The result was   speedy delete under criterion A7. Arguably it might be under G3 for hoaxing, but I certainly don't see a credible assertion that he's a notable sportsman. —C.Fred (talk) 22:29, 4 March 2011 (UTC)

I'm not much on footy, but this looks like it doesn't qualify under any possible standard I can imagine, shamelessly low though the barrier is for athletes. Orange Mike  &#x007C;   Talk  00:21, 4 March 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete I had BLP Prod'ed this article and had considered a Prod for WP:NFOOTY, but decided to BLP it instead to give the author more time to find and list sources to bring article to standards. Enfcer (talk) 00:38, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete I have to be very careful here, in order not to tread on Lloyd Evans' feelings if he is serious about his sporting career, but I think this is a joke, and a rather unkind one by his mates. Note, by the way, that St David's is a very small place where the more popular form of football is rugby union. To fail consistently to get into the team for association football suggests a lack of acknowledged footballing ability. AJHingston (talk) 12:23, 4 March 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete per above. "Evans moved to Croesgoch from Blackford in March 2005 for £2.50"? What is this? Herostratus (talk) 19:24, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
 * A clue that we may be taking this too seriously. I might also have pointed out, for the benefit of those who are not British, that his second activity, darts, is a game played mainly on premises licensed for the consumption of alcohol and is not normally associated with an athletic physique. The second sentence of the introduction may possibly be an oblique way of saying that he spends much of his time in the pub. Unfortunately Wikipedia is not a place for jokes.
