Fails GNG - does not compete at top tier professional level per WP:ATHLETE and fails WP:CLUB. ukexpat (talk) 18:57, 26 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - A general rule of thumb for English clubs is playing at the 10th level (at worst). This club plays below that level. (Also, Wp:ATHLETE doesn't apply to teams.) DitzyNizzy (aka Jess)|(talk to me)|(What I've done) 22:47, 26 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: I know that strictly speaking WP:ATHLETE doesn't apply to teams but I couldn't find a general rule for English clubs. – ukexpat (talk) 01:16, 27 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
