ScottishFinnishRadish shouldn't Oxford be removed? The source for it is FreeBMD (https://www.freebmd.org.uk/cgi/information.pl?cite=WOybn5JXIbmLAIa2k38yDA&scan=1), a birth certificate. Also for the birthday. https://www.worldfootball.net/referee_summary/graham-scott/ has his date of birth as just 1968.VikingDrummer (talk) 05:35, 21 April 2021 (UTC)Reply

Birthplace

I have added an additional birthplace reference for Oxford. Bourneouth came from a user called JamesHandford on 17 April 2021 after Norwich lost a football match to Bournemouth 3-1. VikingDrummer did issue him a warning but the birthplace vandalism was not spotted or reverted. Racingmanager (talk) 10:40, 21 April 2021 (UTC)Reply

I know Graham personally and can confirm he was born in Oxfordshire and supports Swindon Town, as per the Mirror article. I didn't change the article myself because I didn't have a citation and because of potential WP:COI. Dave.Dunford (talk) 16:31, 21 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
