It looks like this player has a bright future. However, he doesn't yet pass WP:NFOOTY, and although there is some coverage out there I don't think it is enough to satisfy WP:GNG. On balance it is probably too soon for us to have an article on this footballer. — Mr. Stradivarius  (have a chat) 20:15, 7 August 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete - fails WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTBALL. GiantSnowman 14:11, 8 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep - meets WP:GNG - and not suprisingly as Ayr's youngest ever goal-scorer, . Nfitz (talk) 21:24, 11 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete - article about a footballer who hasn't played in a fully pro league (the only match he played was at the third tier in Scotland) or represented his country at senior level, which means that it fails WP:NFOOTBALL. Also fails WP:GNG. Mentoz86 (talk) 21:56, 13 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete - per nom. Fails WP:GNG and WP:NSPORT. Sir Sputnik (talk) 21:45, 14 August 2012 (UTC)
