The list isn't notable enough to have its own article as it was contested due to possibly being part of Melbourne City FC but this list is seperate due to being a different club. HawkAussie (talk) 07:39, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete The state league team probably doesn't meet the relevant notability guidelines, so we definitely don't need an article on its performance in various seasons. Nick-D (talk) 07:56, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment We cannot keep this article as it stands, but it may be better to move or draftify it somewhere. Footscray JUST have a page, and a good one - this team succeeded them in the top division in the state after they left the NSL, but then bottomed out in the state leagues: [1] It would be a good section in an article on that club, but we'd have to establish a page for that club first.

Delete/draftify - the state team does qualify for an article as they are eligible for the FFA Cup but they would need to have an article created first for this list to have any value here Spiderone 17:20, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per above. Teams at this level, State League Division 4 West, generally won't meet notability guidelines. Certainly a season by season list is not required. Nigej (talk) 20:16, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I've copied the content to my userspace. If Melbourne JUST/Melbourne City FC are notable in a WP:BEFORE search - very possible as a former top flight state club, but will have to look in the archives - this content would work well on that page. SportingFlyer T·C 22:17, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. The Melbourne City club that was formed in 1990 claim to have first played in 1991.[2] They don't claim the history of the JUST club that last played in 1990. It seems that the 1990 club has effectively bought the playing right of the old team. As a club that hasn't played in the first tier of the state leagues, it's unlikely that the club has received significant coverage, let alone consistent significant third-party coverage of their matches.

Delete - Apologies for confusing the two teams in my deprod. ~Kvng (talk) 22:09, 26 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
