Thanks for all your efforts. The following is a list of Chelsea matches where your data doesn’t agree with other sources.
19/08/1953 Man U v Chelsea Att: 28,936
28/08/1953 Chelsea v Charlton Att: 49,245
10/10/1953 Sheff Wed v Chelsea Att: 32,217
24/10/1953 WBA v Chelsea Att: 32,254
06/02/1954 Aston Villa v Chelsea Att: 29,452
20/02/1954 Sunderland v Chelsea CR Thomson was Chelsea goalkeeper
27/02/1954 Chelsea v Sheff W CR Thomson was Chelsea goalkeeper Blunstone was Chelsea No. 11
19/08/1953 my source has an attendance of 30,759
28/08/1953 your are right! (though my source lists this game played on 29/08/53)
10/10/1953 my source has 32,214
24/10/1953 my source has 35,254
06/02/1954 my source has 20,625
20/02/1954 you are right!
27/02/1954 you are right!
I have updated the documents already!
Regarding attendances figures, this is what my source says: “Football League attendances are taken from the official ledgers, with permission of the Football League”.
Could you tell me what your source is? I could then ask ENFA (Tony Brown) directly on the website whether these attendances are erroneous.
1: Cardiff participations do not add up to 462. I find there are 2 participations plus.
2: Liverpool participations are minus one. Perhaps the reason for this is that in the roster Harold jones is depicted two times, one having 25/6 and one at the end having 1/0. Maybe the second entry is for William Henry Jones.
3: Portsmouth participations do not add up to 462, they are minus 5.
4: Preston NE participations are minus 4. I don’t count John Robert Watson because there is no such player in the roster. But the problem is solved if these four participations are actually attributed to John Robert Wilson.
5: Tottenham participations do not add up to 462, they are minus 7.
6: There is no Malcolm Clews in Wolves roster although is depicted as transferred to Lincoln on 1st February.
7: Tiny mistake on week one Burnley-Wolves attendance (328,22)
Would you be interested on attendances averages of every venue-stadium or do you already have this information? It would be interesting to see such a thing although i know that many times the numbers were not exact or real.
1) Cardiff: Ken Hollyman had 2 appearances (instead of 4).
2) Liverpool: 25/6 is indeed William Henry Jones, not Harold Jones. Harold Jones is 1/0.
3) Portsmouth: the missing 5 participations are Norman Uprichard 2/0, Charles Mortimore 1/0, John Davies 1/0, Martin Reagan 1/0. [Portsmouth fielded so many players that season that my source couldn’t fit all of them in the sheet and I overlooked the asterisk at the bottom of the page).
4) Preston NE: yes indeed, it should have been John Robert Wilson, not Watson!
5) Tottenham: I did overlook George Hutchinson (5/1) and Derek King (2/0).
6) Wolves: Malcolm “Maxie” Clews should have been part of the goalkeepers section … he joined Wolves already on 1 March 1948! I will add him now to all Wolves rosters since 1949-50.
7) corrected!

Hello Wolfgang
Here’s what i found
1: Cardiff participations do not add up to 462. I find there are 2 participations plus.
2: Liverpool participations are minus one. Perhaps the reason for this is that in the roster Harold jones is depicted two times, one having 25/6 and one at the end having 1/0. Maybe the second entry is for William Henry Jones.
3: Portsmouth participations do not add up to 462, they are minus 5.
4: Preston NE participations are minus 4. I don’t count John Robert Watson because there is no such player in the roster. But the problem is solved if these four participations are actually attributed to John Robert Wilson.
5: Tottenham participations do not add up to 462, they are minus 7.
6: There is no Malcolm Clews in Wolves roster although is depicted as transferred to Lincoln on 1st February.
7: Tiny mistake on week one Burnley-Wolves attendance (328,22)
