Comment - given my heavy involvement in closing football related AfDs I will specifically abstain from any vote, but I think it is worthwhile as an administrator seconding Randykitty's relisting rationale. FOOTYN is not a guidelines, it is merely an essay within a WikiProject. It quite clearly says:
Per Wikipedia:Notability (sports)#Teams, teams are required to meet the general notability guideline. The following guidance may indicate at what level teams generally have enough coverage to meet the GNG.
Its obvious from this that FOOTYN cannot be cited on its own as a valid Keep rationale it is a locally determined essay suggesting a line beyond which clubs can be expected to have coverage sufficient to meet. It is still on individual editors to evidence this. Clearly following this comment I should not be involved in the close of this AfD, but I hope editors can focus more 9n GNG hare rather than local consensus.
