Middlesbrough Futsal Club

Club playing in a minor league that hasn't received much press attention bar a local newspaper reporting a charity match. Notability tag since september 2008, but has not yet been established. Quantpole (talk) 21:44, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep. It appears to play in the national league so is at the highest level for this sport. It does need work however. -- Bduke   (Discussion)  22:25, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Is that a guideline I haven't come across? Quantpole (talk) 22:56, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep applying WP:FOOTYN seems appropriate. The FA Futsal League operates regionally but does appear to be a national league using a playoff type system to find a national champion. The club seems to have been involved in this so it's probably a keep, although rather reluctantly. Blue Square Thing (talk) 07:34, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

 * Keep - even though it is a minor sport in England it seems appropriate to apply similar principles to other sports teams and it seems to pass WP:FOOTYN which is the nearest guideline available. Keith D (talk) 20:31, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
