Wiki maybe not on here eh? Anyway I've added a source for The Independent that these goals were in an England Schoolboy game. Still maintain seven goals in any game by someone who goes on to play full international football is a significant milestone in his career.--Egghead06 (talk) 18:20, 21 November 2015 (UTC)
 * I'd rather be confrontational than a proven liar. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ A 13 year old scoring seven goals in a game is not notable. You don't even know whether he was playing for England Under 14 or England schoolboys, so that is original research on your behalf. You can't give a date or a venue. You don't even know what country it was in. You don't even know what continent it was on. Can you find me a teamsheet for that day, please? This story of Joe Cole scoring seven against Spain on an undetermined day for an undetermined England youth team at an undetermined venue in an undetermined stadium is completely and utterly apocryphal. A few journalists saying it, in passing, in puff pieces, is not evidence that it actually happened. RealDealBillMcNeal (talk) 19:12, 21 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Sorry, out of food today.--Egghead06 (talk) 06:32, 22 November 2015 (UTC)
 * So, you can't give a date or a venue. You don't even know what country it was in. You don't even know what continent it was on. Can you find me a teamsheet for that day, please? RealDealBillMcNeal (talk) 11:09, 22 November 2015 (UTC)
