Jack Lambert (association footballer) → Jack Lambert (footballer) – similarly to many other like --Relisted. George Ho (talk) 03:35, 16 May 2015 (UTC) --Unikalinho (talk) 18:27, 10 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Jack Lambert lists two football topics. "footballer" should redirect to Jack Lambert as it did when this article was originally renamed -- 65.94.43.89 (talk) 04:16, 11 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- We have many similar cases, which doesn't impede to rename the feature articles exactly "... (footballer)", not "... (association footballer)". Why shouldn't it be in this case?--Unikalinho (talk) 08:34, 11 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  - Look carefully at those cases. There are no other football topics when it uses "footballer" -- 65.94.43.89 (talk) 03:26, 12 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in WikiProject Football's list of association football-related page moves. --BDD (talk) 18:56, 12 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Support - unnecessary disambiguation, no person looking for the American football player would stumble across this article 'by accident' as that sport doesn't use "footballer". Giant Snowman 19:35, 12 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Support. American football players are not generally known as footballers. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:45, 20 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Support per the last two comments -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 20:35, 20 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Support - "Footballer" is not a term by which the American football player would be known by as it is not a widely used term within the game. Fenix down (talk) 14:00, 22 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
