Person who has played for a debatebly notable American Football team in the UK for 2 years. Article fails to state why this person is notable. Article only has 3 references. 2 of the 3 are to the team's own website. The third is a local free-sheet newspaper. A news and web search on Google turns up nothing further of value. I'm inclined to suggest that IF this person's sports career was ever to take off and they became truly notable, most of the article as it stands would become trivial detail. What is left, could if necessary, be re-created very quickly Pit-yacker (talk) 10:58, 27 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

EDIT: There seems to be problems with Yellow Advertiser's website so here is a link to the Google cache of the article: [1] Its worth note that Lee Millar gets a single mention (as part of a list of other players) in "paragraph" 10 of 11. Pit-yacker (talk) 11:19, 27 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Not finding any non-trivial coverage of Millar. The sources provided are either not independent and/or consist of passing references. Cbl62 (talk) 06:11, 28 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Fails WP:GNG with lack of significant coverage in multiple WP:INDEPENDENT sources. Own team's website does not count.—Bagumba (talk) 22:22, 30 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
