Move rationale: surname spelling[edit]

The sources already in the article are mixed: Neil Brown (who sourced primarily from Rothman's) and Soccerbase have two t's while FIFA has one. Have no access to the book source, and am discounting the footballzz as unreliable. If it had been me, and no other sources had been available, I'd have followed FIFA, as the article does, but I think they're wrong.

ENFA and Hugman also have two. So do the websites of some of his former clubs: Kingstonian, Scarborough, Aylesbury. So does the Conference 25th anniversary stats book, edited by that league's then official statistician: Harman, John, ed. (2005). Alliance to Conference 1979–2004: The first 25 years. Tony Williams. p. 407. ISBN 978-1-869833-52-7. So do transcriptions of birth records: search at FreeBMD; I know we can't use birth records for BLP details that haven't been published in reliable secondary sources, but I think they're acceptable to determine which published spelling is correct. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 12:59, 2 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
