Delete - fails WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTBALL. Giant Snowman 16:17, 4 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

DO NOT DELETE - this footballer came into the English Professional Leagues via Ghana and then Cyprus which has attracted media attention (I have added a couple of citations and could add more if required), plus he has been on the bench in many League games at Northampton and in FA cup matches at Yeovil and so is on the cusp of his first professional league appearance, plus he has represented both Northampton Town and Yeovil Town in many reserve matches and, in the case of Yeovil, in the Somreset Cup as well. Furthermore, the Academy he founded is sending young African players to Europe as well as making an important contribution to a poor community in Accra and running a semi-professional Ghanaian league team - see www.ghana-football-academy.org. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Geogpmsp (talk • contribs) 17:19, 5 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
