Keep From what I see the club does pass WP:FOOTYN having playing the the cups, they won the Second Div in 2009 [1], which means they played in the top tier in 2010. And lets have a look at our season page on wikipedia. 2009–10 Maltese Premier League, o look, there they are, playing a whole season and getting relegated. I am sure there are more sources to be found, to show their promotions, relegations. Goal.com [2] noted the club being one of the worse in the world! @Onel5969: I thought you would of done a much better WP:BEFORE, @GiantSnowman: There is always some degree of notability, you just got to go look for it.
