More shit names to contend with. Where is the FAC dates?. I would not be surprised if all three divisions are called something new soon! Hate modern football in so many ways.
It seems like the various cup naming rights are increasingly based on a winning scrabble word from a late night game at the league offices. I can't wait for the Ultracrepidarian Cup 2025!

Carabao? What the?
But on a serious note, good to see that Boxing day fixtures are on...boxing day this year
Thanks DJ.
The Karibu Cup? Oh deer.
Water Buffalo actually!

Carabao is an energy drink and they sponsor Chelsea Training Kits.
I thought it was an album by Elton John.
I thought it was an hybrid Canadian Elk thingy!
@Cyclops & @EwanHoosaami - Unfortunately neither of you possess the brilliant intellect and knowledge of Richie!
Richie can google with the best of them.
Doesn't 5th August seem really early or is it just me?
I guess it was 6th August last year.....just feels too early, I mean people are still on summer hols etc.
Always feels counterproductive starting so early but not having an August bank holiday Monday fixture.
