Nicky Eyre


Fails WP:BIO as hasn't played a first-team game for a professional team. For this reason I also nominate his team mates Glenn Wilson (footballer) and Simeon Jackson HornetMike 01:14, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

 * Keep  Simeon Jackson as he played for Rushden & Diamonds 17 times when they were in League 2, when R & D were a fully professional team. As for the others, a weak delete.Daemonic Kangaroo 05:59, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment Aren't Rushden & Diamonds still full-time pros despite relegation to the Conference? (Although that would still not make the league fully professional, there's at least three or four semi-pro teams in it). - fchd 06:26, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Wilson and Eyre only per WP:BIO.Catchpole 07:42, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep Jackson, weak delete of the others. WikiGull 09:05, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment - Woops, re: Jackson. My mistake. Re: the other two, whilst Rushden are presumably still professional, the Conference isn't as standard. As they've only played for them in the Conference, and don't have any other League appearances, they fail WP:BIO. HornetMike 12:21, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep - Rushden and Diamonds are Conference North but professional. Many teams in the lower Scottish Leagues (SFL 2 and 3) are both semi-professional and have lower crowds. I think this should stay. Gretnagod 00:14, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Eyre and Wilson, weakest keep possible for Jackson, as I don't feel League 2 players to be notable enough for a standalone article on Wikipedia. --Angelo 12:37, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep Simeon Jackson, he has made appearences in the Football League, a professional league, which is worthy of notability. -- Mattythewhite 16:17, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep Jackson - and Delete the others Kingjamie 18:04, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep all Rushden & Diamonds are still fully-professional, as is 75% of the Conference Superlinus 22:42, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment - So we're keeping Conference players now, are we? Blimey. HornetMike 15:09, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep All R+D are still a professional club, I really dont see the harm in allowing fans of the smaller professional teams to make squad navboxes. Thousands of people go to see teams like R+D every weekend and its not like Wikipedia is short of space.King of the North East 02:34, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
