Josh Green (English Footballer)[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This footballer has never played in a fully professional league, meaning that he fails the subject-specific WP:NFOOTBALL, and has never been the subject of coverage in reliable independent third-party sources, meaning that he fails the wider WP:GNG. PROD was removed by article creator with no reason given -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 15:57, 30 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

For the exact same reasons I am also nominating

Delete both - neither has received significant coverage or played in a fully pro league, meaning both articles fail WP:GNG snd WP:NSPORT. Sir Sputnik (talk) 16:18, 30 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete both - players who have not played in a fully professional league nor senior international football so fail WP:NFOOTY still stands. No indication of any other achievements garnering significant reliable coverage to pass WP:GNG either. Fenix down (talk) 06:44, 3 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete both - fail WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTBALL. Giant Snowman 18:55, 3 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep both, I know Josh personally myself and if you looked at his twitter he has signed for fleetwood and also through knowing him, I can confirm that mason is indeed his step brother. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Stfctippy (talk • contribs) 19:20, 4 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Green remains non-notable until such time as he actually plays in a fully professional league, not just signs for a team. And being his brother does not confer notability on Springthorpe, who has likewise never played in a fully pro league (and looks very unlikely to any time soon, given that he is without a club) -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 21:22, 4 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete both. Guidelines are pretty clear on footie. Szzuk (talk) 19:59, 5 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
