Is the carling cup really a major trophy?

**NeilMcD** · 24/02/2008, 10:03 PM

Well its as important as the FA Cup as it gets you the same outcome, qualification to the Uefa Cup

I doubt if most people would agree, I mean the so called best 20 clubs in England aren'r eligible for the championship

If you are talking about what they are worth financially, then just promotion from the championship to the premiership is possibly worth more than winning the FA Cup.

I also have to laugh with Grant saying that Chelsea were the better team. At least Drogba was honest and fair. Good game though and delighted for Keane may he win many more honours in the game both at club and international level

It is for Spurs.

**Serb** · 25/02/2008, 12:15 AM

Based on Spur's current league position, it may have been the only way for them to get back into Europe. I suppose they still have a good chance with the UEFA Cup, but they are guaranteed to be back in Europe next season now, so good for them.

Oh, and congrats to Robbie!

Off the pitch he was but on the pitch he was up to his old antics of arching his back in pain from the slightest bit of contact, anyway its great to see Robbie win something and hopefully its the first of many, looks like he now has good managers both at club and international level to get the best out of him

Delighted for Robbie, though dont think he had much luck himself on the day. Ref picked a very odd time to blow up the game. Great final - at this stage, the carling cup is offering more excitment/better games than the much talked up fa cup.
