Passes WP:FOOTY due to a single 14-minute substitute appearance in a supposed 'fully professional league' nearly 20 years ago. The rest of his soccer career was in the part-time lower divisions. Fails WP:GNG. Bring back Daz Sampson (talk) 14:36, 7 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Weak delete as an example of where notability guidelines rub poorly up against each other. NFOOTY is a bit of a meme, and permits functionally undeletable permastubs for people with parodically slim claims to notability like this. Ultimately, while I on the whole take the "passing one of GNG/SNG gives you a free pass" position, I think it fails for things like the weakest forms of sports notability.

Delete - there is longstanding consensus that scraping by on NFOOTBALL with one appearance is insufficient when GNG is failed so comprehensively. If sources are found which demonstrate GNG then please ping me. Giant Snowman 19:32, 7 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
