Lao Division 1 League

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable league. While promotion to top division does exist, the league does not appear to provide competitors for the national cup as sources here show that the national cup is usually competed for by the top teams in the top league and top regional teams from outside Vientiane. As such, the league would fail WP:FOOTYN. Additionally, there is little published material on line regarding this division and it is not covered at all on RSSSF bar the occasioanl mention of a which team was promoted at the end of the season and so probably fails WP:GNG too.

 * Redirect to Football in Laos as there is minimal independent notability. GiantSnowman 17:02, 2 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Comment - entire article is a copy and paste of the lead of Lao League. Does this league even exist.......? -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 21:22, 2 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Reply - The guy who created the article does seem to have a bit of a history of C&Ping and the article as it is conatins no useful information on the division. There are occasional and very brief mentions of a second tier on the relevant RSSSF pages, but these are restricted almost exclusively to which team/s were promoted. The division definitely did exist, but it is difficult to tell if it does now. There is no mention of it that I can find on the official Laos FA website and there is no mention on the most recent couple of seasons pages on RSSSF. A redirect seems plausible, although any information in the Football in Laos article would be sketchy at best. Fenix down (talk) 12:02, 3 January 2013 (UTC)

 * Redirect - non-notable second-tier league. Redirecting to Football in Laos seems appropiate. Mentoz86 (talk) 20:04, 5 January 2013 (UTC)
