He never was the manager of Marseille (between 1929 and 1932, it was Paul Seitz, Peter Farmer and Charlie Bell ;  Rashinseita (talk) 00:34, 3 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Sure looks like a hoax. The article creator was indeffed soon after this page was made (both in 2010). User:力 (power~enwiki,  π,  ν ) 00:36, 3 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete not speedy-delete. Olympique de Marseille managers had the name since 2007, so it probably was based on a hoax (or misinformation) on a defunct fan site.  I can't find any sign a person of this name existed, and the current official site for the football club says he was never the manager. User:力 (power~enwiki,  π,  ν ) 00:45, 3 July 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete he wasn't OM manager then, and he doesn't look to pass WP:GNG (as it's not even clear what he did actually do). Joseph2302 (talk) 09:08, 3 July 2021 (UTC)
