Ashton F.C.

 * – ( View AfD View log )

A lot of the claims in the article are exaggerated so I tagged this as WP:G3 under hoax grounds, which the creator has vehemently denied is the case. If this club does indeed exist and meets WP:GNG, then we can stubify the article and remove all of the unsourced nonsense. A WP:BEFORE search is extremely challenging as all I can find is info relating to Ashton United F.C. and Curzon Ashton F.C..

I am still of the belief that this article needs to go but am taking to AfD to hopefully establish clear consensus from fellow editors on this one. Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 12:09, 17 October 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete: Delete per nominator, I have CSD'd some of these creations earlier, looks like they are hoaxes (some articles just had one word like Hi) - at the very least they are disruptive JW 1961 Talk 13:23, 17 October 2021 (UTC)
