 * Delete While you can be notable for not being something (Anna Anderson? Perkin Warbeck?) it's certainly not automatic, and being mentioned in a couple of football history lists isn't really comparable to pretending to be royalty. He fails WP:NFOOTY and WP:GNG, and merits at most a note on Arsenal's article. This personal web page gives a good account of what is going on. --Colapeninsula (talk) 16:10, 25 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete per nomination. EricSerge (talk) 18:04, 25 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete If Elcoat had actually gone around passing himself off as a sports manager and gained something from it, there might be a way he was notable, but accidentlly being put in a list the way he was is not such a thing.John Pack Lambert (talk) 04:05, 26 June 2014 (UTC)
