Delete. Non-notable player of a non-notable sport (despite the "(football)" qualifier, Whelan actually plays "Futnet", which appears to be, essentially, volleyball played without the hands). Dricherby (talk) 23:39, 25 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Moot point given WP:GNG but WP:NFOOTBALL doesn't apply because, despite the "(football)" disambiguation, there's no claim that Whelan is a footballer. Dricherby (talk) 10:28, 28 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
