Contested PROD. Concern was Article about a footballer who fails WP:GNG, and who has not played in a fully pro league. No reason was given for contesting. Sir Sputnik (talk) 17:26, 14 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I am also nominating the following articles for the same reason. Sir Sputnik (talk) 17:28, 14 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - all fail WP:NFOOTBALL and WP:GNG. Giant Snowman 13:58, 15 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - new evidence has come to light that the Cypriot league is fully-pro, meaning he meets WP:NFOOTBALL. Giant Snowman 20:57, 22 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

On the basis that this league appears to be professional, I say Keep, and if the league's semi-professionalism becomes more apparent, relist it as a new AfD. Stu.W UK (talk) 17:14, 19 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - as nominator. In light of new sources provided at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Robbie Gibbons‎ and listed at WP:FPL, I am now satisfied that the Cypriot First League is fully pro, and I am prepared to withdraw the nomination. Sir Sputnik (talk) 18:39, 19 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
