Hello, yes welcome to the Capital One Cup Thread for the 2014/15 season. How exciting.


What is the Capital One Cup/Football League Cup?

They are one and the same. The Football League Cup is the third of the major domestic English trophies along with the Premier League and the FA Cup. In all honesty for the last 15 years it's been treating as joke by the bigger English teams, but most of the time one of them end up winning it anyway.

Last season saw Manchester City beat some mackam binmen in the final at Wembley.



So why should I care about it?

Well if you are a top four supporting shitlord plastic you probably won't until you flick over onto Sky one Sunday in April and find your boys taking the field at Wembley. For the rest of us REAL FANS it represents one of the few slim chances for our clubs to attain glory during our lifetime. In the last ten years Swansea City, Birmingham City and the mighty Middlesbrough FC have managed to win it.

So when does it start?

Right now! The big clubs don't enter until the 3rd round, but for now the football league teams are contesting the first round of this historic tournament.

Here's the fixture list for the first round



Here's hoping we see something like this again
