[edit]

Ages ago, the page was moved to McCaffery, but then moved back to McCaffrey with the edit summary "spelling was right after all", but without any sources to say why. However, reliable sources including Soccerbase, Carlisle United website list of managers, and the 1990-91 Rothmans Football Yearbook, have -ery. And contemporary reports from The Times over several years and for several clubs, some now cited in the article, consistently use the McCaffery spelling. Unless anyone can come up with a really good reason why not, I'd suggest the page be moved to that spelling. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 12:02, 17 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Both Byrne & Jay (2003)[1] and Jay & Byrne (1994)[2] use the -rey spelling. There certainly seems to be some inconsistency in the usage. — Gasheadsteve Talk to me 14:06, 28 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
