• Linfield is overlinked in the lead.
• Consider linking Captain (association football).
• Also player-manager.
• Might be worth linking British Army (if, indeed, that was the Army he joined)?
• Jimmy?". don't think you need that full stop.
• Link "suspended" appropriately, we don't want readers thinking they found him in the air on ropes...
• Link "transfer" appropriately.
• Is there a suitable link for "reserve"?
• " club's FA Cup run," could link the specific FA Cup.
• List of Welsh Cup finals is a possible target for the Welsh Cup final.
• Link "cap".
• Glentoran overlinked.
• "club to the final of the City Cup where they were defeated." by whom?

That's all I have, a nice article. The Rambling Man (Stay alert! Control the virus! Save lives!!!!) 11:52, 13 January 2021 (UTC)

@The Rambling Man: Thanks for taking a look, I've addressed all of the points above. Kosack (talk) 13:07, 13 January 2021 (UTC)

No worries, all looks good, but just one last thing, what makes nifootball.com a RS? The Rambling Man (Stay alert! Control the virus! Save lives!!!!) 15:21, 13 January 2021 (UTC)

The site has been discussed a few times and is generally seen as a RS, see a few topics 1, 2 and the big one where it went up at the sources noticeboard. The site has a pretty sizeable list of established football historians as contributors I believe based on past discussions. Kosack (talk) 16:03, 13 January 2021 (UTC)

Great, good to know, thanks for the background. Happy to see this one pass. Good work. The Rambling Man (Stay alert! Control the virus! Save lives!!!!) 20:32, 13 January 2021 (UTC)
