Shalford Football Club[edit]

Amateur village football team which does not meet GNG or the WP:FOOTY project rule of thumb of having competed in the top 10 levels of the English football league system or in a national cup competition. ChrisTheDude (talk) 14:13, 11 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. This club obviously falls below the commonly accepted level. I also notice that much of this article is a copyvio and there's very little in the way of available third-party sources to make this club in any way notable. Bettia (rawr!) 14:30, 11 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Shame know, My Uncle played for this team during the 60s. :) Govvy (talk) 23:20, 11 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Don't Delete! It's a club with over a hundred years of history and they may not have played in the top 10 tiers but they're in the 11th right now! Sometimes the people on Wikipedia can be such tosspots. (I apologise for my bad language but I'm clearly not that articulate...) Oh, and if you're going to have an article about the league Shalford are in then why not have one about each of the clubs in that league? Seems a bit silly to me. Could be that the league doesn't meet your RoT in which case I understand completely now and you should probably delete that too... Ms331 (talk) 00:13, 12 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Reply I know it can be annoying but Wiki has a criteria of what a notable club should be and by those rules this team shouldn't have an article. Govvy (talk) 22:53, 12 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
