• Comment When you put an article up for deletion you put up a valid reason why you are nominating it for deletion. Just saying amateur club is not suitable because some amateur clubs can be notable. Mr. C.C.^{Hey yo!}_{I didn't do it!} 15:26, 10 April 2010 (UTC)
• Keep Poor reason for deletion. If we went according to the nominators explanation, then we should delete Queen's Park F.C. as well. The C of E. God Save The Queen! (talk) 16:10, 10 April 2010 (UTC)

Speedy keep and close per the C of E. I will quickly close this due to a lack of substance when it comes to a suitable reason for his or her nomination. I also left a message on the nominators talk page about giving a better rationale as to why they are nominating this article. Mr. C.C.^{Hey yo!}_{I didn't do it!} 16:28, 10 April 2010 (UTC)

• :Fishead2100 (mr CC above) has taken it upon himself to unilaterally close this AfD within 24 hours. That's entirely un-supported by procedure, so I've reopened it, as appropriate. CynofGavuf 06:35, 11 April 2010 (UTC)

::Since it was such a problem for Fishhead to explain himself, as opposed to just removing the AfD, I'll explain the nomination. It's an amateur team, which doesn't meet the notability criteria for sports teams, it also is written in a promotional tone, using phrases like "We are always keen to welcome newcomers" and "We run 4 adult sides."

::There are no references, or other traditional reasons to keep. That Fishead would disagree at all is questionable, but that he would non admin close this so quickly is so obviously wrong, no more comment's required. CynofGavuf 06:41, 11 April 2010 (UTC)

::Just to let you know, all that promotion rubbish was vandalism, which i've fixed. I know it's vandalism as it puts them in a higher league before the season has even finished. The C of E. God Save The Queen! (talk) 07:08, 11 April 2010 (UTC)
