Admittedly I'm not terribly familiar with the Scottish Premier League, but as far as I can tell this individual football match fails WP:Sports event as it did not decide a championship, was not an "all-star" type exhibition, and has little to no coverage beyond routine coverage. —KuyaBriBriTalk 23:15, 2 December 2010 (UTC)
- Keep This match was a Scottish Premier League record, contributed heavily to the sacking of Mark McGhee, was a record defeat for Aberdeen and was were 'Poppygate' occured. I definitely think that those reasons make it a significant match. Adam4267 (talk) 23:28, 2 December 2010 (UTC)

- Delete. per nomination. And not just because I support Aberdeen. Swaddon1903 (talk) 09:31, 3 December 2010 (UTC)
- Delete the game itself is non-notable on its own. The only notable fact is that is is a home record win in the Scottish top flight, but it is not enough to establish notability for a separate article; a mention in the Scottish Premier League article as a record win is the best, and only, solution. --Angelo (talk) 10:59, 3 December 2010 (UTC)

- Delete - All the things mentioned by Adam4267 are important, but this article is not the answer. We alreay cover all the information in appropriate articles: 1) Scottish league record: already mentioned at 2010–11_Scottish_Premier_League#Events, plenty of space for expansion if there are sufficient sources. 2) The games impact on the sacking of Mark McGhee: already mentioned Aberdeen_F.C.#Recent years (1987–present), plenty of space for more information. 3) "Poppygate", already covered fairly extensively in Green Brigade#"Poppygate" but again if there is more information available it can be added.
