Delete - very low-level amateur team. The general consensus for base club notability is that they must have played in a national league / cup competition, which I do not believe this club has. Fenix down (talk) 15:00, 26 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
~~Keep~~ - Meet's WP:GNG with lots of coverage over the years. [1], [2], [3] Nfitz (talk) 23:09, 26 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - You mean lots of coverage in the same local newspaper, that essentially covers Bristol and the surrounding area? Can you explain please how that satisfies the notion of "significant coverage", particularly when the second of your sources is simply a routine match report the type of which appears in the local press all over the country and the third article is not even about the football club but a cricket club of the same name. You might also wish to discuss how aligned your comments are to WP:CLUB. Fenix down (talk) 13:50, 27 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - third link was clearly the wrong one, oops, and fixed now! routine applies to events, not organisations. I wouldn't claim that the matches mentioned are notable ... however the team draws frequent, substantive, in-depth coverage. You are correct however that it doesn't meet WP:CLUB as while it does received significant coverage in many articles, that they are in the same publication, so I will withdraw my Keep.

Delete - has always played below the cutoff point for notability, and doesn't seem to have been the subject of coverage other than standard local newspaper reporting of the level that even kids' teams get (at least in my area.....) -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 15:45, 27 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
