Having started life in the late 1950s as an opportunity for clubs to take advantage of their new-fangled floodlights, the League Cup, in its many sponsored guises, has, since its inception, been an easily dismissed competition. Unless, of course, your team wins it. In the build-up to this weekend's final, we take a walk down Amnesnia Lane to see if we can recollect anything from the most recent finals, which have been dominated by Manchester City.
Of course the winners may already be decided, if the conspiracy theories regarding biased referees, held by a small but vocal corner of Liverpool fandom, are to be believed.
Of course we lead with the League Cup final at Wembley between Chelsea and Liverpool - a repeat of the classic final of 2005. Get our FREE weekly newsletter in your email by signing up to the Weekend Boxset today.
