Hey, how's it going in Hamburg? Wow, cool. Let's talk about me now.
I'm still in Newcastle enjoying lazy mornings in the garden followed by lazy afternoons watching Cash In the Attic and Storage Hunters UK. I keep begging Sebastian to let me into his loft to have a rummage for treasures I can take to auction but he's not keen.
You can guess from the attachment how I've been keeping myself busy. Yes, I have once again been battling with Wikipedia's editors, to the point that they have blocked edits from the font of wisdom and accuracy that is Cliff Daps. I need you to get on there and make the changes I have been demanding.
First, change my eye colour from 'brown' to what it says on my passport: 'mesmerising mist'.
Second, remove all instances of the word 'controversy' and replace with 'beef'. The heading called 'Controversies' must be renamed 'Beeves'.
Third, they missed that I played centre back. Not a big deal you might think, but every link on the page gets me that much closer to Kevin Bacon.
Actually, there's loads that needs to be changed but you'll see for yourself as soon as you open the file. Start making edits and if they stick I promise not to buy the contents of an abandoned storage lock-up.
Cheers,
Max
p.s. If you see some of the facts have already been corrected, it's because my dudes nid and dropking1 got there first. They worked hard on the Wikipedia page. Too hard. Suspiciously hard, now that I think about it.
p.p.s. Don't forget to click on the PDF I've attached. It should be right below this line.

He was a striker when Max found him :)

2025-11-04 14:38:56 +0000 UTCI did not expect to find myself reading a false wikipedia page for a full hour, but it was nice. I will be curious to read an update in two or three seasons.

2025-08-07 00:11:31 +0000 UTCI can only imagine the amount of work that went into that wiki page. The reference links being added really sold it (that must have taken forever). Also a great way to recap for some newer readers with the new/name change split. Great job and thanks
