  • Note: This discussion has been included in WikiProject Football's list of association football-related deletions. GiantSnowman 18:25, 12 April 2011 (UTC)
  • Delete - non-notable match, as two previous AfDs show. GiantSnowman 18:26, 12 April 2011 (UTC)
  • Keep - quite clearly meets WP:GNG. This match has plenty of reliable sources that address the subject "directly and in detail". In addition, as I said in the last AfD "I quote from the Guardian "This may well be as great a comeback as English football has ever known" and Kevin Keegan "They'll talk about this game long after we're dead and gone"". The last AfD closed as merge not delete. However, the merged material is not there now so a standalone article now seems the best way to go. TerriersFan (talk) 22:46, 12 April 2011 (UTC)
    • You could say that about a lot of games. Alex Ferguson described United's 4-3 win over City last season as the greatest derby win ever, but we don't have an article about that game even though there are masses of web sources about it. If we had an article for every game with decent coverage, we'd have hundreds! Anyway, we already had an AfD for an article about this very game, and the consensus was to delete. Why on earth does User:Mancini's Lasagne invite to Harry seem to believe he is completely above the rest of the community? – PeeJay 22:58, 12 April 2011 (UTC)
      • "If we keep this then we will have ooo's of others" is never a good argument. Firstly we never do because we don't have the editors prepared or interested to write one. Secondly, if many other articles on other notable or unusual matches as well written and sourced as this one are produced so what? We are not paper and can accommodate as many such articles that people are prepared to write. I have yet to see a policy-based deletion argument here - what we have are "I don't like it".

  • Delete per previous AfD. Btw, if this article is kept, it will need to be moved, as we do not allow subpages in the mainspace on the English Misplaced Pages. – PeeJay 22:58, 12 April 2011 (UTC)
