• Cambridge FC → Cambridge F.C.
• Cambridge F.C. → Cambridge F.C. (disambiguation)

– FC is an acronym of "football club", plus I cannot see any benefit of having the disambiguation page when City and United have clearly different names. Abcmaxx (talk) 20:01, 25 July 2020 (UTC)

• Oppose move. They refer to themselves as Cambridge FC, no punctuation. O.N.R. ^(talk) 06:52, 26 July 2020 (UTC)

@O.N.R. - do they they? Where is the proof for that? Actually all I can see form their website is that they refer to themselves as Cambridge Football Abcmaxx (talk) 12:27, 26 July 2020 (UTC)

At least on desktop, the string "Cambridge FC" appears 11 times on the home page; "Cambridge F.C." does not appear at all. (I know they're a primary source for themselves, but they consistently style their own name that specific way.) O.N.R. ^(talk) 19:18, 26 July 2020 (UTC)

• Oppose - it is standard to use 'FC' rather than 'F.C.' for New Zealand clubs, as shown by Category:Association football clubs in New Zealand. GiantSnowman 21:20, 26 July 2020 (UTC)
