 * Symbol question.svg This is correctly, and inline, sourced to lfchistory.net. I questioned whether lfchistory.net is RS, however, the articles are bylined, it has multiple contributors indicating a potential form of editorial control, and a cursory search indicates it has been referenced by unambiguously RS like the Liverpool Echo, the Daily Post (North Wales). and Bleacher Report. The article has been 5x expanded and is NPOV. No obvious copyvio, no image to check. Pending QPQ this looks great! Chetsford (talk) 04:36, 13 March 2018 (UTC)
