The result was keep. Based on apparent cricket findings. MBisanztalk 18:04, 25 September 2021 (UTC)reply
non-notable as a businessperson, and, I think, as a cricketeer. Head of a small investment company--the usual level at which these have substantial 3rd party reliable published sources, not press releases or blogs or postings or mere notices is about $1 billion assets under management--but his firm have GBP 70 million.
The references are entirely notices about property purchases and financing.or profiles based on self-reported information. DGG (

Keep. Lots of coverage of him spending weeks in hospital because of COVID-19, in part because he has a famous daughter-in-law. Foussianes, Chloe (2020-05-20).
"Princess Eugenie's Father-in-Law, George Brooksbank, Recovers from COVID-19". Town & Country. Retrieved 2021-08-31. Town & Country is a reliable source, I think, even though it refers to him as an accountant rather than a real estate investor. The year of birth in the article may be wrong;
this article says he was 68 in 2018, which would mean a birth year of approximately 1950, not 1981.Eastmain (

Delete, as per nomination. Sadly, spending weeks in hospital with COVID-19 is not that uncommon and therefore has little weight regarding notability.

Neutral. I was confused by the second person with the same name. Perhaps move to the person's company, which seems to have attracted some coverage. Eastmain (

Keep as he has played cricket for county club Hertfordshire and played for prestigious club
Marylebone Cricket Club (and went to Argentina tour for the club).

Keep - tricky, but seems to pass
