The Mostly Irrelevant League Cup
It's that time of the year when Singapore goes into yawnodrive over the League Cup. Just imagine it; 12 clubs from the SLeague, no Harimau Muda, who play each other twice in the SLeague as well as having a bloody good chance of playing each other in the Singapore Cup can also lock horns in this pot designed to keep the local pools company.
The 12 teams are drawn into four groups of three with the top two going into the next round. The teams that finish bottom will still have something to play for with something called Plate Competition.
The complete draw can be found on this spreadsheet. I can't be arsed covering it. It's pointless and adds nothing to the Singapore season. Crowds are plummeting so the answer of the Singapore FA is have the same teams who can't attract any fans to play each other more often?
Is this all part of SLeague 2.0?
