Ridgeway Rovers F.C.

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Article was originally PROD'ed by me with the rationale ''Children's football clubs are not generally notable and there is no indication that this one is any different. A few future professional players passed through its ranks but there is nothing particularly exceptional about this. Deletion was challenged on my talk page by the article creator with a lengthy comment which basically boils down to his belief that having been the starting point for a few stars does'' make the club notable enough for inclusion on WP.

 * Delete - failing inclusion on a football-related basis, the club would need to meet WP:ORG and I see now evidence that it does. Simply being the former club of now-notable players does not make the club notable.  St ★ lwart 1 1 1 07:19, 8 April 2015 (UTC)
