- Comment Article is really lacking, did he not play any games for Burnley, Sheffield Wednesday or Scunthorpe? There are zero results found on the Burnley, Sheff, Scunthorpe websites for this name. Played before internet was a thing, so this really delves into offline sources and newspapers. Govvy (talk) 12:12, 28 February 2023 (UTC)
- No, he never played a first team game for any of those clubs -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 16:52, 3 March 2023 (UTC)
Delete - no evidence of notability. If sources are found please ping me. GiantSnowman 19:57, 1 March 2023 (UTC)
- Redirect to List of York City F.C. players (1–24 appearances) as ATD, following similar outcomes in other AFDs. GiantSnowman 20:02, 3 March 2023 (UTC)
- Delete: Per Nom. This person is apparently still alive so this is considered a BLP. A search did not produce anything to advance notability or have more than a glorified dictionary entry. -- Otr500 (talk) 14:59, 2 March 2023 (UTC)
- @Otr500: - he isn't still alive, he died in 2018 (now added to the article) -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 16:52, 3 March 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks -- Otr500 (talk) 17:14, 3 March 2023 (UTC)
