The result was keep. Aside from a suggestion to userfy, there's no consensus to delete. (non-admin closure) Ron Ritzman (talk) 00:22, 25 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Team has been accepted into the Northern Counties East Football League ([1]) for the 2010-11 season, a level for which most other teams have an article. Does require expansion--Pretty Green (talk) 09:01, 18 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Userfy - They've been admitted into the Northern Counties East Football League and teams there are deemed notable for inclusion (due to the clubs entering both the FA Cup and FA Vase). However, they haven't played a game in that division yet but will be in August, hence why I go for userfy rather than keep or delete.

Keep as per Pretty Green. While userfy is a good idea, it just seems like a load of hassle for the sake of six weeks or whatever it is. Giant Snowman 18:44, 18 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - article will need moving to Farsley A.F.C., as per WP:FOOTY naming conventions. Giant Snowman 18:45, 18 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Looks like another over-officious AfD Eliteimp (talk) 16:53, 19 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

That's a little harsh a comment. It's worth while the editor listing if he or she is uncertain as to its notability! --Pretty Green (talk) 19:20, 20 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: Clubs at this level get articles. That the team hasn't yet played a match is irrelevant; that there are several reliable sources attesting to its existence is. Ravenswing 16:56, 24 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep The club starts playing in three weeks time and their first league match is six weeks off. All other teams in the league have a page. The page is linked from their predecessor club (Farsley Celtic), providing the information that a replacement club is in existence.User:Chris Dunford-Kelk (talk) 23:55, 24 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
