Talk:Scott Sutter

Tottenham

The fact that Scott is to play against his boyhood heroes and whether it should be included in this article is a matter of debate. One can argue that it is not particularly notable and is, in fact, trivial. Well, I bet it is not trivial to the player himself. It is not trivial to Spurs fans, and it is definitely not trivial to the media, otherwise they would not have reported on it. It's games like this which keeps the spirit of football alive - as some would say 'it's what football is all about'. For these reasons, I argue that this fact is far from trivial, indeed the fact that players play against their boyhood club 'all the time' does not make it any less so, and suggesting that we don't mention all of these, so we shouldn't on this occasion, is ludicrous, and defies all logic 78.150.5.128 (talk) 18:34, 16 August 2010 (UTC)

It may not be trivial to the player himself, but as Wikipedia has to adhere to a neutral point of view, it must be considered as to whether such an occurrence is more generally trivial. Since most professional footballers do not play for a team they grew up supporting it is not uncommmon to find themselves playing against a club they have followed. To include such detail in an encyclopaedia smacks of fancruft, and does not belong, no matter how well sourced. Besides, it is not even certain that Sutter will play in either of the games vs. Spurs.

It's not quite Dennis Law territory. I'm inclined to allow it for now. It's well sourced, and given that this is not a BLP concern I feel that the page will benefit from not being semi-protected (it would probably need to be semi-protected if we're going to insist on removing it immediately). Longer term I feel it should go, as it adds little encyclopaedic value, but for now I think stability is the order of the day. --WFC-- 01:51, 17 August 2010 (UTC)

We can reassess this as soon as the two games (August 17 and 25) are over. --Leyo 09:39, 17 August 2010 (UTC)

I think it should be fine, he played in both games, got a good reception from the fans when he came off as sub. I do love the fact he went to the same school I did :) Govvy (talk) 22:18, 25 August 2010 (UTC)

I still think that it's not a notable incident. Ilikeeatingwaffles (talk) 22:51, 25 August 2010 (UTC)

You say that, but what school he went to is part of his background, helped shape him to what he has become, the sports teachers at the school could be a key factor to where he is today, so I think it's a good bit of information and as it has citation from a fairly solid source it merits inclusion.

Slight confusion here; I have no problem about noting which school he attended, it's the stuff about playing against Spurs that I thought was a bit crufty. Ilikeeatingwaffles (talk) 20:12, 5 September 2010 (UTC)
