Keep I thought maybe it would be better to make a stand for my article here as appose to the discussion page for Lawrence Yaku. Anyway, I have recently looked into it and accept that Wikipedia has a policy for players who haven't played league professional football but is the Blue Square Premier (England's 5th tier) considered a professional league at Wikipedia with todays extensive TV coverage on Setanta Sports as well as quite a few professional teams in that division. Just thought I would would mention this as Yaku's team, Hampton & Richmond Borough F.C. are contesting for a place in that league next season via their divisions play-off system. Thanks for considering what I have said. Craig Map (talk) 00:53, 29 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- No, the Conference National is not considered a fully professional league, and this player doesn't play in it anyway. Saying that his team might be in it next year and he might still be playing for them and might therefore play in it is blatant crystal balling anyway.....

  - I think a No would have been sufficient enough. Talk about rubbing salt into the wound. And they say the people of Wikipedia are a friendly bunch. Craig Map (talk) 22:57, 29 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
