Broadhurst Park
Broadhurst Park
- ... that the opening match of Broadhurst Park (pictured) was a friendly between host F.C. United and S.L. Benfica?
- Reviewed:
Soon.Fleet Street
- Reviewed:
Improved to Good Article status by Delusion23 (talk). Nominated by Captain Assassin! (talk) at 04:10, 4 January 2016 (UTC).
- Nominated within time, hook cited and sourced. Prose and character lengths okay. QPQ done. Everything checks out fine, but I think the hook is incredibly boring. Maybe it's because I have no interest in football at all, but I don't see what is interesting about it being a friendly? Would like a second opinion here.
