This article is in decent shape, but it needs more work before it becomes a Good Article.
- Is it well written?
- A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:
- In the Gillingham section, this sentence ---> "...Matt Jarvis, who had been sold to Wolverhampton Wanderers", reads odd, as a person is not an object. In the Grays Athletic section, "...Cogan had signed for the club, following a medical, on a trial basis", you might want to explain that sentence, like, what do you mean with "medical"?
- Changed first sentence to "who had joined", expanded medical decision.
- Check.

Same section, shouldn't there be an extra "l" on "traveled"?
