Hi Wna247, I would say this article would be better off undergoing a peer review before coming to FAC. There are a number of major issues that I can see from a brief glance.
 * The article changes from referring to the club as singular or plural throughout. For example, at the start of one paragraph, you have "Stockport remained in Division 2 of the Football League for seven years until 1912–13 when they again had to seek re-election. Stockport gained 22 votes and was therefore reelected". The first sentence uses they (plural), while the second uses was (singular).
 * The references are formatted rather inconsistently, some are missing required information like publishers and accessdates. Quite a few fall foul of WP:ALLCAPS and there are two or three that may not be classed as reliable sources.
 * Naming consistency is a little off at times, for example, the article switches between using Second Division and Division 2 regularly.
 * Tired to address this with a quick edit, will go through and check again with further amendments - changed naming consistency e.g (2nd Division changed to Second Division etc.) throughout. Changed "County" to "Stockport" throughout. Wna247 (talk) 00:48, 15 April 2020 (UTC)


 * Youth competitions are not typically included in honours sections.

 * The text needs a good copyedit I would say as well. There are obvious punctuation and grammar typos throughout.

I think this is a little way off from being considered an FA in its current form, but a good peer review would go a long way towards fixing that. If you do start a pr, drop me a line and I'd be happy to help out. Kosack (talk) 18:38, 14 April 2020 (UTC)

The Article is being Peer reviewed. The FAC can be closed and I will bring it back once peer review has been completed. Wna247 (talk) 15:21, 15 April 2020 (UTC)
