 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep Founded in 1899 and is one of the oldest football clubs in India and the oldest one in Kerala as per this.Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 16:10, 2 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Comment I think it would be unfair to delete this article on a whim that in fact the age of the club would mean there must be more off-line sources than online. The sources in the article are weak, but that doesn't suggest that the club is not notable. Govvy (talk) 11:24, 6 October 2020 (UTC)

 * Deleting might be unfair: It is the oldest club in Kerala. That makes it notable, even though lack sources online.  I have read a lot about this club on newspapers. There was a seperate article about the club on its 100th anniversary. In one of my exams,  I even recieved a MCQ question about this club. Sources might not be available online but dont know how to fix that problem. Atleast move to draftspace so that interested users can work on it Indianfootball98 (talk) 03:41, 16 October 2020 (UTC)
