I also noticed some other things:

• Sami El-Abd DOB is 01/01/1987 in-game, but several other sources online has 01/01/1988.
• Jimmy Muitt's 2019/20 history is in the wrong order
• Jordan Cheadle's 2021/22 history is in the wrong order

• Strange - I'm sure I set his position when I created James Dickson back in 2020! I've set his position as the midfielder/attacking midfielder he's played when I've seen him in friendlies
• As almost no players transition from Dorking Reserves to the 1st team, and as a lot of the players don't go onto play in a semi pro league, I don't tend to focus too much on the Reserves, unless the players start training with the 1st team etc. This is evidenced by the fact that Backhurst (a goalkeeper) hasn't made any benches (including in friendlies to the best of my knowledge) despite the absence of Dan Lincoln at times. Having said that, I can verify that he is at DWFC so I've added him.
• Re: the stadium plans, the club is awaiting planning permission which is due 2 November. Although it's highly likely to be granted, you'll understand I want to wait until it's properly confirmed before adding it to the game. Local residents complain about Meadowbank all the time, so there could well be changes to the plans.
• Ryan Seager signed a 2 year deal with Hungerford Town, and Dorking signed him after 1 year as he had a clause in his contract that allowed him to go under certain circumstances after a year. Dorking definitely paid a fee, but that fee was undisclosed (I'd heard it was £25K, but that was a rumour). On reflection, I've amended the amount on Ryan Seager's transfer history from £25K to undisclosed.  In terms of the record, the only fee Marc White has disclosed is the £15,000 they paid for Jason Prior - that is in the Dorking Wanderers record in the database, but isn't pulling through to the game for some reason, so probably needs raising as a bug.
• Dom Plank (now at Wolves) only played and scored in friendlies which don't count towards the record. Only official 1st team games count. Incidentally, while I was making the other tweaks I've mentioned, I updated the oldest goalscorer to Barry Fuller following his goal against Oxford City in the play off semi last year. Could have sworn I'd already done that!
• As Dean has said, there is very little information about the academy - I at least need to know their ages so I can make sure I'm not putting underage players in the game. I keep an eye on any U18 players who are given a squad number, a place on the first team bench, train with the first team or who get talked about by Marc White and add them when I have a basic level of information. If you have any more detailed information, I'd be happy to add it!

 

• Nice, thanks!
• I see. I just saw on Transfermarkt that he had joined the club
• Understandable
• Ok, I just saw the Cup games on Bunch of Amateurs. I guees you have better control on that than I have! 
• I can't provide any more detailed information. I tried finding some on the players I've heard about, but with little to no luck. Luca Ash-Brazier made his debut last season, but I can't find his DOB. Freddie Leather signed a scholarship deal together with Dom Plank, but DOB is hard to find on him as well. (Same age as Plank, but hard to tell when in 2006 he was born) https://www.dorkingwanderers.com/post/dorking-wanderers-youth-development-scholars

Hi. 

A couple of observations at Dorking. 
 

• Is James Dickson's position random? 
• Callum Backhurst is missing from the reserves, and is on a free transfer. 
• Marc White said there was work going on Meadowbank to meet the League Requirements before March 31st 2023. The only details I've found was this from their website:

  "AWAY END UPGRADE - WE'RE A WORK IN PROGRESS SO PLEASE BEAR WITH US!

  Ground improvement works to be completed March 2023, including:

   Away Standing:

  - New 1200 Spectator Terrace

  - Improved Food Outlets

  - Additional Toilet Facilities

  Thank you for your patience whilst these works are being completed."  ( https://www.dorkingwanderers.com/visiting-supporters )

This doesn't seem to be in-game
 

• Record transfer fee paid is missing (Seager isn't it?)
• Youngest player and goalscorer is Dom Plank
• The club have a decent academy setup - but the U18 squad is empty - Why is that?
