PROD contested on the grounds it meets WP:FOOTY criteria, however per WP:BURDEN there is a burden on the creator to establish how articles meet criteria. This article is basically unreferenced, other than the fact it exists, which is not enough to warrant an article on Wikipedia. Cloudz 679 12:43, 13 April 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete - PRODs contested because the clubs are "eligible to participate in national cup competition", which is indeed a standard over at WP:FOOTBALL - but alas those claims are completely unreferenced. WP:RS to WP:V please! GiantSnowman 12:53, 13 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep - sources have now been found showing a valid claim to nptability. GiantSnowman 08:40, 14 April 2012 (UTC)
