Case of WP:TOOSOON. Club is brand new after a merger between two clubs and doesn't meet the old WP:FOOTYN guidelines for clubs yet, doesn't meet WP:NSPORTS or WP:GNG. NZFC(talk)(cont) 17:15, 24 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - likely to be notable in the future, but WP:CRYSTAL applies, and there's no evidence of notability currently. GiantSnowman 20:00, 24 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Smerge into Glenfield Rovers, the more prominent of the the source teams. Given the history of the clubs involved, it may become notable later, but it's currently too soon to know that. Grutness...wha? 00:22, 25 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I would of just moved the article into draft space! Considering the age of the club, more sources would come out locally to that location there, seems rash running this to AfD without giving the creator a chance. Govvy (talk) 10:50, 25 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • Yup, drafting would work for me too. Grutness...wha? 21:42, 25 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - meets neither WP:GNG or WP:FOOTYN. Onel5969 TT me 00:15, 26 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I'm happy if original user or someone else wants the article changed to draft but otherwise it's just a case that of too early. The club will be notable in the future I'm sure, just not now! NZFC(talk)(cont) 02:04, 26 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
