Fails WP:NFOOTY, having not played or managed in a fully professional league, or played international football. No indication of significant coverage to otherwise satisfy WP:GNG. Jellyman (talk) 21:56, 29 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep - on the basis of WP:GNG. See [1] [2] [3] [4] [5], among others, for example of WP:SIGCOV. There's likely print coverage from his time as a player as well, considering the length and breadth of his playing career. 21.colinthompson (talk) 01:11, 30 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - meets GNG; needs improving to reflect this, not deleting. GiantSnowman 09:02, 30 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep on WP:GNG grounds. There are Irish players who don't pass WP:GNG but we've had an influx of misses recently, probably due to over-reliance on SNGs: the top flight of Irish football has more than adequate coverage to keep articles like these.
