WP:TOOSOON, player has played only one match for St Mirren F.C. in 2021 and looks not notable enough per WP:NFOOTBALL — Amkgp 💬  19:53, 6 March 2021 (UTC)

Withdraw nomination per discussion above. — Amkgp 💬  14:20, 7 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep - the player passed WP:NFOOTBALL a few hours ago, making his debut in the top tier of Scottish football. We give leeway in such cases because of the likelihood that they will build on such appearances. Deleting articles that only just pass the SNG should only really apply in cases where the player has been playing outside of the professional level for several years and is extremely unlikely to ever play at that level again. Otherwise, we will just end up AfDing every single player on the day that they make their debut and it would get silly. Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 22:59, 6 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep - per Spiderone. Being St Mirren's youngest player, there will undoubtedly be SIGCOV of him soon. Also, he passes the SNG. Microwave Anarchist (talk) 23:02, 6 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep - He's passed the notability guidelines you cited by playing in a fully professional league. JonnyDKeen (talk) 23:06, 6 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep as above, meets NFOOTBALL. Nomination is fundamentally flawed and shows a deep misunderstanding of NFOOTBALL. GiantSnowman 09:25, 7 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep - there is an increasing consensus to delete articles on players whose only claim to notability is one very brief professional appearance and whose professional career is clearly over, but nominating an article on this basis within hours of a player making his debut is clearly nonsensical -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 09:58, 7 March 2021 (UTC)
