2008-09 in English football, 2009-10 in English football[edit]

Delete. Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. There is no meaningful information in either of these articles at the moment, nor will there be until at least late 2007 when the World Cup 2010 European qualifying groups will be drawn. Erath 08:47, 31 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete both per nom. Unlike something like the Olympics, there just isn't enough to say about these two upcoming seasons to justify articles. 23skidoo 13:28, 31 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, Although there is not much information shown on these pages at present, more information is likely to be added in the near future (certainly before the end of 2007). Besides these pages do not contain any offensive or overly speculative statements and are therefore not causing any harm. Dan1980 20:15, 31 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per Dan1980. Mark272 23:00, 31 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Keep There is no need to wipe this useful work. Choalbaton 12:40, 1 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep The seasons will happen anyway and will need to be recreated. Also, as others have said, there is little speculation in either entry and keeping them will do no harm. The potential for expansion is there as more becomes clear about these seasons so there is no real need for deletion. Keresaspa 17:26, 1 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Useful information if sparse; why delete it if we're just going to put it back up there later? Minfo 04:31, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep The proposal is to delete 2008-09 in English football as well as 2009-10 in English football (although this AfD is entitled for the former only). The article contains some useful information which will inevitably grow as time passes and is not too far in the future to become stagnant in the meantime. I can appreciate the reason for this nomination but I think that we would be deleting something that would need to be created again all too soon. -- Alias Flood 22:03, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
