This player never played in a professional league, all of his Scottish League career was in the old Third Division. Echo2018c (talk) 21:12, 10 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Though player never played top flight football, he was still a notable figure in Inverness CT's history. Speaking for many-a fan of ICTFC (and not being bias as the article's author), it seems disrespectful for such an important and loved player in the club's history, fade away so soon after his death.

Delete was an unsourced BLP article until his unfortunate passing two days ago. Willing to accept he may be a notable player for Inverness CT, but notability is based on the existence of reliable secondary sources. Possibly best covered on the Inverness CT page?

Question...did he play on any Premier league or equivalent, team? Antonio Unrareat Martin (whhaaaatttttttt?) 12:14, 14 August, 2018 (UTC)
Answer No, fourth level of the Scottish League was the highest as such he played in. 86.169.171.227 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 15:50, 15 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Then, I'm sorry he died, my condolences to family and fans, but I have to vote delete.Antonio Multiple Goals Martin (whhaaaatttttttt?) 06:24, 17 August, 2018 (UTC)
Delete Doesn't meet WP:GNG or WP:NFOOTY. Every club has important players in their history, but that's insufficient to show notability for WP. Papaursa (talk) 18:29, 18 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
