7. Overall:

   Pass/Fail:

General

• Be consistent in how you present Queens Park Rangers: i.e. it should be just one term and not two as you use currently (QPR and Rangers)

Lead

• "The redevelopment of Wembley Stadium meant that Football League play-off final matches were played in Cardiff between 2001 and 2006." - meant that Football League play-off final matches held between 2001 and 2006 were played in Cardiff.
• "who finished fourth during the league season, and Cardiff City, who finished sixth. " - reptition of finished

Route to the final

• "finishing between 3rd and 6th to enter the play-offs" - numbers between three to six should be spelt out per
  MOS:NUMBERS
• "Rangers midfielder Richard Langley equalised before being sent off with ten minutes remaining after a second bookable offence" - what was the circumstance that led to Langley's sending-off?

Pre-match

• ""a club game, not an international fixture." - missing the closing quotation marks in this section of text
• "First Minister of Wales Rhodri Morgan criticised the decision commenting that anthems shouldn't be a part of the match but if they were then both should be played." - should not
• "striker Paul Furlong stated that he believed" - try stated his belief to make it slightly less wordy
• "Cardiff chairman Hammam stated before the game" - you don't need to mention that Hamman was chairman of Cardiff shortly after another paragraph
• "However, Holloway rubbished Hammam's call" - Rubbished is informal

Summary

• " QPR goalkeeper Chris Day produced an impressive save" - Per
  WP:PEACOCK
  , avoid words such as impressive

References

• Refs 15 & 18 should have HighBeam Research as the source of your information

Overall a good neat work you have piece together. Only just the prose copy-edit and reference nibbles from my end. MWright96 (talk) 14:56, 1 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
