Semi-pro Scottish footballer with no evidence to support a claim to WP:SPORTBASIC or WP:GNG. The interview cited in the article is published by Dunfermline Athletic, his employer at the time, so is clearly not independent. In my WP:BEFORE, I found Daily Record 1 and Daily Record 2, both of which are trivial mentions. This player is an internet-era footballer in a developed country. If significant coverage is not found online then I highly doubt that he is notable. Spiderone^{(Talk to Spider)} 19:37, 17 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - no evidence of notability. If sources are found please ping me. Giant Snowman 20:57, 17 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - As far as I can see does not meet notability. The highest level he played at was the lowest tier of the Scottish League system and he does not seem to have generated significant coverage then or at any other point in his career as a footballer. Dunarc (talk) 20:53, 18 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Article fails WP:GNG. Jogurney (talk) 14:12, 23 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: An article on a journeyman around the SPFL semi-pro basement league and beneath. (I watched at least one game in which the subject played in SPFL League Two.) As others have said above, the given sources are a brief Q&A apprenticeship piece on a club site and passing mentions. Nothing in the article text or elsewhere indicates attained biographical notability here. AllyD (talk) 20:49, 24 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
