This infobox has a particularly boring and undistinguished (in every sense of the word) first line for the club title. Compare with, for example Bristol (city). ed g2s promptly reverted my lightweight change (to a grey background) without explanation. Is it his personal property? -- Concrete Cowboy 10:24, 17 May 2005 (UTC)
User 82.156.71.55 ( talk · contribs) asked a question in Talk:Feyenoord Rotterdam, and I don't know the answer to his question. Perhaps someone in here could help me. The question was: "Can't the keepers kit ... appear in the infobox?" Thanks in advance. Aecis 22:20, 18 July 2005 (UTC)
Its an interesting question but could be a hard one to include. For example last year Arsenal sold one keepers shirt, yet four different ones were worn during the season. Do we include the "for sale" keepers shirt, or try and list all the different colours worn each season? --
Tancred 01:12, July 19, 2005 (UTC)
I'm kinda against. Specially because they change it all the time, and have more than one every season. It's already problematic that players have more than 2 outfits. I think the point is to give a solid idea about the colours of the club, not to give an extensive and detailed list of all the possible outfits a club might use in each season. Nevertheless, we could make a hidden others section at the bottom of the Infobox to add whatever you want including Goalkeeper's outfits. - Mariano 07:22, 19 July 2005 (UTC)
A recommendation - when using the position parameter, people should use the final position from the last full season played, not the team's current position. Otherwise, it will need to be updated every time the team changes position, and there is no 'as of' date to show how up-to-date it is. Qwghlm 09:07, August 15, 2005 (UTC)
I think it would be nice to add a line for European (or international) cups played by the team. For example, Liverpool would sport a " UEFA Champions League winner" tag.-- Panairjdde 09:34, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
I transferred this template to the german wikipedia: de:Vorlage:Fußballklub_Infobox My questions: Is there a way to make entries optional? E. g. if there are no graphics for the outfit yet, the box for the jersey shouldn't appear at all. Also some want to have different information for different clubs, so optional rows would be great -- Schandi 17:33, 26 October 2005 (UTC)
How about adding some links info about club news, recent results and fixtures from the BBC website? I have created a template that easily allows this to be inserted:
{{BBC Football Info|BBClinkname=b/bristol_rovers}}
which renders as:
Note that you have to specify the first letter of the team name, followed by a / followed by the full name with _ instead of spaces in order to make the link work.
I suggest that this is used in the table between the info and the shirts (ccolspan 2 and centered). In order to make it optional, we should use the hiddenStructure class so that it can be introduced without wrecking all the info boxes who don't have the parameters added in yet. For example, typing in:
<span class="hiddenStructure{{{BBClinkname|}}}">{{BBC Football Info|BBClinkname=b/bristol_rovers}}</span>
which renders as:
i.e. it doesn't appear because the BBClinkname is not defined in this page.
Any comments anyone? If there's interest I'll knock up a prototype. ChrisUK 22:05, 7 February 2006 (UTC)
Manager mainly use in Premier League only, because the have rights to dicide which player buy and sell for example.
In other countries like Spain, they use head coach, because they are less invloved in management.
so i suggest change to this
|Head Coach||{{{manager}}}
and state the manager in (as Manager) behind their name
Go for it! Julien Tuerlinckx 18:57, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
I have noticed that someone has recently been putting the club addresses into the ground, so that Bolton are now in Greater Manchester and Arsenal are in Greater London etc. Is this absolutely necessary as this information is also in the main article and, as far as those in metropolitan districts are concerned, makes them look unwieldy. ( Pally01 12:22, 7 June 2006 (UTC))
I think adding a captain line (either optional or mandatory but definitely optional in the beginning) is something worth looking into. If no one objects I will add it some time next week. Yonatanh 02:09, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
All other things in the infobox are mentioned in different sections of the article as well but I think somebody didn't wait for the verdict here and already added captain to the template and it's already been added to some team's pages. Yonatanh 14:40, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
Never mind it seems it was just some unregistered user who thought it was part of the template or something. Still, I think it should be added. Yonatanh 14:46, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
Is there where to make a custom pattern for the shorts and socks? --

I think that the address of the official site should be included in the infobox as a very relevant info about the club. That is, of course, unless Wikipedia has some strict policy against it (and it appears as if it doesn't, since there are infoboxes that include this information).— Vitriden 03:33, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
I am currently trying to adapt this box for scn.wiki, but it is aligning left, and the borders appear to be missing - I copied whole from here, so I don't quite understand what is going on. Can anyone help me at all? Thanks in anticipation. πίππύ δ'Ω∑ - (waarom? jus'b'coz!) 01:25, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
I think a section on the infobox that lets people know each club's record attendance would be useful. Any thoughts?
Big Jim Fae Scotland, 05 October 2006, 14:18
Fair enough...that is your viewpoint. I don't think it is trivial though, and would be quite interested as a football fan to know what the record attendance is at each club. What defines it as trivia though but the ground capacity as useful information? What are the tons of other relevant facts to add ahead of this? You suggest they exist but offer no examples. I still think each clubs record attendance would be interesting. Would be good to know what others feel.
Big Jim Fae Scotland, 05 October 2006; 16:48
Oh, and meant to say...I am far more interested in the record attendance info than I am in each club's chairman which is included in the infobox. ;o)
Big Jim Fae Scotland, 05 October 2006; 16:50
I think it would be a good idea to add the shirt sponsor to the infobox. Anyone object? jaco♫ plane 10:08, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
Could an optional field be added for the date a club was dissolved or closed? That way the infobox could be used for clubs which are now defunct, which would be handy. Qwghlm 01:04, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
Hello! Elisson. Can i discuss this with you is it alright for you that i add this two important things to this template. Assistant manager and chief executive this is important because of clarity reasons
