England appearances & goals
editThe article states "he scored 15 international goals in just 13 games" which is supported by his profile at www.englandfootballonline.com [1]
His profile at www.englandfc.com[2] credits him with 14 goals in 13 appearances.
Finally, TheFA.com gives his record as 13 goals from 13 games.[3]
Can anyone supply a definitive answer?
I have raised a similar query on the talk page for the article 1885-86 in English football about one of the "missing goals" Daemonic Kangaroo 14:34, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
- Cris Freddi's "England Football Fact Book" from 1991, gives him 14 goals from the 13 games, but implies there is some doubt in his goalscoring record with the statement "He scored in 7 England matches without a break (probably not the 9 usually credited)". Several "facts" from individual games in the 19th century were reported differently in various publications of time with the result that, again quoting Cris, "The bottom line is that in the absence of film, there are times when we'll never know for sure" - fchd 15:16, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
