Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Wayne Shaw (footballer)
GNG takes more than a couple of tabloidy pieces. There are always "human interest" stories in the media when a small club play a big club in the FA Cup, whether tragic, heartwarming or, as in Mr Shaw's case, comic. Mr Shaw is the goalkeeping coach to Sutton United, a fifth-tier team drawn to play Arsenal in an unexpectedly late stage of the competition, who happens to be very fat. The sources currently present in the article are from the local paper from the Sutton area, the non-RS ''Daily Mail'' website, and the ''Evening Standard'', a free-sheet that's given away in London to read on the train.The pieces mentioned by {{u|Mattlore}} are two versions of the same story: that Mr Shaw apparently took advantage of a betting promotion connected with a major tabloid newspaper to make himself a few quid by eating a pie during the match, embarrassed his team by so doing, and might get into trouble with the football authorities.A few articles in the lightweight end of the last few days' media hung on a fat bloke's non-playing involvement with a non-league team reaching the last 16 of the FA Cup doesn't convey individual notability. (E)#People notable for only one event says that "People known only in connection with one event should generally not have an article written about them. If the event is notable, then an article usually should be written about the event instead." If the event were notable, a redirect would be appropriate, but I suspect it isn't; had Sutton beaten Arsenal, it might have been. cheers
