Carabao 'bring it on' and become new sponsor of EFL Cup

Posted: Fri 04 Nov 2016
Author: EFL

The EFL and Carabao have today announced a three-year deal that will see the Thai energy drinks brand become the Official Title Sponsor of the EFL Cup and Official EFL partner.

The exclusive partnership will see the competition become known as the ‘Carabao Cup’ from the start of the 2017/18 season, with the deal running until 2020.

The growing global appeal of the EFL Cup was pivotal to securing the sponsorship and it is anticipated that the Carabao relationship will provide the EFL with a platform to reach new audiences in the ASEAN region and support additional growth of the competition.

It's usually a day or two before the league fixtures come out which, for the EFL, is the 21st of June.

Does anyone actually drink this stuff? Necking just two bottles a day in Thailand is dangerous, much worse than the Western brands.

Let's not get all moral at this stage. We need something to keep the addicts pumping money in to the gambling sponsors.

Also noticed that after the roaring success of the 1st round draw the 3rd round draw later this month will take place in China. I'm looking forward to them drawing out Melchester Rovers vs the Renford Rejects or concocting a similar balls up.
