2014–15 F.C. United of Manchester season

 * – ( View AfD View log )

No reason why we would have individual articles for the seasons of a semi-professional sports team (competing at the 7th level and lower of the national soccer pyramid). In general, for English football, the first two levels get season articles, and some of level 3 and 4 as well (plus teams that get e.g. an exceptional run at the FA Cup or something similar). No reason to make an exception for this club. Fram (talk) 08:36, 5 August 2014 (UTC)

 * Delete -- While the club may have an unusual foundation, it is far too far donw the football pyramid to warrnat WP coverage at this level. Peterkingiron (talk) 17:05, 5 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete all - per WP:NSEASONS, the club is nowhere near being in a "top professional league" and there is nothing in the articles to indicate that any season received a significant amount of non-routine coverage sufficient to satisfy WP:GNG. Additional concerns around WP:NOTSTATS as I can see very very little in the way of sourced prose in any of these articles. WP is not a stats directory. Fenix down (talk) 07:31, 7 August 2014 (UTC)

 * Delete - This football club is being massively overhyped because of their connection with Manchester United. No need to have individual articles, unless they progress to professional leagues.--Threeohsix (talk) 12:10, 7 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete all - fail WP:NSEASONS. GiantSnowman 09:19, 10 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete – consensus appears to have changed about season articles for clubs under the top 4 levels. For consistency I suggest that we add these articles about a club formed under similar circumstances that started from the bottom too, or start a new discussion:
 * 2002–03 AFC Wimbledon season (level 9)
 * 2003–04 AFC Wimbledon season (level 9)
 * 2004–05 AFC Wimbledon season (level 8)
 * 2005–06 AFC Wimbledon season (level 7)
 * 2006–07 AFC Wimbledon season (level 7)
 * 2007–08 AFC Wimbledon season (level 7)
 * 2008–09 AFC Wimbledon season (level 6)
 * Delete all as they clearly fail WP:NSEASONS. I also support the deletion of the Wimbledon seasons mentioned by Deulsion23. Number   5  7  15:20, 13 August 2014 (UTC)
