These career totals are being corrected. The older archive entry for Micky Stead contains a known discrepancy and must not be used as a definitive figure. Its data is safely retained for reconciliation.
This is the archived career snapshot, not an automatically combined lifetime total. Some earlier seasons and cup records are incomplete; current-season matches are shown separately until each historical season has been reconciled. No unverified figures are presented as definitive club records.
