There is nothing notable about international players playing in the championship. There would be a notable list of England Players picked while playing in the championship but this list is just too indiscriminate. => Spudgfsh (Text Me!) 22:49, 3 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Listcruft at its finest. Number 57 23:45, 3 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - Hugely out of date, unreferenced, and if it was complete, it would be absolutely enormous. As per Number 57; pure listcruft. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 23:52, 3 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - Listcruft, with no reliable sources provided for the playing stats included in the article. JMHamo (talk) 15:18, 4 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - given that the inclusion criteria at the top state that players don't even have to earned their caps while playing in the Championship, the article represents a non-notable intersection i.e. players who have been capped at some point in their career and who have played in the Championship at some point in their career. Joe Hart, for example, has played in the Premier League throughout his entire international career. And before any one suggests it, even if the list was restricted to players who had been capped while playing in the Championship, it would still not be a notable subject. Even though it is the second level league in England, the Championship is a much stronger league than many countries' top-level leagues, and dozens of international players come from overseas to play for Championship clubs i.e. it isn't an unusual event -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 18:03, 4 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - pure LISTCRUFT, not a notable topic. GiantSnowman 10:30, 5 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete -- If this were about non-Premiership players who appeared for the national side, while with that employment, this might be a useful article, but it is liable to collect players who used to play for Premiership clubs, but have moved to lesser clubs at the end of their careers.

  • Delete - total listcruft, no indication that being an international player who has played in the Championship has attracted any notable discussion. Fenix down (talk) 12:13, 6 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
