You have to laugh at the name of some of these cup competitions - Checkatrade

Yes indeed, can you remember the Milk Cup

[Spud]

I remember the Milk Cup, its the old League Cup before being sponsored.
What do they call it nowadays
I think there should be no sponsoring of any cups or even leagues for that matter.

[Bruno]

I suppose with the game being all about money nowadays they need the sponsors but I don't agree with certain things.
For instance cup runs.
If some fan boasts of having won the Milk Cup, who nowadays will understand this?
I think it just devalues things like this.

[Dreamer]

Am I to understand that this silly Checkatrade Trophy had a different name before then?
