Comments

Where's his birth date referenced?
Could crop the image for the infobox.
"2006-07 FA Trophy" make sure you use en-dashes where relevant per WP:DASH.
Anything about his personal life before signing up for the Addicks?
Underhill is a dab link.
Try to avoid repeating "Fuller" in consecutive sentences when there's no need to do so. If it's clear who "he" would be, then let it be "he" to avoid the repetition.
"on to make 9 more" -> nine.
"Despite these significant set-backs" I think "significant" is your opinion.
"by beating the Dale" that's not brilliant for folks who don't know Rochdale can be referred to as such.
"achieved his greatest professional honour to date" WP:OR and WP:POV.
"The 27-year-old defender..." last person mentioned was Frampton.
"making just 9 league appearances in total." -> "making just nine league appearances."
"having made 137 league appearances in total." no need for "in total".
" the 28-year-old defender " -> maybe "28-year-old Fuller..."?
Consistent retrieval date formats needed.
Ref titles, 3, 5, 7 etc... spaced hyphens rather than unspaced en-dashes.
soccerbase.com or Soccerbase?
