Well its a good few years since we were in this comp but had a couple of trips to Wembley in the 80's & 90's, winning once. Now it seems to have been reinvented as a dog's breakfast. This summed it up nicely for me:

Everyone seems to have boycotted your thread, Speed 3, just like they seem to be boycotting the EFL trophy games!

Apparently the shirt numbers of the Leicester U21 team last night added up to more than the attendance....

It's a farce and needs to be shut down. I support a Premier League team who has an U23 team in this and it's great for them.... but it's another way the Premier League is building itself at the expense of the lower league clubs. Its more games with no profit to be made from them and pointless for most supporters. The attendances were shocking!!
