Didn't actually check whether it was 5x expanded because it was promoted to GA on 2 March, eligible either way. Earwigs flags what is almost definitely a mirror. AGF on offline source Eddie891 Talk Work 16:54, 4 March 2021 (UTC)GA Review

Lead
edit- "The top four teams of the 1990–91 Fourth Division season gained automatic promotion to the Third Division, while the teams placed from fifth to eighth in the table" - repetition of "teams"
- Wikilink the term cross to the relevant article
- Fourth Division and Third Division in the third paragraph are better off wikilinked to the relevant season articles of both leagues
- I link to the club season articles (if they exist) because the text is talking about "their" seasons, not "the" seasons. The Rambling Man (Stay alert! Control the virus! Save lives!!!!) 07:46, 2 March 2021 (UTC)
Route to the final
edit- "Blackpool finished the regular 1990–91 season in fifth place in the Football League Fourth Division, the fourth tier of the English football league system, two places ahead of Torquay United." - repetition of "place(s)"
- Wikilink free kick to the appropriate article
- Headed pass and cross could also be better off wikilinked to the appropriate article
Background
edit- "Billy Ayre had taken over as manager of Blackpool in December 1990 with the club sixth from bottom but led them into the play-offs with a club-record winning streak of 13 games at home" - repetition of "club"
- Wikilink Wembley Stadium to the appropriate article
- "each side won their home game with Torquay winning 2–1 in October 1990 and Blackpool winning 1–0 the following March." - too many uses of the word "won/winning"
Summary
edit- Wikilink extra time to the appropriate entry
Post-match
edit- "most misguided vehicle for deciding football matches".[14][13]" - refs in numerical order please
- Fourth Division and Third Division in the second paragraph are better off wikilinked to the relevant season articles of both leagues on the first mention
- As above, I use the phrase "their next season" etc to indicate it's going to link to the specific season pages for the clubs not the generic league seasons. The Rambling Man (Stay alert! Control the virus! Save lives!!!!) 07:54, 2 March 2021 (UTC)
References
edit- Reference 2 "Howells of delight" is missing the page number
- Reference 18 "Lights go out on sad Blackpool" does not mention it is only accessible through a paywall
- Reference 22 "Carter adds to Arsenal's forward motion" is missing the publication date and page number
