PROD contensted with the rationale "Willie Aitchison is a professional coach and formerly manager". That may be so, but he hasn't played or managed in a fully professional league and therefore fails WP:NFOOTY. What coverage there is of his 17-game managerial career is of the routine variety.

  • Redirect to East Fife F.C.: I have added various references but they don't add up to much other than acknowledging the subject's brief managerial tenure at New Bayview. Some of the article content could perhaps go into an expanded East_Fife_F.C.#21st_century but at risk of undue emphasis. A Redirect has the merit that if the subject obtains appointments elsewhere in future, the article source can be retrieved and renovated but at the moment there is not enough evidence of biographical notability.

  • Delete - Fails NFOOTY as has not played or managed senior international football nor played or managed in a fully professional league. No indication that subject has garnered significant reliable coverage for any other achievements to satisfy GNG. A redirect to East Fife would be inappropriate, no indication that his contribution there overshadows the remainder of his career. Fenix down ( talk) 09:35, 8 May 2017 (UTC) reply
