 * Delete -- We do not need articles on every minor league footballer, hardly even on theri clubs. The article is created by user:Primetime222, which would seem from the subject's nickname, to be an alias for the subject.  Accordingly this is autobiography, and a clear case of WP:COI.

 * Delete. WP:ATH is clear that you have to be fully professional. As a semi-professional it's close, but no cigar. Chris Neville-Smith (talk) 18:10, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete non-notable WP:ATHLETE failure with no independent coverage in reliable sources. -- Club Oranje T 09:55, 16 September 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete not a notable footballer Spiderone  12:16, 16 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete - not a notable footballer at all -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 12:26, 16 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete a long way off meeting WP:ATH or WP:GNG. --Jimbo[online] 13:52, 16 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete - Per nom. GauchoDude (talk) 03:50, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete, obviously. The original version of this article looked like a joke article, and it was only after the article was PRODded that the article's creator rewrote in a way that looks plausible. I think it may be a hoax, but anyway it's not notable. JamesBWatson (talk) 12:31, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Not a hoax, he is shown in the playing squad on the official Retford United website. But you are right that he has not played at a notable level -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 12:51, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
