Hook eligibility:

Cited:
Interesting:
Other problems: - Hook may need amending as the EFL only covers three divisions / 72 clubs (and should it say 'current' 91?); grammar purists may insist PVFC "'is the only club" -

Maybe ALT1 ... that Port Vale F.C. have [has] beaten all 91 other clubs in the top four divisions of the current English football league system in a competitive league fixture?

QPQ: Done.

Overall: Subject to tweaking the hook, this looks good to me. Paul W (talk) 12:51, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@EchetusXe: are you OK with ALT1? Z1720 (talk) 01:25, 21 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I'm okay with it but can we not include the fact that they are the only club that can make this claim?Echetus Xe 09:09, 21 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Suggest ALT2 "... that Port Vale F.C. is the only club to have beaten all 91 other clubs in the top four divisions of the current English football league system in a competitive league fixture?" Paul W (talk) 09:39, 21 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
