Contested PROD by the author but this club is still not actually notable given that it's not notable as listed by Wikipedia:WikiProject Football/Notability (Richhill's league is not notable). SwisterTwister talk 21:36, 3 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - article does meet the club notability criterion, i.e. 'All teams that have played in the national cup are assumed to meet WP:N criteria'. The club is drawn in the first round of the Irish Cup, the national cup of Northern Ireland. Mooretwin (talk) 22:41, 3 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I guess from the wording ("still not actually notable") that the club has been listed as their debut match in the 2016-17 Irish Cup is scheduled for 20th August 2016, and the wording of Wikipedia:WikiProject Football/Notability is" teams that have played in the national cup"? This seems unnecessary pedantry - keep. --Super Nintendo Chalmers (talk) 08:42, 4 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
