Comments

There is a problem with the image File:Roma1984a.jpg, see the image page for details.

I can't see any problem, there is a rationale which covers the bit about the logo below. NapHit (talk) 20:30, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

The attendance 69,693 needs a cite

Cited in the details section. NapHit (talk) 20:30, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

As it possibly effected the outcome the bribe should be mentioned in the lead

done NapHit (talk) 20:30, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

In the Summary section Ian Rush is linked, but already linked above. Also for teh second use of his name it should just be Rush

done and the two below. NapHit (talk) 20:30, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

Same for Bruno Conti

Same for Francesco Graziani

Full names should be given for Brazilian duo Falcão and Cerezo at first use

I'll give the full name for Cerezo but Falcao was commonly known as that so am going to leave that one. NapHit (talk) 20:30, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

25-yard should have the metric measurement added 25 yards (23 m)

done NapHit (talk) 20:30, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

There is a cn tag for extra time and a note explaining what extra time is, would aid those with no knowledge of the game

Added a wikilink, this is sufficient as the reader can click on the link. NapHit (talk) 20:30, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

The details section has several wikilinks to persons/subjects already linked

This is common practice in football articles, at worst they will only be linked three times in the article, its not exactly overlinking, especially as they are in different sections. NapHit (talk) 20:30, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

It also displays two yellow cards which are not mentioned in the text. Again for those with no knowledge of the game mention should be made.

Neal's yellow card is mentioned in the text, and a wikilink is provided for yellow card, so this should be sufficient. NapHit (talk) 20:30, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

Also what the green and red arrows mean.

They refer to substitutions, I will include a wikilink in the text so the reader is aware. NapHit (talk) 20:30, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

Citation 2 etc Ponting (1992). p. 174. should be Hale and Ponting

Hale's contribution to the book is purely photographic (he's a photographer and provides the photos in the book), so I think leaving it as Ponting is best. NapHit (talk) 20:30, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

What makes Rec. Sport. Soccer Statsitics Foundation (RSSSF) a reliable site

It is the official statisiticsla body of the Danish Football Federtaion, has ties with FIFA, I'm sure a quick look around there site will confirm this, if you're unsure anyone at WP:FOOTY will back me up on this. NapHit (talk) 20:30, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

Graham, Matthew (1985). Liverpool. Hamlyn Publishing Group. ISBN 0-600-50254-6. needs the publishing location added.

done NapHit (talk) 20:30, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

The ISBNs should be the same format three have dashes one does not
