Comment Is the Isthmian League not a professional league? I know it's within the English football system, but I'm not familiar with that far down the systsem. crassic!^[talk] 15:18, 26 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment No it's a semi-pro league, plus it's regional rather than national so a player cannot be kept on that basis. --Jimbo^[online] 15:29, 26 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per above. crassic!^[talk] 15:56, 26 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment He has been on loan at Wingate & Finchley and may make his debut next week. It would make sense not to delete the article until after that game Cg29692 (talk) 16:41, 26 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Being on loan at Wingate & Finchley doesn't make him notable. Keeping him on the fact that he might make his debut next week is crystal-ballery. --Jimbo^[online] 16:45, 26 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Fails WP:Athlete. --Malcolmxl5 (talk) 02:52, 27 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Crystal-ballery it may be but I only request that the article is kept for another 6 days, besides it has been mentioned on the Barnet website that Tabiri will play before the end of the season link Cg29692 (talk) 18:27, 27 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Reply No it doesn't it says he's been earmarked for a first-team outing, and thats not even from the manager --Jimbo^[online] 18:59, 27 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Reply Generally "earmarked" does mean a first-team outing is likely, and Dennis Signy is unlikely to be making stuff up. Cg29692 (talk) 17:30, 28 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It doesn't guarantee anything does it, though? The article was written over a fortnight ago, he heasn't played yet, and there's now only one match of the season to go....... ChrisTheDude (talk) 17:42, 28 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
