Competition for scabs

Similar to the Nitty Nora Trophy?

If we get West Ham woof at the London Stadium, every orient mug fan will be there.

I’ll go if they play it at the Old Spotted Dog Ground

This tournament has been ruined by the EFL. The previous incarnation was never a priority, but it had some really enjoyable games and the straight knockout format worked.

I take it we'll be going all out to win this one like fans demanded of the FA Trophy?

I don’t think the academy teams can play at home. They have to play all their group games away.

The O's will take on League One sides, AFC Wimbledon and Southend United with an *invited Club from the Premier League or Championship to be announced on Friday, July 12 at 12:30pm.

• Arsenal

• Brighton & Hove Albion

• Chelsea

• Fulham

• Norwich City

• Southampton

• Tottenham Hotspur

• West Ham United

What a load of b******s

I have literally no idea about any of this.

I thought the carabo cup was the league cup?

Correct.

This was the Checkatrade/Johnstone Paint/LDV Trophy.

The EFL Trophy is for 3rd and 4th tier + academy of 1st and 2nd tier aka Checkatrade Trophy
The EFL Cup is for all EFL and Premier League teams aka Carabao Cup.
League One is Division 3
The Championship is Division 2
And Division 1 is the Premier League
And the Champions League is a competition where over half the teams that qualify are not Champions. And it isn't a league, it is a cup. Mostly.
and the Europa League is a competition that isn't a league and has Champions in it when they get knocked out by non-champions.

Clear?

I think I've got it, cheers fella.

Which one is the Simod Cup?

That is the old Milk Cup I believe.

Personally I miss the Anglo-Scotch cup.

Didn't we win that once?

Nah, Milk Cup is League Cup.

Although why was it called Milk Cup? Was it sponsored by milk?

Yes and the Calcium Cup didn't sound right.

Tempting.

Guaranteed a sh*t non-london 'invited' club.

Wasn't it brighton last time we were in it?
