Deletion
editthis page should not be deleted as it is a genuine article about a well known irish soccer club
- Is this club playing at the highest level of professional soccer in Ireland? Can you provide reliable sources that discuss its significance? -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 22:03, 22 September 2009 (UTC)
this article seems to be up for deletion. this seems unfair as the club are a well known dublin amateur soccer club with a respected history of bringing through young players who later have become professional players.
articles on similar clubs such Stillorgan Lakelands F.C. and Vale_View_Shankill_F.C. have been allowed and these clubs would not be as well known in the league system as Manortown.
this club has won trophies such as the Milk Cup and regularly competes at the FAI CUP and FAI Junior Cup, two trophies of some history and prestige in domestic soccer in Ireland.
The club has also been featured as the central theme of an RTE television program.
For these reasons, and that articles on clubs similar to itself have been accepted, i feel it would be grossly unfair if this article was deleted.
(ps. i am new to editing wikipedia, so i apologise if i have posted this in an incorrect location)
