The competition has become a farce imho .I really don't get the condemnation of the reformat. I think it should have improved it (obviously I am alone in this view because attendances have been terrible).
One criticism is that the U21 teams should have been prem only but I can see the logic behind the reformat.

Because they have diluted it and then decided to include Premier and Championship clubs and so many of them turned down the opportunity of participating, making it a joke.I know this is the consensus but can I ask why?
You're a clown fellato Brighton YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS !

If all the Premier clubs U21 sides had joined in then maybe I can see the point, but they made it a voluntary decision and lots of the big clubs simply said no.
Why make it into leagues too? Should be just a straight knock out like all the other domestic completions such as the FA Cup, League Cup, FA Vase etc.
Fans have voted with their feet.
Don't care if it's a shit trophy or not , it was created for the lower tier and that's how it should stay.Don't see why the league system is something to bemoan.. works OK for the champions league, europa and many others.. Differentiates it from the other domestic cups as you mention.
Fully agree that its a shame there were no big prem league teams... I genuinely believe Coventry v Man United U23 would gather more interest than Coventry v league 2 team. This is backed up by the fact our game against West Ham u23 got more than double the attendance of the game against Wycombe.
I would stick with the new format but encourage the bigger clubs to participate and then you've got a much better cup than just league 1 & 2 teams knocking about against each other.
You're a clown fella
Think there'd be more like 60.000 cov fansThis is coventrys worse team ever.i would love a trip to Wembley just to highlight shitty sisu.
Spot on !Don't care if it's a shit trophy or not , it was created for the lower tier and that's how it should stay.
If they needed extra teams then the conference has more than enough to invite.
