Notes
- Bean played in three matches in the abandoned 1939–40 Football League season. Joyce includes those appearances, giving Bean a total of 174,[2] but most sources, including his Lincoln City FC Archive statistics, do not (although, inconsistently, his prose profile at that site does).[1]
gollark: The major issue is the messiness, but it's also a bit unoptimized so if anyone has ideas for reducing query count that would help.
gollark: https://github.com/osmarks/myrkheim/blob/master/src/crawler.jsSeriously, this (and the rest of the code) is kind of a mess, anyone got suggestions for improving it?
gollark: No, actual regular expressions aren't, extended ones *are*.
gollark: Is it *possible* to do that by regex?
gollark: Oh, and it worked after a restart. Weird.
