PROD contested by the article's creator. The subject fails WP:NFOOTBALL as they have not played in a competitive match between two clubs from fully professional leagues. WP:GNG is also failed as the subject has not received significant coverage. LTFC 95 ( talk) 20:47, 5 July 2020 (UTC) reply

  Keep on what grounds......? -- ChrisTheDude ( talk) 07:21, 6 July 2020 (UTC) reply

• Comment My original view was keep because he has played professionally for Norwich City, however if he has not played any professional games then I will change to delete. Devokewater ( talk) 09:22, 6 July 2020 (UTC) reply

• He has definitely not played professionally. He has only played for Norwich's under 23 team -- ChrisTheDude ( talk) 09:41, 6 July 2020 (UTC) reply

• Delete - fails WP:NFOOTBALL and WP:GNG. I have removed the career stats table as the stats were fake (he has 100% not played 20 games in the Premier League) -- ChrisTheDude ( talk) 07:21, 6 July 2020 (UTC) reply
• Delete - fails WP:NFOOTBALL and WP:GNG. Article was created by Ciaren's maw (adding in fake stats as well) which means there is conflict of interest issues here as well. Dougal18 ( talk) 10:00, 6 July 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Strongly suspect the creation of the article is part of a campaign to find him a new club...... -- ChrisTheDude ( talk) 10:06, 6 July 2020 (UTC) reply
• Delete non notable, PR Devokewater ( talk) 10:45, 6 July 2020 (UTC) reply

• Delete Due to not playing professionally and therefore failing the notability guidelines for sports players and also because the COI editing to the article that included adding fake stats to it. -- Adamant1 ( talk) 17:21, 17 July 2020 (UTC) reply
• Snow delete. This article has absolutely no prospect whatsoever of surviving AfD, and it's inappropriate and cruel to its subject to draw the process out until 24 July.— S Marshall  T/ C 17:51, 17 July 2020 (UTC) reply
• Delete - fails GNG and NFOOTBALL. Giant Snowman 07:39, 18 July 2020 (UTC) reply
