Sheffield Thursday F.C.

 * – ( View AfD View log )

A bunch of guys who play 5-a-side football down their local leisure centre. Not notable at all. Previously PROD'ed but (surprise surprise) PROD removed without explanation or improvement -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:14, 16 June 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete - so non-notable, it's almost stupid that we cannot speedy delete (I know, PROD'd before) Zanoni (talk) 08:22, 16 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete - Great stuff but so obviously non-notable.  Timbouctou ( talk ) 08:27, 16 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete. About as far away from meeting WP:N as it's possible to get. What's concerning is that the article has been around since April. Jenks24 (talk) 08:39, 16 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete - not even close to meeting WP:ATH or WP:GNG. Charlton Pathetic and Sheffield Thursday are great names though... Hack (talk) 09:07, 16 June 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete - non-notable team. GiantSnowman 12:07, 16 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete. As non-notable as it gets. Speedy needs to be adjusted for nonsense like this. Argyle 4 Life  talk  19:19, 16 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete, I agree, but are they really professional? Would we ever have an article on a 5 a side team? If so what criteria would we use except of course the GNG? -- Bduke   (Discussion)  03:32, 17 June 2011 (UTC)
 * There are articles on indoor soccer and futsal teams - example. Commensense would say that they'd have to be at least semi-pro to get the sort of media coverage to meet WP:GNG. Hack (talk) 05:35, 17 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Exactly, but the claim is that this club is professional, not even semi-pro, so if that is established, there might be sources that have noticed it. I would not know how to find out whether the claim is accurate. -- Bduke   (Discussion)  06:12, 17 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Take it from me, there is absolutely no chance whatsoever that a 5-a-side team playing in the Thursday night league down at their local leisure centre is professional -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:24, 17 June 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete, non-notable soccer club. --Carioca (talk) 20:55, 21 June 2011 (UTC)
