The RSSSF coverage is just a bunch of stats and doesn't address Retard United in enough depth. Nothing in my searches suggests that this football club meets WP:GNG. We also have WP:FOOTYN but that guideline states that football clubs must ultimately meet GNG to have a stand-alone article about them. Spiderone^{(Talk to Spider)} 15:52, 24 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - probably delete. Seriously, who would have thought you would see a football club with this name! Although somewhat funny, I agree there are issues with GNG here. Govvy (talk) 16:09, 24 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Given that there are also clubs with the names HasBeens, Two Boats Rowdies, Real Socialdads and Inbetweeners, I'm guessing that this league doesn't take itself very seriously! Spiderone^{(Talk to Spider)} 16:17, 24 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This is basically a pub league which happens to be the only league in a tiny territory and therefore is treated by some sources as its "national" league (even though it isn't a nation...........) -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 19:44, 24 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Ascension Island Football League; possible search term but not independently notable. Giant Snowman 16:15, 24 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect all of these to Ascension Island Football League, unless separate notability is reliably sourced. BD2412 T 05:55, 25 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect as above, although TBH I suspect a debate could be had about whether the league itself is even notable..... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:57, 25 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Ascension Island Football League, although I did have myself a big chuckle reading the name.--Ortizesp (talk) 21:03, 25 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect per others. --ArsenalFan700 (talk) 19:43, 26 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
