Adelaide Red Blue Eagles

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Non-notable amateur football team. The club plays in a purely social competition, the sources provided are either not independent of the subject or are only of minor relevance. This is a disputed PROD, reasons can be found on the article talk page. Mattinbgn\talk 10:59, 21 June 2008 (UTC)

 * is not a notable amateur football team playing in a legitimate competition. I dispute the claim that it is non-notable, pointing to an article in The Murray Valley Standard as proof of the clubs notoriety, which has a circulation of almost 4,000 (ABC audited). In regards to the SAASL being a purely social competition, the SAASL is the level of football (soccer) below the three professional leagues of South Australia which are run by the FFSA. Many players in the league are payed money to play, making it a business exchange. Social soccer is playing in the park with mates. How can this article on a SAASL team be any different to that of the article of SAASL team FC Adelaide — Preceding unsigned comment added by Babny002 (talk • contribs)

 * This team is a "notable team" see http://saasl.com.au/frmShowPage.aspx?strPageName=clubs&intDivisionID=61&intClubID=183. Furthermore it has a first team and a reserve team. With the reserves currently still in a competitive cup, see http://saasl.com.au/frmShowpage.aspx?strpagename=cup_matches. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.104.75.200 (talk) 03:08, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete getting mentioned in a local paper with a circulation of 4,000, and having a reserve team do not assist its non-notable status. Murtoa (talk) 03:21, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
 * The team also employs a coach who previously competed in the National Soccer League, (predecessor to the A-League). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.104.75.200 (talk) 07:08, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
