Old Boys Clapham FC

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

General rule of thumb at WP:FOOTY is that a club needs to have played in the top 10 levels of the English football league system or in a national cup competition to be notable, this club has not done either of these. No sources found to pass WP:GNG either. Note also WP:COI as article was created by club chairman -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 20:39, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom, non-notable team. GiantSnowman 21:23, 25 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Strong delete - how can this be notable with only 4 Google hits? T3h   1337   b0y  23:18, 25 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete - per nom. This club clearly fails WP:FOOTYN and other relevant notability guidelines. Sir Sputnik (talk) 17:01, 26 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment - article creator put this on the talk page, which I guess can be interpreted as his !voting to keep: This page is linked to the Surrey South Eastern Comination page. I noticed that other teams in our League have a page such as Crescent Rovers and Mole Valley SCR. I think the more local people know about football in Surrey is a good thing as most players come to us through the internet. The purpose of the page is only to give information. -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 20:17, 26 June 2010 (UTC)
