John Solari has been elevated to reserve goal keeper for the Newcastle Jets after the transfer of Mark Birighitti to Varese. Solari will be named on the team sheet and start on the bench in the next game on February 6. Datasmack (talk) 20:54, 27 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

WP:NSPORT explicitly says that it only applies to footballers who have actually played. Simply being named to the substitutes bench is insufficient. Sir Sputnik (talk) 21:16, 27 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - fails WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTBALL. Giant Snowman 21:14, 27 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - fails WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTBALL. Simione001 (talk) 22:08, 27 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - fails WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTBALL. Starting on the bench isn't enough - the guideline is purposefully restrictive in that regard. When he's played a game, we'll talk. St★lwart¹¹¹ 00:25, 28 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete – WP:NFOOTY explicitly states that a footballer must play in a WP:FPL or FIFA tier 1 match, not merely be named to the squad. WP:GNG also failed. — Jkudlick ^tc_s 02:01, 28 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Player fails WP:NFOOTY as has not played in a fully professional league, nor senior international football. No indication of any other achievements that have garnered sufficient, significant coverage to satisfy WP:GNG. Fenix down (talk) 15:32, 29 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Fails WP:NFOOTBALL easily (as well as WP:GNG). Hasn't played one match. StewdioMACK (talk) 15:20, 31 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Fails WP:NFOOTBALL as he hasn't played in a Fully Professional League and doesn't have any international caps. IJA (talk) 15:11, 3 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
