I see that groups are made up of 4 teams that is 3 teams from league 2 & 3 plus 1 invited team from the premier league.
Previously it was agreed the invited teams would have just 3 players over 21 plus a goalkeeper now that has been upgraded to 5 over 21s.
So by round 2 of this competition it will most likely be 16 invited premier teams & 16 teams from league 2 & 3 if the premier league clubs.
Just how is this an attractive format for lower league clubs, don’t think I’ll bother to watch the primo-donnas contest the final
