If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may be soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:

It seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. (See section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.
It appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), individual animal, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. (See section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. - Mr X 01:20, 5 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Notability[edit]

Sorry, but other articles are not relevant - WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. I've looked on Google for coverage of your team, and I can't see anything that I consider would pass WP:RS - it would need to be at Liverpool Echo level, not the Weekly News (and I didn't even see that). American football is rather a marginal sport in the UK, and a fairly new (less than 12 months old) team playing at a fairly low level in it isn't likely to attract much press attention. You might be able to find references that I haven't seen - let me know if you do. Not blogs, press releases, forums, lists, own site, wikis, weebly or wordpress etc pages, things like nortonandastmooronline.xxx (made up example), or local weeklies. If you do, please note that while team lists may be acceptable, fixture lists can be regarded as advertising or using Wikipedia as free webspace. Peridon (talk) 12:45, 6 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
