The AFD discussion of the 2015 article was discussing a quite different article. It was only 2 sentences long, for starters. Uncle G (talk) 17:32, 8 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep passes GNG: [1] [2] [3] (and a BBC article which looked good in the search but not when I clicked it) which is significantly more important about any value judgements about the significance of clubs. SportingFlyer T·C 19:00, 8 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per SF - needs improving, not deleting. Giant Snowman 19:01, 8 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per SF and GS. Two significant clubs in an area where league football is few and far between. An interesting and valid topic that needs to be developed. NGS ^{Shakin' All Over} 09:24, 9 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - Comments This is a known derby in football, I don't get the nomination, two insignificant football teams?? Northampton Town and Peterborough United are league clubs with a large fan base. That statement there is terrible for the nomination. It's clear by one user box on TheLongTone page stating "This user couldn't care less about football." That he should avoid football related articles then, if you don't care, why are you nominating this article. This really is a bad-faith nomination from that perspective, I condone this behaviour. I don't know why it was deleted in 2016, that shouldn't of happened then. The article certainly needs improving and not deleting. Govvy (talk) 12:27, 9 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, per SF's comment and GNG. Hey man im josh (talk) 17:34, 11 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
