Amjad Iqbal

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Non-notable footballer. Soccerbase page shows no sign of notability. Not in the PFA Premier + Football League Player's Records, so seems to have never played for a professional team. Mattythewhite 11:35, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

 * Amjad Iqbal is a prospective Pakistani international and among the few British Asians in football. He only turned professional for Farsley Celtic a few seasons back. I think its about time some non-League players are also given some form of recognition for the sake football.Suprah™ 08:26, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
 * So is that a keep !vote then.....? ChrisTheDude 08:39, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Being a prospective international (even for a weak national team) is irrelevant. Non-League footballers are given recognition, but only if they played in a higher league before. Punkmorten 09:05, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Has not played in a fully-professional league. Of course, reinstate if he ever plays for Pakistan or in League Two +. Number   5  7  08:29, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Fair enough. I will keep you lads updated if and when Amjad makes his Pakistan debut as he possesses dual Pakistani and British nationalities and is eligible for both, understandably his obvious choice would be Pakistan given he doesnt play in the Premiership and is already in his late 20s. So I am okay with Delete as long as it can be reinstated as soon as Amjad makes his debut, probably against Iraq in October 2007 in the World Cup preliminaries.Suprah™ 14:40, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
 * WP:DRV is your friend, in this instance. ArtVandelay13 16:34, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete for now as does not meet WP:BIO but do bring it back of course if he does play for Pakistan, which will make him notable. --Malcolmxl5 19:19, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
