Delete per nom; non-notable manager. GiantSnowman 16:49, 15 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. A quick Google search gives us some substantial coverage from sources such as The Independent and The Times. There's plenty of scope for this article to be improved, what with him being the guy who brought Gazza to Kettering and all. Bettia(bring on the trumpets!) 11:19, 20 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete non-notable football manager of amateur clubs. Amateur footballers are non-notable, so managers are. --Angelo (talk) 08:27, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Comment He has some notability from the Gazza deal (which seems to have coincided with him selling Kettering) and there's the Independent article which is basically about him. The Times article does point out he saved the club from liquidation, but is largely about Gazza. He is also involved with Footballcv.com. The company's wikilink may need deleting, but it does make some claims of notability, although I'm not sure if these are genuine or if the 'as featured on/in' are simply puff pieces. Still not sure that means he needs an article though Stu.W UK (talk) 09:24, 22 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Sources should be third-party, reliable and cover the subject in detail. This is not the case, since Mallinger's name is mentioned mostly in sources regarding Gascoigne's time with Kettering, where Gascoigne is the main subject, not Mallinger. --Angelo (talk) 10:20, 22 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
