Comment: I understand that the Maltese Premier League isn’t a fully professional league as it states. My issue with that is that not only he is a former coach or a former player who coached and played on a non-professional league, but he is also a convicted criminal whom he bribed a player and charged with match manipulation and bribery. As for that, even as a non-professional coach, with a criminal record, I will let the discussion go on as I’m going to be neutral on that. Ivan Milenin (talk) 05:12, 3 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Additional Comment: I am not questioning how not notable he is, but again, as a non-notable coach, he is also a convicted criminal, as he committed bribery and match manipulation, as sources say. Ivan Milenin (talk) 22:34, 3 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- @Ivan Milenin: If there is significant coverage on the subject then he would pass WP:GNG regardless of what league he played or coached in. For him to pass, the article needs more sources that are not trivial mentions from reliable sources. As it stands, the article does not pass GNG. Alvaldi (talk) 10:22, 4 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete does not meet our inclusion criteria for football coaches. The convictions do not even come close to meeting our inclusion criteria for criminals.John Pack Lambert (talk) 20:55, 5 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Question: Okay, so if he did fail the notability guidelines for a coach, then what are the notability guidelines for criminals in order for this article to be included? Even if he didn't play or coach in a non-professional league, how come some reliable sources such as Times of Malta tell me that he had been convicted for bribery and match manipulation?
