I'll take this one on, review incoming. Kosack (talk) 13:05, 12 January 2021 (UTC)

=Lead=

  • Link kick-off.

=Coventry City=

  • You're starting from scratch with links here really, so Coventry > Coventry City.
  • :Done.  — Amakuru (talk) 14:02, 12 January 2021 (UTC)
  • Link FA Cup and Third Division.
  • :Done.  — Amakuru (talk) 14:02, 12 January 2021 (UTC)
  • "managed at the time by future Coventry manager Phil Neal", is this worth noting? If he had taken over following the final perhaps I would agree, but he wouldn't do so for another six years?
  • :I guess not. Removed.  — Amakuru (talk) 14:02, 12 January 2021 (UTC)
  • Link George Curtis and perhaps note his managerial role for context?
  • :Done.  — Amakuru (talk) 14:02, 12 January 2021 (UTC)
  • "The game was once again played on a frozen pitch and Coventry won the game", double use of game is a little repetitive.
  • :Second instance removed.  — Amakuru (talk) 14:02, 12 January 2021 (UTC)
  • "this time Second Division at Stoke City" > at Second Division...?
  • :Done.  — Amakuru (talk) 14:02, 12 January 2021 (UTC)
  • Link Sheffield Wednesday. I'm guessing this will progress to FAC, so neutral venue may be worth linking as well.
  • :Done both.  — Amakuru (talk) 14:02, 12 January 2021 (UTC)

=Tottenham Hotspur=

  • Again, as the first mention outside the lead, Tottenham > Tottenham Hotspur.
  • :Done.  — Amakuru (talk) 14:06, 12 January 2021 (UTC)
  • Link Fourth Division, may also be worth adding team or side afterwards to avoid a sea of blue.
  • :Done.  — Amakuru (talk) 14:06, 12 January 2021 (UTC)
  • Link replay to Replay (sports).
  • :Done.  — Amakuru (talk) 14:06, 12 January 2021 (UTC)
  • "beat fellow Division One", until now you've used the First Division, Second Division, etc format. I'd try to maintain the same style to avoid any confusion.
  • :Done.  — Amakuru (talk) 14:06, 12 January 2021 (UTC)
  • Link Watford.
  • :Done.  — Amakuru (talk) 14:06, 12 January 2021 (UTC)

=Background=

  • Link Highfield Road.
  • :I've added a linked reference to this up in the "Route to the final" section.  — Amakuru (talk) 14:13, 12 January 2021 (UTC)
  • Perhaps worth noting that the two singles were "commemorative songs for reaching the final" or something similar just to explain the relevance of them to people who may be unfamiliar to the tradition.
  • :Done.  — Amakuru (talk) 14:13, 12 January 2021 (UTC)
  • Referee is linked here but is used in the Coventry Route to the Final section previously.
  • :Fixed. I've also linked it where it occurs in the lead.  — Amakuru (talk) 14:13, 12 January 2021 (UTC)
  • Link captains.
  • :Done.  — Amakuru (talk) 14:13, 12 January 2021 (UTC)
  • "in the starting elevn", typo.
  • :Fixed.  — Amakuru (talk) 14:13, 12 January 2021 (UTC)

=First half=

=Post-match=

=References=

A very thorough and well written article. A few points above to look at, but nothing major. Placed on hold for now. Kosack (talk) 13:29, 12 January 2021 (UTC)
