Career statistics table[edit]

The figures don't add up! The Total columns at the RH end of the rows are mostly correct (except for 2013-14 with Accrington Stanley, where his appearances should be 19, not 20), but the Total rows are incorrect (except for the years Aldred was with Carlisle United). Look, for example, at the years Aldred was with Workington and Watford ... the Total should show the same as the "Conference North" row - but the Total row is all zeros! Similarly, his appearances for Stockport County, Inverness CT and Colchester United should total 11 - but the cell shows zero; and his appearances for Torquay Utd, Barrow and Acc'ton Stanley should total 40 - but the cell shows 29!

I fixed the column totals so that they now add up correctly ... but there's now a discrepancy with the info box, where Aldred has supposedly made 59 appearances and scored 2 goals for Acc Stan - when the Career stats shows only 29 appearances and no goals!

I edited the table and used "Show preview" to ensure all was in order, and indeed it was - but when I saved, the table moved to References (even though I was editing career stats), and the widths of the first and second columns have gone haywire! Help!!
