Notability seems marginal, sourcing is minimal and poor, and the subject has requested deletion (OTRS ticket:2012021110004387). No strong opinion on this, just passing on the request. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 13:55, 12 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - He is a footballer who has made professional appearances, and so passes WP:NFOOTBALL. ItsZippy ^{(talk • contributions)} 16:53, 12 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- You state that he passes WP:NFOOTBALL yet you think it should be deleted........???? -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 09:23, 17 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  - You're right; I'm not quite sure what I meant there - I think it was a mistake. Anyway, I mean to say that the article should be deleted because he does not pass WP:NFOOTBALL. ItsZippy ^{(talk • contributions)} 11:50, 18 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - never played in a fully-pro league (failing WP:NFOOTBALL), no significant coverage (failing WP:GNG). However, it should be noted that the consensus at this AfD in January 2012 is that BLPs requesting deltion is not a valid claim. Giant Snowman 16:56, 13 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - He did not play any matches for Liverpool [1], and the top leagues in Ireland and Northern Ireland are not considered fully professional - which means that the subject fails WP:NFOOTY. Mentoz86 (talk) 10:00, 14 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Fails to meet our GNG or other guidelines.--Epeefleche (talk) 23:01, 17 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
