Could not locate any reliable sources; sources currently referenced are either non-independent or self-published blogs, and a WP:BEFORE only turns up with similarly self-published sites (no indication of fact-checking etc). As a result, the subject fails the general notability guideline. eviolite (talk) 02:09, 21 September 2022 (UTC)

- Delete Agree doesn't meet notability requirements for WP:CLUB, scope is not national in scale. Mr.weedle (talk) 04:46, 21 September 2022 (UTC)
- Delete - plays well below the level considered notable by WP:FOOTY and no evidence of in-depth coverage in reliable independent secondary sources to pass WP:GNG. If by any chance it gets kept, the article should be moved to Portobello F.C. to be consistent with all other English football club articles -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:07, 21 September 2022 (UTC)
- Delete: not notable article. Found nothing usable in a search. --Bigneeerman (talk) 13:59, 21 September 2022 (UTC)

- Delete All coverage seems to be either from the club, related parties or self-published sources. No sign of detailed coverage in reliable, independent sources. Spike 'em (talk) 12:04, 22 September 2022 (UTC)
- Delete - no evidence of notability. If sources are found please ping me. GiantSnowman 12:20, 22 September 2022 (UTC)
- Delete - I can't find any coverage. Nfitz (talk) 01:08, 23 September 2022 (UTC)
- Delete - A club playing at this level is unlikely to have the sort of coverage or notability that would justify it having its own Wikipedia article and I can see nothing that would suggest that this club is an exception. Dunarc (talk) 22:39, 26 September 2022 (UTC)
