Non notable club. Plays amateur level in Azerbaijan. Can find evidence on rsssf that they have ever been involved in either national league or cup. Fenix down (talk) 15:15, 26 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Notable club. The club was founded in 1927. In 1977 they also won Azerbaijan USSR League. Please see: Rsssf.Com: Azerbaijan - List of Champions --►Safir yüzüklü Cekli^mesaj 07:09, 27 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - national champions = notable. Article needs improving, not deleting. Giant Snowman 08:48, 27 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - Could someone please provide source that this club were champions. The rsssf ref has a different name. I am well aware many soviet teams regularly changed their name but at the moment there is no reliable source connecting the two club names. More than happy to withdraw the AfD if this can be shown.

This "case" seems to be related to Karabakh conflict -- there is also Armenian (Nagorno-Karabakh Republic's) team (Russian iwiki contains more info on this) claiming itself to be successor of Soviet FC Dynamo / Karabakh from Stepanakert (Khankendi) --Postoronniy-13 (talk) 16:57, 27 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
