According to the bloke who dreamed it up, the revamped Paint Pot Trophy has been a great success.
6 of the 16 Category A clubs (i.e. mainly foreign owned global businesses) that were invited to join in refused to do so.
Half of the 16 (almost) Category A teams failed to qualify from their groups.
Average attendances were down from 3,221 to 1,404 (-56%) with only 274 watching West Brom B (or should that be 'almost A') against Gillingham.

Oh, but sponsorship money was up, so that's the benchmark for success, I guess.

As previously said, I'm staggered a business like Checkatrade, which is or should be all about trust and honest reviews, had anything to do with it.
