 * "played at Cardiff Arms Park, and Middlesbrough, played at the Harlequins Ground in Newport." - held at

Football League and development

 * "their fourth placed finish in 1920 raised enough income to wipe out the club's debts" - fourth-placed; also wipe out is informal, replace with eliminated

Redevelopment

 * "The first show home of the £24m" - £24 million

Sporting events

 * "Cardiff rugby club played at the ground twice" - should be Ninian Park so it stands out from the reptition of the word emboldened in the quotation marks I have put
 * "The ground hosted 7 internationals between 1981 and 1995." - spell out 7 per MOS:NUMERALS

Concerts

 * " This date had originally been scheduled for Stephen Stills but when he was unable to play Marley filled the date." - reptition of "date"
