Yeah, it's kind of like the 'Participation Trophy' they give to special needs kids at school just for showing up, so they don't feel left out.
I'll still take it, though. It's been so long since we've had anything in our trophy cabinet.
Obviously it's the least prestigious of the European trophies. And even though I'm not a fan of the format(s) and seeding of UEFA competitions, it has as much validity as a competition as the other two have. It's not like the old club world cup, or the super cup, or the charity shield. You have to put a shift in to be successful. It can also get you in the Europa if you win it, and you get CL for winning that.
If we ever did win it, we'd headed in a much better direction than we are now. So absolutely, I'd take it.
