[edit] NPOV check

  • No matter how true the point about Celtic and the UEFA cup final is, its definitely not a neutral POV. --Freshko 11:47, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Vandalism

This page is getting quite a bit of vandalism from certain IPs. Please keep an eye out for extreme POV (such as 'the enemy who are a bunch of bigots' and the like). Blowski 13:44, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Definition of 'prolific'

"He was a prolific goalscorer for FC Twente where he scored 59 league goals in five seasons". Sorry if I'm pedantic, but is 12 goals a season prolific? Henry scored 130 league goals between 2001/2 and 2005/6, which to me is prolific.

- I reworded it to avoid any description of his scoring rate - nodrog, 13 Sept 2006

[edit] Why so few games

With such a high strike-rate, why's he played so infrequently for Celtic? --Dweller 12:45, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

Two hamstring injuries since his arrival has curtailed his appearances. Rockpocket 18:20, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Pronunciation

Why is the pronunciation of his name Yan Fenni-gore off Hessylink. You can't really define the way it sounds with English letters. A "v" in Dutch is a combination of "v" and "f", not just an F. And the "of" would be more like "uf", and its hess-e-link. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.112.112.136 (talk) 23:46, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
