It's been nine years since the last afd, but the same basic concerns remain. Storer has not played in a fully pro league or received significant coverage, meaning the article fails WP:NSPORT and WP:GNG. Sir Sputnik (talk) 21:21, 23 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete and SALT - fails WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTBALL. GiantSnowman 21:25, 23 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. Possible keep? After he serves his 8 match suspension for impersonating Luis Suárez, at least in one respect: Gloucestershire Echo, June 4, 2016, Sky Sports June 3, 2016, he will continue to play for Cheltenham Town F.C. which now is in Football League Two - unless they let him go, I suppose. His contract lasts until the end of this season according to this article: Transfermarkt Kyle Storer player profile. He also has a player profile on ESPN FC ESPN FC Kyle Storer profile, whereas perhaps he did not before his team's promotion. He was and maybe still is vice captain, for whatever that is worth. Presumably he will qualify for an article if he starts to play matches for a team in the Football League and any reliable source notices. The article does not amount to much now but perhaps it can be expanded if he begins to make a record in a fully professional league. Donner60 (talk) 06:41, 24 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - Fails NFOOTY as has not played senior international football nor played in a fully professional league. No indication that subject has garnered significant reliable coverage for any other achievements to satisfy GNG. May be notable in the future if he plays this season, but too soon at best.

  • Delete with a low bar for recreation- note that he has a contract with Cheltenham Town which is now in League Two, a fully professional league. All he needs to do is play for them once (likely, given he's the vice captain) in the new football season, and voila, meets NFOOTY. jcc (tea and biscuits) 20:54, 31 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
