List of clubs deemed by someone (the author, I would imagine) as being 'People's Clubs.' No independent sources back that assumption. A check for sources about the English "people's club" (since I can't read any other language) seems to be all Liverpool forums and blogs about Everton F.C. (a cross-town rival to Liverpool F.C) and their failed attempt to trademark the term. Seems entirely non-notable. Achowat (talk) 18:33, 2 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete Seems to be entirely original research. I don't see how anyone can rank a team as being a People's Club. Based on what? There doesn't seem to be any kind of criteria other than "is a name given to association football clubs in a region for fan support". Doesn't seem to be an official title or anything. Surely all medium to large clubs can claim to have fan support in a region? Del♉sion23 (talk) 02:40, 3 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - OR supporting poorly defined term not in common usage -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:27, 3 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per all above. Whatever the article creator has in mind, they haven't clearly explained the criteria for determining whether a football club should be classified as a "people's club", nor have they provided sources to show that the clubs listed here are called "people's clubs". --Metropolitan90 (talk) 23:55, 3 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - as Chris says, this is not in wide use at all - as the lack of reliable sources shows. GiantSnowman 12:18, 4 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete as unreferenced OR. Fenix down (talk) 10:43, 5 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - list criteria not clear and no references given for the term itself. --Jameboy (talk) 15:49, 7 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - WP:OR and not notable. Mentoz86 (talk) 18:24, 7 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
