The Carabao Cup seems like some kind of quirky, subversive activity these days.

Very rare for us to play them ..went in 85 , seem to remember it bucketed down , though did go the home game in 75 when they were in the old 1st division ) and went there for the U21 EFL trophy game in 2018 .. 1-1 Campbell scored for us

Just bin the waste of space space cup Think there would be more respect towards the only thing we've ever won Was 50 years ago A competition where teams play a second string , open one stand in some cases ,shouldn't really limp along because we won it before many of us born. In those days teams played full teams, crowds turned up now they simply.don't unless a trip to a big club to see them field players you've hardly heard of it or there's a chance you're a club who rarely wins things and you might get to the final then they appear in later rounds.

Clubs have ruined both cup comps ..though in fairness upto Swindon getting the final , the LCup was treated by the big clubs very much as it is today
Its a game and occasionally an opportunity to go to rarer places ..decent enough competition for those that care and often cheap giving kids a chance they perhaps wouldn’t normally get ..for those that don’t just like any other game no ones forcing you to go ( appreciate some clubs have mandatory cup schemes connected to their season tickets ) so there always the telly ( and this yr I believe all the League Cup games will be televised , so gates likely to be hit further

So do you think all domestic cup competitions should be scrapped. Just the Championship games? I think there is at least a case for it being an opportunity for squad players to play some competitive football.

I agree for all its detractors it’s still a worthwhile competition , certainly with more cred than finishing 4th and qualifying for the champions ( sic ) league

Top 4 is miles better in just about every way other than some buzz for fans a few hours. Better financially better for attracting top players and on and on and on. The day you finish 4th might not be the same buzz as a trophy but the benefits would last a lot longer.

Brilliant!!!
I’ve never been to Brunton Park and every single cup draw for about the last 30 years I’ve been wanting Carlisle (A) to come out of the hat.

It’s still the only proper trophy we have ever won! Chelsea did not play their second string and were trying as hard as they could to win it.
