Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Newcastle United F.C. 0–1 Crystal Palace F.C. (1907)
I am hampered by not being able to read the newspaper reports of the period but (anyway, and particularly after looking at the article creator's contribution record) I am willing to accept that the coverage was substantial. In itself this could be regarded as merely routine reporting but I see the match is still being written about by reliable sources over a hundred years later. To me that establishes notability in the  sense. I think it a defect that otability (sports) has little historical perspective (although  does seem to be met) and that FOOTY restricts itself to personalities. However, those are problems with the specific guidelines and not with the article itself
