Per User:TimothyBlue ''No sources in article are IS RS with SIGCOV. BEFORE showed nothing with IS RS SIGCOV addressing the subject directly and indepth.''

User:Ortizesp has contested this statement.

I endorsed deletion after searching BNA and finding no relevant hits; all I found was local news about namesakes, announcements about petty crimes, adverts, weddings, police witness statements... Nothing about a footballer from West Brom. WP:SPORTBASIC requires multiple sources showing detailed coverage. I oppose redirecting to List of West Bromwich Albion F.C. players as he is not notable enough to be on that list. Is he even the most notable person by the name of "James Pittaway"?

 * Redirect to 1889–90 West Bromwich Albion F.C. season where he is mentioned. GiantSnowman 18:33, 12 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Redirect to season article per above. It's a reasonable search term. His surname got namechecked playing and scoring for West Brom's reserves that season; in those days, reports rarely used given names. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 15:06, 14 April 2023 (UTC)
