Show notes

The League Cup, with its countless changes of sponsorship and trophy, is a tournament has been a part of the English football calendar for almost 60 years, within which time it has been loved and scorned in equal measure, from the early years when many clubs opted not to take part, through its 1970s and 80s heyday, to an era where the top clubs give it a near-scant regard. However, the League Cup has been a stepping stone to greater successes for some, while upon occasion it has arguably changed the course of football history.
