New York City FC[edit]

There is no team yet. An expansion franchise hasn't been awarded, and the sources in the article indicate it will be several weeks before an announcement. Until then, this is all crystal ball, all the time. p b p 18:28, 2 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I originally PROD'd the article but the template was removed without explanation. I'd say delete, then merge into Expansion of Major League Soccer#New York City, but then, the content's redundant, so why bother? Mosmof (talk) 02:35, 3 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - some football execs thinking out loud in the media. A vague proposal for a possible team - not notable. Giant Snowman 17:38, 3 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Not Delete Let's wait end of this month. Official annnoucemnet will be issued at Manchester city vs Chelsea friendly match at 26th May. If the official annnoucemnet not issued, Delete this article.Footwiks (talk) 02:40, 4 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- You have it backwards - why rush to have an article about a team that doesn't exist. We can always create an article if and when the team is announced. Mosmof (talk) 03:40, 4 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - theoretical team that doesn't exist or even have a confirmed name -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 19:47, 4 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. The team doesn't even exist so how can it have been founded this year? The word conntected is a new one to me. Argyle 4 Life^talk 17:45, 5 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
