[edit] Featured Article?

With that two sentence lead? It also has no inline citations and one reference listed. I wish I was around in the good old days when you could get anything featured. Quadzilla99 05:21, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

First sentence kills it for me. The phrase "who achieved much success in the French and British women's game" is objectionable on several grounds. (1) I hate the use of 'much'. (2) Is the French game different for the British game? (3) Or is the French and British game different from everywhere else. (4) 'Game' or 'sport'? (5) The whole reads like sports journalism rather than an encyclopaedia article (use of game for example). So, how about achieved success in France and Britain?
