Deletion of John Berry (footballer)

Comment: This pretty clearly falls under the section the lede of  which says: '' the meeting of any of these criteria does not mean that an article '''must''' be kept.'' (Emphasis original.) As GiantSnowman has already demonstrated above there is a fairly strong consensus against keeping articles on footballers who only just meet , when that is unlikely to change and they clearly fails

Comment: one appearance a number years ago (to ''technically'' meet |NFOOTY) is not enough when he comprehensively fails |GNG. Some |COMMONSENSE is needed here, and plenty of AFD precedent exists to say that barely passing NFOOTBALL is not enough when you fail GNG. Disagree with the idea of redirecting as there is no mention of him in the club article

Comment: meets  per the source above and http://hugmansfootballers.com/player/1474 this, but there is plenty of consensus that passing NFOOTBALL when you fail GNG is not enough (see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Oscar Otazu|Oscar Otazu, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Vyacheslav Seletskiy|Vyacheslav Seletskiy, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Aleksandr Salimov|Aleksandr Salimov, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Andrei Semenchuk|Andrei Semenchuk, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Artyom Dubovsky|Artyom Dubovsky, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Cosmos Munegabe|Cosmos Munegabe, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Marios Antoniades|Marios Antoniades, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Scott Sinclair (footballer born 1991)|Scott Sinclair, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Fredrik Hesselberg-Meyer (2nd nomination)|Fredrik Hesselberg-Meyer, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Matheus Eccard|Matheus Eccard, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Roland Szabó|Roland Szabó (2nd nomination), Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Metodija Stepanovski|Metodija Stepanovski, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Linas Klimavičius|Linas Klimavičius, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Takumi Ogawa|Takumi Ogawa, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Nicky Fish (2nd nomination)|Nicky Fish,Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Andrei Nițu|Andrei Nițu and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mohammed Al-Jizani|Mohammed Al-Jizani, amongst others). For younger players we usually allow a grace period to get some coverage, but that doesn't apply here as he is long retired. I suggest we redirect to Torquay United F.C., as his sole claim to fame is playing for them - and then redirect to 1983–84 Torquay United F.C. season once that has been created
