Non-notable footballer - no independent refs, and I can't find any significant coverage online. Probably a case of WP:TOOSOON. AndrewWTaylor (talk) 19:40, 19 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - It is very soon indeed. However, WP:NFOOTY is very clear. A player or manager is notable if they have played in a match for a fully professional side in a qualifying cup. Hunt has played exactly one game for the EFL cup (now called the Carabao cup due to sponsorship), which is listed in the qualifying leagues for football. [1]. So, based on WP:NFOOTY being very clear - he passes. I was going to vote delete until I checked the guidelines and list of qualifying leagues. Ross-c (talk) 19:54, 19 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I concur with Ross-c, as Alex Hunt has played in a competitive game between two teams from fully-professional leagues, specifically a game between Sheffield Wednesday F.C. of the EFL Championship and Sunderland A.F.C. of EFL League One (see WP:NFOOTBALL and WP:FPL).

Keep As noted above he passes NFOOTY. Dunarc (talk) 22:48, 20 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment keep !voters are encouraged to note that according to 2017 consensus, SNGs in general and WP:NSPORTS in particular do not supersede GNG. While, as a bright line rule, NSPORT subguidelines are useful to indicate which players are likely to meet GNG, it is not an exemption, and especially for more recent athletes where coverage is increasingly online, !voters are encouraged to actually find sources. — Alpha3031 (t • c) 03:33, 22 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
