Three years on, still fails WP:BLP1E/WP:NFOOTY/arguably WP:NOTNEWS, was only notable because of a one-off stunt. SportingFlyer  T · C  19:19, 23 May 2020 (UTC)

 * Keep While there may be a case on NFOOTY, he does however meet WP:GNG due to the coverage from 3rd party reliable sources. Furthermore, there have been coverage of him beyond 2017. But I also posit that nothing has changed from the original AFD verdict that would warrant deletion this time.  The C of E God Save the Queen!  ( talk ) 19:30, 23 May 2020 (UTC)
 * The original AfD was created as the event was unfolding, and the Goal coverage was just a look back at the one event, and the one event was minor (there's no article on the Sutton-Arsenal game.) WP:BLP1E trumps GNG. A redirect to Sutton United F.C. might be appropriate here. SportingFlyer  T · C  19:41, 23 May 2020 (UTC)


 * Keep Clearly meets GNG, and I don’t agree that this is a BLP1E case. WP:SUSTAINED is met as he is still getting coverage three years later . P-K3 (talk) 22:18, 23 May 2020 (UTC)

 * Keep - I thought he was non-notable at the last AFD, but I respect the consensus. GiantSnowman 08:15, 24 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep - there was more than just the 2017 pie incident to demonstrate GNG during the last AFD debate, such as his 2013 firing and his 2015 rehiring. Since the February 2017 AFD, there was significant international coverage in fall 2017, when he fined and banned by the FA, from the BBC in the UK, CBC in Canada, SBS in Australia, Indonesia, Germany, France. In the following years, there's been more coverage such as last year. I didn't see how this was WP:BLP1E at the time, and the international coverage since the last AFD surely further demonstrates this.
 * Keep passes WP:GNG.Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 06:53, 27 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep I had a look at the last AfD, that was surprisingly a popular AfD, I remember watching the events unfold on TV which was rather popular in the news at the time, also feel that the player passes WP:GNG. Govvy (talk) 16:13, 27 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Tentative keep. On balance, I think the guy just meets the GNG but he does fail NFOOTY. GNG overrides SNG so keep (just). No Great Shaker (talk) 20:55, 28 May 2020 (UTC)
