Season article for a club playing at the sixth tier (and the second level of semi-professional football). This clearly fails WP:NSEASONS and there is significant precedence that season articles are not notable even for clubs in the division above. The original prod was removed by the article creator with the rationale that this was "disrespectful towards the league and the clubs within the league" and that there "is a strong interest in this page from Darlington fans". Neither of these are valid reasons for keeping the article. Number 5 7 10:44, 1 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - fails WP:NSEASONS and does not have any more coverage than teams in the National League who do not have articles. Kosack (talk) 12:48, 1 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - fails WP:NSEASONS; since the club isn't professional, this season does not have automatic nobility, and there isn't enough coverage to meet WP:GNG. 21.colinthompson (talk) 15:29, 1 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per above on Nseasons. Govvy (talk) 18:21, 1 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per the above re NSEASONS/GNG. Unless the creator or another can demonstrate a good reasons it seems fairly open and shut. Nosebagbear (talk) 18:31, 1 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
