I had previously prodded this because the first sentence said the player was semi-pro. I assumed that meant he would fail WP:ATHLETE. The creator of the article since removed that line and my prod.

The player plays for Lincoln United. I don't know if that's a pro team or not sufficient for the ATHLETE criteria. Seems to me that it's not. Shadowjams (talk) 21:28, 12 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
