Attn Andrew: AUS HB Allen Jr. stats problem?

[jcompton-Orlando]

I think Jermaine Allen Jr.'s stats have become munged.

His career page doesn't list any regular season carries before this season, which is definitely wrong. http://www.battyeweb.org.uk/fwl/careerrushing.php?name=4610

See, for instance, this season 19 game log and the blank entries under rushing and receiving which have to be him:

I'll have a look. We've had some problems with various players, as sometimes there are two players with the same name. When the stats go into the database, it is only the name that differentiates between the players, so it is destined to go wrong. I think the newer version of Sundby's programs give each player a unique ID number, which could be used in the database to ensure the right stats go to the right player.

I think I've sorted him out.  Not sure what had gone wrong, but I think he was deleted from the database after season 19 and when his stats came in for season 20, as there was no Jermaine Allen Jr in the player list, a new entry was created.
