Okay - I'll make copyedits as I go (please revert if I inadvertently change the meaning) and jot queries below: Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 11:58, 18 January 2020 (UTC)

• There might not be any sources but do we know anything else of Riverside Albion? Also what was the Bevan Shield?

• There's no real record of Albion I can find other than they were a similar local amateur team. I've expanded slightly on the Bevan Shield. Kosack (talk) 19:32, 20 January 2020 (UTC)

• When they applied to become Cardiff City, had they become the pre-eminent club in Cardiff? Did that need to be a factor?

• No I don't believe so, in fact they were rejected the first time. It seems more like Bartley Wilson was trying to boost the club's reputation by carrying the name of the city more than anything. Kosack (talk) 19:32, 20 January 2020 (UTC)

• ... Cardiff were forced to turn down the opportunity... - meaning they were denied...? - Reworded

• Spiers would depart the club a second time in 1954, having believed to have fallen out with chairman Herbert Merrett again over the signing of Trevor Ford. - Spiers didn't want him and Merrett did....or the other way around?

• I've expanded on this to hopefully make the situation clearer. Kosack (talk) 19:32, 20 January 2020 (UTC)

All quibbles - looks pretty good otherwise. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 12:28, 18 January 2020 (UTC)

• @Casliber: Thanks for the review apologies it took me a few days to address these. Let me know what you think. Kosack (talk) 19:32, 20 January 2020 (UTC)
