AMCO Sports Personality Of The Year
Contested prod. Completely non-notable event made up by some friends. Zero G hits other than Wikipedia. Fang Aili talk 18:05, 2 November 2006 (UTC) Only Retfordians have won the title despite numerous challenges from else where
 * Delete Ghits for "Sports Personality Of The Year" largely go to the BBC award of the same name. Tourism site in "External links" section makes no mention of the tourney. NN & fails WP:V. Caknuck 18:53, 2 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete - Wikipedia is not for things made up in school. The page is only notable to the individuals participating in the "events".  Rather than using up Wikipedia's webspace, the participants should investigate free web hosting alternatives. - b o b b y  20:36, 2 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong Sporty Delete - Living in Retford (where the article suggests the event take place), I have never heard or seen the event advertised or take place. A Retford Times website search comes up with nothing. The events stated in the article have never happened. This is pure violation of WP:HOAX and WP:NOT. As a side note, AMCO is a bathroom retailer in the town. And one last thing:
 * I haven't won the title - that alone makes it worthy for AfD! --tgheretford (talk) 21:45, 2 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment: I have sent an email to AMCO to see whether they have any affiliation with the event. --tgheretford (talk) 23:32, 8 November 2006 (UTC)


 * Sad delete - I agree with all of the above, but alas, the tournament sounds like fun & keeping it would only allow a vanished dream to but echoe in my exsistance.... *Cry*... Spawn Man 04:21, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
