The talk page shows that the validity of this article has been questioned several times, going back to 2006. The article starts off by stating "A British Football League is a proposed association football league in the United Kingdom that would involve the merger of clubs from the present Scottish, Welsh, and Northern Irish football league systems into the larger English football league system". However, there have never been any serious/official proposals to merge all the UK's football leagues together. Occasionally there have been vague rumblings that the biggest two Scottish clubs should relocate into the English League, leaving the rest behind, but that's not the same thing at all, and can be covered by a sentence or two in the appropriate article about football in Scotland. As there have never been any serious/advanced proposals to form a single football league for the whole UK, I don't think an article on it is merited.

- Delete as it seems to violate WP:CRYSTAL and the GNG etc... To be honest, I'd never heard of it until I saw this article. Blue Square Thing (talk) 07:45, 21 September 2012 (UTC)
- Comment A news search for the article brings up several different hits for "British Football League", none of which seem to have anything to do with this article. Not sure what the best course of action would be, based on that. --Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 09:04, 21 September 2012 (UTC)
