• Keep - I would say this passes WP:NSEASONS (Articles can be created on individual seasons of teams in top professional leagues, as these articles almost always meet the notability requirements.). This team plays in the top league in Republic of Ireland, and although the league is not considered fully proffessional it is still a top division club which I think is enough. Looking through WP:FOOTY I could not see this consensus? Qed237 (talk) 15:42, 8 January 2016 (UTC)

• Keep - meets WP:NSEASONS as this is a team in the top professional league in Ireland. Note that WP:NATHLETE explicity defines players having to be in fully professional leagues, but does not have the same requirement for team season articles. Also note that statement that the WP:FOOTY consensus is that there should not be a season article isn't backed up by the discussions in WT:FOOTY where it's been acknowledged previously that the top professional league doesn't have to be fully professional.
