 * Delete - fails WP:ATHLETE and WP:GNG. GiantSnowman 12:52, 1 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment - for the benefit of anyone happening upon this AfD who is not a football (soccer) expert, I should point out that the basis of the nom is that the player has never played in a fully-professional league. The highest level at which he has played is in the Conference National, which is a semi-professional league..... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 12:55, 1 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. The highest-ranking team this fella has played for is Altrincham, which is a part time team, therefore he fails WP:ATHLETE. Google searches only bring up trivial match reports and a collection of profile pages and Wiki mirrors, none of which are enough to satisfy general notability guidelines.

 * Delete. per nom and per ChrisTheDude as Conference is not full professional. Eddie6705 (talk) 17:59, 1 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete as he does not meet the inclusion criterion for athletes as he has not played in a fully professional league. --Malcolmxl5 (talk) 20:08, 1 September 2009 (UTC)
