The British League Cup

[degsy]

Only just seen this but David Moyes has suggested changing the EFL cup to include clubs from Scotland, Wales and NI, personally think it's a good idea, make a few interesting away games and could be good for the club's with not much money

This is after someone from UEFA said the competition should be scrapped, obviously to keep the cry arses happy about fixture congestion

I'd like us to win the league cup before it's scrapped or changed though FFS, but it should defo be kept and maybe a change is what it needs

No.
UEFA / FIFA think on the quiet we should be 1 F.A not 4 football Associations and anything that plays into their hands should be avoided
Scrap the league cup by all means though

just plain NO from me.

Whats the point.

Yeah, don't like that UEFA are suggesting getting rid, if sides like Liverpool and City don't like the fixture congestion then let them opt out or something, there is a lot of clubs in that competition that won't ever get a sniff at European football, so to suggest that those fans should forgo the chance to win a trophy or a day out at Wembley is a joke really

I really dislike the idea of clubs opting out. They CAN opt out by fielding weakened sides in Cup competitions (which most do). I'd love to see those opting out get docked 6 points, the whinging gets.

UEFA should be ignored on this. How dare they interfere. They're only interested in maximising their own cash collection.

The idea of including Scotland etc is quite a cute one though, in my view. I like it.

Rangers and Celtic would have to enter at the same level as the 4th division sides obviously, not when the 1st division sides like us come in later.

They will struggle against championship sides.

Given I now live in Edinburgh yes please, Hearts or Hibbs away.

Brilliant idea! Defo don’t scrap it.
