Only claim to notability is from technically passing WP:NFOOTBALL for playing 6 minutes of professional football for Mansfield. I could find no evidence of being able to pass WP:GNG. Almost a carbon copy of Wayne Stark who also made just one appearance for the same club. Spiderone 19:17, 1 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - agree that failing GNG comprehensively is more important than scraping by on NFOOTBALL. Giant Snowman 19:24, 1 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. My comment re. the other Mansfield players nominated also applies here. RobinCarmody (talk) 23:57, 1 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Our football notability guidelines are broken. We need to scrap the existing mess and writer something that creates a reasonable control on the number of articles created. Otherwise we will soon just be footballpedia.John Pack Lambert (talk) 21:03, 4 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep It's better to have a complete set of articles here for WP:NFOOTBALL than maintain a complete set on another site and a separate incomplete set here. Subject-specific guidelines are more important than WP:GNG as a reason to delete an article, there's no reason to say they shouldn't be as a reason to keep an article.
