Unencyclopaedic, POV-laden nonsense. The references given are to opinion pieces, or are referring to the opinions of fans who are obviously biased one way or another depending on the circumstances. Jmorrison230582 (talk) 15:00, 21 September 2008 (UTC)

• This discussion has been included in WikiProject Football's list of association football related deletions. GiantSnowman 15:47, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
• Keep I think it's okay to have an article about a common expression used in the sport. Northwestgnome (talk) 17:54, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
• Weak keep It could do with some cleaning up I think, but it seems a commonly used term in English football. I also deleted the scurrilous comment added by an IP about Scottish football. MadScot (talk) 18:03, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
• Weak delete I'm leaning towards a delete with a redirect to Pejorative use of Mickey's name. I don't think there is enough new information here to warrant a seperate entry, such as there is for Mickey Mouse degrees. The only references I can find on google (and also the only relevant reference in the article itself) comes from football related blog entries (i.e. opinion pieces) so to me doesn't meet the requirements for significant coverage in unbiased third party sources--Stabbington (talk) 19:14, 21 September 2008 (UTC)

here's a BBC News item from 1999, where David Mellor is quoted as using the term.(Last para)MadScot (talk) 19:55, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
