List of football club nicknames in the United Kingdom

 * – ( View AfD View log )

As per strong consensus here and here. Also as per WP:IINFO and failure of WP:LISTN. The list has no navigational purpose. Also see discussion here, where it was suggested that it would be WP:BIAS to keep this article when all other similar ones are up for deletion. Spiderone 11:41, 6 December 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete - per recent consensus, not notable. GiantSnowman 16:36, 6 December 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete - agree with nominator and views above re. notability and consensus. There are also numerous issues around the practicality of having an article like this in terms of what you include (eg if fans of other teams regularly refer to a team by a derogatory name, should that be included? What about short lived nicknames). Also the origins and usage of club's nicknames is often obscure and debatable. Nicknames can be discussed in a club's article, but having a list is just trivia.
