Independent Leyton Orient Forum

Anyone got a list of previous sponsors of this cup tournament?
Or can you confirm some of these:
Johnstones Paint Dry
Checkatrade
Leyland Daf
Rumbelows
Zenith Motors

Rumbelows was the league Cup I think.

Wasn’t this the LDV Vans back in the day?

30 seconds on wiki revealed this.
1983–84: No sponsor
1984–85 to 1986–87: Freight Rover Trophy
1987–88 to 1988–89: Sherpa Van Trophy
1989–90 to 1991–92: Leyland DAF Cup
1992–93 to 1993–94: Autoglass Trophy
1994–95 to 1999–2000: Auto Windscreens Shield
2000–01 to 2006–07: LDV Vans Trophy
2007–08 to 2015–16: Johnstone's Paint Trophy
2016–17 to 2018–19: Checkatrade Trophy[27]
2019–20: Leasing.com Trophy[a]
2020–21 to present: Papa Johns Trophy

WTF was the Simod Cup?

Will always be the Auto-Windscreen Shield to me, our gallant run to the area semi in the otherwise disastrous 94/95 season seared into my brain.

Associate Members Trophy
Freight Rover Trophy


Rumbelows was League Cup

Simod Cup was for top 2 divisions only when we were banned from European Competition aka Full Members Trophy and Zenith Data Systems Trophy

Bring back the Watney Cup

But not their beer.

Very much looking forward to the possibility of us not being in the draw next year and the chance of W*** H** being in it.

Bring back the Anglo Scottish Cup!

What draw would we not be in next year?

And how will West Ham be in it?

Bring back the Dubonnet Cup! As previous winners, it would be nice to get this back in our trophy cabinet

Probably not viable due to finances/climate concerns but would love to see the Anglo-Italian make a comeback. Or Anglo-Scottish Cup (for SPL teams and League Two sides to keep it fair).

If we go up this season and next we will be in the Championship for the 24/25 season

Would that mean we could enter our reserves?

Do they still do the London 5 a sides competition, as l believe we won that a long time ago.
