Suspected hoax; a search for Barry Cook and Melbourne Victory brings up nothing but a wikipedia mirror, not to mention that someone who is apparently 17 probably hasn't been playing professional football for at least 6 years. PirateMink 02:55, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

  • Super Strong Delete A very obvious and unimaginative load of nonsense, but not, strictly speaking, the patent variety. RMHED (talk) 03:01, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete . Obvious hoax. Tend to think that a sixteen year old who played for both Celtic and Rangers might have got at least some coverage. Additional thought: try adding add up all the seasons he has allegedly played. FlowerpotmaN·(t) 03:46, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

  • Speedy as nonsense per CSD G1 or G3. --Jayron32|talk|contribs 04:11, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

  • Speedy delete, G3 per TPH. Obviously somebody has a pretty active imagination (author's username is Barry9191). Blueboy96 06:38, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
