Keep If you look at the football pyramid there are a lot of leagues that have pages created for them which would fail the WP:FOOTYN. If we accept that this article is not notable then we are now putting in a policy to delete all leagues at step 7 (level 11) and below as they cannot play in the FA cup. => Spudgfsh (Text Me!) 18:09, 30 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Really don't see how it fails WP:FOOTYN - clubs are eligible for the FA Vase and FA Cup, and two clubs this season are in the FA Vase. Strange nomination. => Kivo 19:47, 31 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Only clubs at level 10 and above can play in the FA cup so the clubs in this division are not eligable but I agree with you WRT the FA vase. => Spudgfsh (Text Me!) 19:10, 31 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep This league is a feeder to level 10 and features several clubs that have achieved notability. Technically all leagues taht allow passage for clubs to get to level 10 are notable.Babylon77 (talk) 21:18, 31 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I agree with the comments made in this discussion by those advocating for the retention of this article. This league is notable enough for clubs to gain entry into the FA's national cup competitions plus as established a long time ago, individual clubs at this level which have either previously played at a higher level or have played in a national FA competition are considered notable enough for separate articles by the Wikipedia:WikiProject Football/English non-league task force.(Rillington (talk) 02:11, 1 August 2013 (UTC))[reply]
Keep - does the article need cleaning up? Yes. Does it need proper referencing? Yes. Is it notable? Yes. Giant Snowman 08:46, 1 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
