The result was no consensus. A fair argument can be made that the article was created prematurely, but given that there is at least some shreds of information and the season will clearly be taking place in the not-too-distant future, there's no real consensus to delete it. ~ mazca ^talk 22:04, 28 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Article created prematurely, considering the 2012–13 season has yet to conclude. Mattythewhite (talk) 17:56, 18 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - I would say WP:CRYSTAL does not apply here - "Individual scheduled or expected future events should be included only if the event is notable and almost certain to take place" applies here. However, while it is 99.99% certain to happen in a few months, there isn't actually anything of note we can say on the subject for a few weeks/months. Delete, and re-create in due course.

Keep - I would say that there is no point for deletion for 2 reasons. 1st reason is that this article can be used as a reference of CONFIRMED events that will happen in the future, like for example a confirmed new manager or the recently revealed 2013/2014 jersey. The 2nd reason is that if you propose that we're going to make this page again in the future, I don't see the point of deletion in the first place. Longo jahado 1:27, 19 April 2013 (UTC)
Keep Per WP:CRYSTAL - "Individual scheduled or expected future events should be included only if the event is notable and almost certain to take place". Lugnuts ^{Dick Laurent is dead} 07:55, 19 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep -- I might have voted "delete as premature", but the staryt is only 3.5 months away, so I desist fromthat. Peterkingiron (talk) 15:39, 22 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
