  • Delete - blatant advert of a non-notable campaign. I am a keen football supporter and a member of numerous football message boards and I am only aware of this group from their spam adverts. Fans do not sing "stand up sit down" at football grounds as claimed in the article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.127.44.154 (talk • contribs)
  • This discussion has been included in WikiProject Football's list of football (soccer) related deletions. ChrisTheDude 07:26, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep Reasonably well known campaign group in English football (cited by the BBC and Daily Telegraph (by a former Sports Minister!) amongst others) . Article does need a re-write though. Number 57 08:11, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep This is actually quite a well known campaign that has gained media coverage. Dave101→talk  19:13, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete I have heard of this group simply because a couple of the organisers have posted from time to time on a fans forum that I keep an eye on. However, I am not certain that it really is that notable outside a small number of people who attend football matches. The Telegraph article mentions SUSD only in passing, the BBC article is better but is about the issue rather than the group. I would like to see multiple, independent, significant sources about the group itself and a rewrite using those sources, as the article as it stands reads like a promotional page, before accepting it as an encyclopedic article. --Malcolmxl5 21:24, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep and rewrite. A notable campaign. Englishrose 12:09, 26 August 2007 (UTC)
