Polar Bear Trophy (football)

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

A piece of memorabilia granted by one football team to another in order to commemorate the occurrence of a match which itself isn't notable enough for an article. As well as, I argue, falling short of the barrier for notability, the single fan site from which this article is sourced is probably not enough to count as verifiable.

 * Merge with History of Celtic F.C.. With the exception of an short piece in The Guardian, there's a distinct lack of decent sources for this subject, just fan sites. This trophy doesn't seem notable enough for it's own article, so I think a merge into the most relevant article would be the best option for this and the Real Madrid trophy (perhaps it would've been better to bundle the two AfDs together?).

 * I did consider that, but the advice said "unless you're sure that the two should be bundled, then don't". I wasn't sure if the Real Madrid trophy may be considered of a different level of notabilty due to the higher profile of the teams; I though linking the two was the safest way forward.
