Do Not Delete: played in an Amstel Cup game for fully professional RKC Waalwijk against TOP Oss,^[1] thus meeting requirement two of WP:FOOTYN. Oli (talk) 12:02, 10 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment, can you provide a reliable source for that? WP:FOOTYN is only a guideline, the notability criteria is at WP:BIO#ATHLETE. --Jimbo^[online] 12:08, 10 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Do Not Delete: Does this count as a reliable source? http://soccernet.espn.go.com/match?id=196573&cc=5739 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.159.110.203 (talk) 14:03, 10 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I think so. --Jimbo^[online] 14:49, 10 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

He plays professionally, what's the problem? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.16.97.233 (talk) 18:47, 10 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

As stated above...He currently plays for Cambridge United in the Conference National which is not a fully-pro league. - in his article that is the only appearance he is credited with, thus failing WP:ATHLETE. --Jimbo^[online] 18:51, 10 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
