Which is greater, winning the Championship or the League Cup

by Thaumagurist* » 09 Jun 2009 16:09

Harold has laughed off my suggestion that the Championship is a greater prize than the League Cup. I think it is, because it shows that you've won a trophy on your way to promotion to the top flight and therefore riches. The League Cup? Does it even guarantee entry to Europe and what is the prize in terms of money? :|

Spacey

The League Cup is a competition ALL league clubs enter and it gets you into Europe!

The Championship is just a route into the top division!

Was this a trick question!

Reading have won the Championship and might do so again

I doubt we will win the League cup in a long time.

Use this to decide your answer, Spacefiller.

If I had a choice of winning the championship or winning the league cup, right now i'd be tempted to go for the league cup as it would be unique in the club's history.

From the above comments, I guess that puts me in the minority.

Championship is more difficult to win, but nobody cares who wins either of them so it doesn't really matter.

I think it puts you in the majority.

National title or 2nd tier?

We can go up with out being champions, we can't win the cup without winning the cup.

Completly different competitions, pretty stupid question

Championship is nice to win but honestly, no-one gives a sh1t whether you're first or second, as long as you go up

League Cup you have to win if you get there, no prize for not winning that.

Its a major cup competition, of course it would be better (in terms of rewards and recognition) to win it
