Has anyone else seen this? It's either malicious or an autocorrect problem.

No problem, just edited the BS out. no way of preventing some knobhead from altering it again though. Looks like there have been a few vandal edits over the history, mainly from Asia and Luton(?).

I've flagged it for watch and will see if 82.132.228.60 is used again, it's the 2nd edit from this IP in total, but the same edit has been made from other IPs in the past. Due to his work in Asia there have been a number of malicious edits and I think they'll keep coming.

Wiki is far too easy to edit for non-contributors, but that was kind of the point of its original purpose for sharing research. Hell I didn't even bother to login to edit, I will do when I get home and keep an eye on it.

Can always request an IP Edit block, if it's found to be an abusive editor then they may block it from editing. Sure they could spoof the IP and keep doing this s*** if they are determined, but going by the maturity of the edit I don't think that they will make the effort.

Keeping in line with statements about things things the club should never have done...

We should have never have sacked Steve Coppell.
