English grammar usage in the article Matt Ritchie
I have today flagged the article with a request for a rewrite of certain parts in each section/paragraph (I only wish I currently had the time to do this myself). The English grammar being used is not correct for an English article, and parts of it read like a foreign language translation through a program. This is not meant to cause offence to any foreign contributors who may have been involved - every sincere contribution to Wikipedia counts; the fact remains though that the rewrite is needed for English Wikipedia. I promise that I will return to carry this out myself if my schedule allows. Thank you, in anticipation of help. Ref (chew) (do) 13:17, 5 March 2013 (UTC)

It is poorly written in places, mostly around the actual timeline of his appearances and the suggestion that his current club is Bournemouth Poppies (the non-league club) rather than AFC Bournemouth (the Football League Championship club)
