County cup season article - not notable Kivo (talk) 22:18, 25 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Absolute Keep Not a county cup. Provincial cup featuring entrants from levels 1–3. A leading cup competiton in Republic of Ireland. Djln Djln Djln (talk) 14:44, 31 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Leinster Senior Cup (association football). Don't think this is notable enough for a standalone article. Number   5  7  14:47, 31 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep. Provincial nature of cup doesn't make it any less notable, and in fact it is only structured in this way due to the historical governance of Irish football whereby the Leinster Football Association who run the competition were actually founded before the Football Association of Ireland. Thus, the cup has been in existence before even the national League of Ireland and is the oldest football cup competition in the country. Specifically in relation to the modern day season articles, all the top League of Ireland sides from Leinster compete in the cup and deem it worthy enough of playing their strongest teams, therefore individual season articles are useful in giving more background info. --IrishTennis (talk) 15:20, 31 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep First level teams compete in this cup, and it is one of the oldest surviving soccer competitions in Ireland, and one of the three top cup competitions in Ireland today. --SuperJew (talk) 21:06, 31 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep - seems to be a notable enough competition to merit individual season articles -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:25, 1 November 2016 (UTC)
