Partly right, lots of tourists and day trippers paying big sums to watch matches, but....try saying that to the 90% who are regular supporters. Not sure fans of Carlisle who do the 800 mile round trip to a midweek away at Plymouth would agree. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlCapone 7,678 Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 The point is English clubs play reserve teams in the league cup and soon the same in the FAcup. Why on earth would there clubs want another meaningless cup competition that won’t draw crowds or tv revenue? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could maybe call it the Texaco cup and run it for a couple of years in the early 70s then abandon the idear because of a total lack of interest.

King Jela 20,360 Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 Why is everyone so confident we'll be fine after all this btw? Folk talking about killing off most of Scottish football and such but we're never getting into England. Pure fantasy. Even folk still desperately clinging on to the notion after all these years is pretty pathetic. And again, what's the guarantee we'll be fine in all this?

Can’t get my head round why we think anyone in England would want another cup with Arbroath, arithmetic rovers and Edinburgh city in it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
