I never warmed to the League Cup, always felt the FA Cup was the one to win (rightly so) and the LC was just a Mickey Mouse tournament. This was even more so when teams began fielding a bunch of reserves in the 90's.

I can see your point, but I bet the Bradford,Swansea, Sunderland and other "smaller" clubs who have all had a day at Wembley would dis-agree.
