- Looks hoaxy to me. Delete. NASCAR Fan24(radio me!) 21:49, 4 October 2007 (UTC)
- Comment No record in either my definitive Torquay United book or my book on all professional footballers since 1945, but in the depths of my memory this might be a player that changed his name, though even then he would have a page under the other name.WikiGull 22:27, 4 October 2007 (UTC)
- Delete can't find him on Neil Brown's site of players either (specifically [1] and [2]). Unless someone can scratch up a source he's completely unverifiable. Nanonic 00:03, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
- Delete. Yes, completely unverifiable. If someone does come up with a source then it can of course be restored but at present, no. --Malcolmxl5 01:38, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
- Delete no record on allfootballers.com either, so if this guy does exist and was on the books of those clubs then he never made it to the first team and therefore fails WP:BIO. The reference to his family suggests the article may have been created by one of his (grand?)-children ChrisTheDude 07:40, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
- Delete per research of Nanonic and ChrisTheDude. пﮟოьεԻ 57 08:15, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
