Does anyone have any strong views about how detailed the articles on each ECB Premier League should be?

The article on the Birmingham League is long and contains lots of historical information, much of which even the league's own management probably wouldn't know. Many of the others are one sentence and a list of champions.

Should we be including league tables? Many articles on football competitions include league tables year by year, but none of the Premier League cricket articles do. Most of those league tables are on the league's own websites which are linked, so anyone who wants the information is directed to where to find it, but a few are nowhere on the Internet. Ought they to be here? Rochester Valiant (talk) 15:35, 27 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I see that the Bradford League has been added to the list, but I can find no evidence for it actually having been granted ECB Premier League status. It doesn't help that the ECB's own list of Premier Leagues is two years out of date and so no longer of much use as a source. I'm reluctant to remove Bradford because its presence might be correct, and the person who added it seems to be from the Bradford area - but I would like a source. Anyone?

I have now removed the Bradford League from the list, as I can find no source for it having been given ECB Premier League status. If there is a reputable source for it having that status, then please add it back in. The Greater Manchester League has also been reported as seeking ECB Premier League status, but again I can find no source for that status having been awarded and so it is not listed at present. Anyone? Rochester Valiant (talk) 00:33, 4 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
