[edit] Changes

I have started a copy edit. I feel that some of the content was/is not sufficiently neutral. Is it appropriate to still list Andy Ward with a NZ flag? He is capped for Ireland, has lived here more than a decade, is married to a NI woman and has kids born here?Weejack48 08:20, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

I simply put the NZ flag in as i really know nothing about the man, however I do feel it give the page and the club a more international and professional flavour. Should the Flag be changed to Union Jack? as a British Citizen or an Irish Shamrock as having played for ireland? CKA4004--Cka4004 12:30, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

Shamrock would be appropriate given his Irish capped status. We would need to cite a source to confirm that he has taken British citizenship before we could use the Union Flag.Weejack48 12:57, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
