OK - will jot notes as I go. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 11:10, 2 February 2015 (UTC)

I'd meld the lead into 2 or 3 paragraphs with no standalone sentences

The club also finished second in numerous competitions, finishing second in the league five times and runners-up in seven cup finals, including the 1975 European Cup. - could rejig this to use the word "second" (or "runners-up") only once....

religion based - needs a hyphen I think...

The 1967–68 season had a slow start but soon picked up... - the season or the club had a slow start?

despite the player wanting the move to go ahead as he desperately wanted to return to Scotland to be with his fiancée - could try to trim this. "despite the player wanting to return to Scotland to be with his fiancée" (middle redundant I think)

He made the club more professional for the 1979–80 campaign, introducing massages and changing the canteen and the team kit - let facts speak for themselves --> "He introduced massages and changed the canteen and team kit for the 1979–80 campaign,"

NB: I've merged some short paras - keeping them strictly season-by-season makes the prose a bit too choppy. Have merged some but check for flow.

Overall an engaging read. GA status is feasible once some fixes are done. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 11:25, 2 February 2015 (UTC)

@Casliber: 40 days have passed since this review was placed on review. Are there outstanding fixes to be made? Thanks, C679 19:46, 14 March 2015 (UTC)

whoops, I completely forgot about this one! ok, now just needs 2 tags need citing and I think we're done. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 21:23, 14 March 2015 (UTC)
