- Delete. (I discussed (or saw) this with nom on separate page). Awful name to WP:BEFORE (lots of other individuals with the same name). However - it is clear that none of the teams the subject played for as a player pass WP:NFOOTY (None were FPL). Following his playing days, per the article itself, the subject served as an assistant to Anthony Hudson (football manager). Assistant coaches are not generally notable. Sources in the article do not satisfy GNG. In my BEFORE, I was unable to find sources established GNG for this Patrick Sweeney (difficult as Patrick Sweeney (rowing) (rowing coach) masks out coaching stuff, and other Sweeneys abound - including another assistant soccer coach ( [1]) with the same name).

- Delete there's a chance he's notable on WP:GNG grounds since he did win the League of Ireland cup and Ireland is a league which fails WP:NFOOTY but is nevertheless well covered, but none of those potential sources are present here, and they may not exist. More importantly, this reads like a CV ad WP:NOTINHERITED is in play. SportingFlyer T· C 14:53, 21 July 2019 (UTC)
- Delete The whole article feels very much promotional, I would go so far and say this should be delete per WP:G11. Govvy ( talk) 13:50, 22 July 2019 (UTC)
