The result was delete. There is some small amount of coverage, but there's nothing to indicate that it is anything more than local at best bar the odd other mention Fenix down (talk) 22:20, 20 October 2020 (UTC)

Bristol and Avon Association Football League
AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log )

Defunct very low-level amateur English football league (article says it was the 20th level of the English football league system, which is debatable as the system is not officially defined that far down but nonetheless it was certainly very very low). This would have been a league contested primarily on public park pitches and the only coverage it would have received would have been cursory mentions on the inside pages of the local paper alongside the senior citizens' crown green bowls league. Article was nominated once before and kept, but the reasons offered seem very weak to me...... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 20:11, 13 October 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete - after you remove the primary sources, all that seems to exist are these   none of which amounts to WP:SIGCOV. Delete per nom  Spiderone  20:46, 13 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom, non-notable lowly league. GiantSnowman 11:20, 14 October 2020 (UTC)

 * Comment why do you User:Spiderone ignore the Bristol Evening Post reference that was discussed during the last AFD? That seems in-depth, in a significant publication. And why also other media coverage of teams from this league over the decades, from a quick before check - even international mentions like the The Progress-Index here. I haven't had a chance to look deeply; User:Number_57, you were involved in the previous AFD. What are your thoughts now that this league seems to be defunct.

 * That was the third source listed in my comment. It's fairly in-depth and, if there were a couple more sources of that sort of calibre around, I'd happily change to a keep vote. Spiderone  11:26, 20 October 2020 (UTC)
 * I don't think this article is really in-depth. It basically says that a local amateur sports league held its AGM and agreed its line-up for the next season - IMO it's a bit charitable to describe that as in-depth.  My local paper gives similar coverage to the AGMs of the local Women's Institute and similar groups....... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 12:01, 20 October 2020 (UTC)
