This page should not be speedily deleted because...This player may not have played in a professional league, but I feel the article makes the WP:GNG guideline, and I feel all sources are reliable, also this article will be able to grow in the coming year. I feel there was enough about Pearson to be notable despite not playing in a fully professional league. He has won awards, played in finals, played at International level, been involved in a transfer saga and is a professional footballer despite playing in the Conference National. I am still in the process of making even more additions to this page, which will make it bigger and better. Before you consider deleting this please see the talkpage discussions where similar articles like Andy Cook as an example were kept for the same reason despite him not playing in a fully professional league, also previous cases with Richard Brodie occured before he had played in the Football League. I am all for abiding by guidelines but I wouldn't have created this article if I wasn't confident it wouldn't be notable and useful to Wikipedia on the whole.
