Honours for 2015
Should Andreas Vaikla receive honours for Allsvenskan and Supercupen from 2015, even though he only appeared on the bench for both competetions? // Psemmler (talk) 15:01, 18 March 2016 (UTC)
 * That is a tough one. I would like to say yes, but I know that in many leagues you have had to play a certain amount of matches to recieve a medal. This has led to honours being removed from other footballers. Qed237&#160;(talk) 15:23, 18 March 2016 (UTC)
 * So does it depends on if he were given a medal or not ? I'm pretty sure he received one for Supercupen, since he was a sub, but I'm not sure of Allsvenskan. // Psemmler (talk) 16:25, 18 March 2016 (UTC)
 * That is my experience. If we have a source saying that he recieved a medal, we can add it as an honour. <i style="font-family:Sans-serif"><b style="color:blue">Qed</b><b style="color:red">237</b>&#160;<b style="color:green">(talk)</b></i> 16:28, 18 March 2016 (UTC)
 * In my opinion, the medal rule is a bit messy since it's different requirements depending on competetion and country, as far as I'm aware of. I think that if a player have represented the team at any game for the competetion, it should be recieved as an honour. By this, it doesn't include Vaikla, however I know there's a lot of second goalkeepers not having played any games but still mentioned as part of the team. Maybe this is a subject for WP:Football ? // Psemmler (talk) 16:32, 18 March 2016 (UTC)
 * It has been discussed, but feel free to open a new discussion. In my mind he has been a part of the squad and even if he had not played any matches he has been a part of the team, pushed them in practise and so on. You can read one of the discussions I have been involved in at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Football/Archive 95. In that discussions people thought Danny Welbeck should not get FA Cup as honour because he did not play in the final (he played earlier in tournament). <i style="font-family:Sans-serif"><b style="color:blue">Qed</b><b style="color:red">237</b>&#160;<b style="color:green">(talk)</b></i> 16:50, 18 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Also please see this where a hidden note even had been added, whcih was a big discussion. I wanted it added but consensus was no. <i style="font-family:Sans-serif"><b style="color:blue">Qed</b><b style="color:red">237</b>&#160;<b style="color:green">(talk)</b></i> 16:55, 18 March 2016 (UTC)
