• Delete per WP:NFOOTY failure. Number 5 7 08:15, 2 September 2021 (UTC) reply
• Delete I looked through the sources, there were quite a few there, but it's pretty much routine stuff, nothing extensive, nothing remotely interesting!! Fails GNG if you ask me. Govvy ( talk) 12:08, 2 September 2021 (UTC) reply
• Delete - WP:GNG requires significant coverage from sources independent of the subject but I can barely find anything outside of Norwich City's own website Canaries.co.uk Spiderone ^{(Talk to Spider)} 21:34, 2 September 2021 (UTC) reply
• Keep passes GNG, even if he fails NFOOTY. And being reserve goalkeeper for a pro side must mean something in my opinion.-- Ortizesp ( talk) 22:26, 2 September 2021 (UTC) reply
• Keep As per comment above. Finch14 ( talk) 07:11, 3 September 2021 (UTC) reply

• Delete. GNG is the only relevant guideline here and it is definitely not met. JoelleJay ( talk) 16:58, 4 September 2021 (UTC) reply
• Keep passes GNG - there's lots of coverage, which isn't surprising as a backup keeper for a top Championship team. Such as this. Nfitz ( talk) 20:55, 5 September 2021 (UTC) reply
  • How is that significant coverage? The sum total of info on him there is

    The 20-year-old goalkeeper visited Youngs Park to present end-of-season awards to the Aylsham under-12s and give the club's goalkeepers some coaching tips.
    Oxborough was capped at under-16 and U17 level by England when he was younger and was training with the Canaries first team during the second half of last season.
    City's U23s keeper was also rewarded with a new contract in April, extending his deal until 2020, with the option of a further year.

    Barely 3 sentences covering his youth activity (plus a quote from him and someone else) in a local paper -- almost anyone could achieve that. JoelleJay ( talk) 17:51, 6 September 2021 (UTC) reply
    • I count 6 of 8 paragraphs. Scroll down past the ads. Nfitz ( talk) 21:24, 6 September 2021 (UTC) reply
      • Do you mean the quotes from Oxborough himself, which definitely don't contribute to notability?

        'I played my youth football for Hemsby Hornets, a time I will always remember,' the City youngster said of his visit. 'It's great to see youngsters here at Aylsham celebrating their season.
        'I didn't have facilities like these at Youngs Park when I was playing at this age so the boys and girls are very lucky.'

        Or the quote from the U16 player that just namedrops him?

        'Aylsham will always be my club and it was great to join in with all the young goalkeepers,' said Blair. 'It is good to see that the club hold training sessions for goalkeepers. Big thanks to Aston for supporting them this evening.'
