Contested PROD. Concern was have not played a match in a fully professional league, or a cup-match between two fully professional teams, thus failing WP:NFOOTY. PROD was contested by the article's creator without providing a reason. Mr. Cunningham has played three matches in the Norwegian Cup. However, all three of these were against lower division teams, meaning they do not confer notability. Sir Sputnik (talk) 17:11, 6 March 2012 (UTC) .[reply]

He already played at youth levels in US national teams and is one of most promissing players in Molde squad. He have been loaned and will problably play in a few days in Tippeligaen. User:SirEdimon (talk) 00:28, 7 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

WP:NSPORT explicitly excludes youth internationals and claiming he will make his debut is speculation which is never grounds for notability. Sir Sputnik (talk) 04:44, 7 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - fails WP:NFOOTY and WP:GNG. Though it should be noted that Cunningham have been loaned out to Stabæk, and will probably meet the notability criteria after the Norwegian season start in 3 weeks. But until then, this is not notable. Mentoz86 (talk) 17:25, 6 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete — Agree with the nominator. This article doesn't pass WP:NFOOTY particularly criteria #1 and #2. Minima © (talk) 17:30, 6 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - fails WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTBALL. Easy enough to restore if/when he is notable in the future. Giant Snowman 11:57, 7 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
