Amateur village football club which has never played above the (highly theoretical) 15th level of the English football league system. Normal yardstick of notability at WP:FOOTY for a team is past or present participation in the top 10 levels or in a national cup competition, this team has donew neither. Article creator was actually happy for it to be deleted, but before he had a chance to tag it g7, someone else edited it so that was no longer valid.

- Delete: Not even close to being notable in a footballing sense as they don't compete in the national cup competition (in this case the FA Cup). -- BigDom 08:07, 31 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. I think a prod would have worked. Mr Stephen (talk) 08:10, 31 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- I'm a bit jaded on PRODs, as whenever I put them on an IP just pops up and removes them with no explanation and I wind up having to take the article to AfD anyway....... :-( -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:13, 31 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Been there, done that. :) Mr Stephen (talk) 10:42, 31 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Merge into York League as me and Chris discussed earlier on my talk page, I created this article and I think it's appropriate to have it as a section in the league it's in. Even if Footyn notability policies changed, I think all leagues in the English Football Pyramid would always be notable, and there's enough space for the team in that article unless the team someday becomes notable on its own.

- That's OK with me as long as all teams in the league are afforded equivalent coverage in the article, otherwise you're giving undue weight to this one..... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:07, 3 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- My apologies, transposed "section" with "row on a graph". Serves me right for late night editing. Doc Quintana (talk) 13:08, 3 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
