This is the cross-border competition you probably haven't heard of... but it's growing even more this weekend with the addition of two English teams. We've been looking at why the IRN-BRU Cup has gone a bit crazy in recent years.

It's a straight knock-out cup with 8 teams from other countries, and the top division under 21s (as they have in the English competition too). It's not remotely complex.

This is the next British club cup, I can't wait to see how it evolves. It's been a roaring success so far since this video among the lower league teams. It's know known as the Scottish challenge cup or caramel waver cup. I would love to see a British cup with Scottish premiership, English premier League teams, Irish, N Irish and Welsh again one day.

Was exactly 266 miles from my house to Wrexham away, as an ayr fan I loved it but given our current situation with pushing several seasons in a row now for this league and our inevitable return to the premiership then this competition was pretty meaningless to us, could tell from kick off with only reserve team players playing and not one person seemed remotely interested. None the less it was an amazing day out to go to an away day 2 countrys away and still have more fans than the home side.

I love the Idea of this competition! but Perhaps Irn Bru cup be kept for Scotland only, and a whole new Best of British Isles cup be formed? That way its all Welsh, English, Scottish and Irish Teams coming together for it? and to cover financial side of things for the smaller teams, each country participating puts one of their countries biggest sponsors in it to promote it? So Scottish Teams and the scottish side of things would be sponsored by SSE or Irn Bru, English by Vauxhall and so on!

Tbh, it would make for some unforgettable away days. Better addition to that would be a single Europa league spot at the end of the tunnel. If the cup winner already has a europa league spot, it gets handed down to the runner up. It would give teams a taste of european football and potentially give them their first European trip.

I like the idea of bringing in the premiership under 21s teams so their youth players get more experience playing against full time professional football players but it's quite a insult that lower league professional Scottish league football is being compared to Non league football in England so just do it like under 21s teams like ( Celtic, Rangers and Aberdeen and all the premiership teams) play like league 1 and 2 opposition...

JDS problem is if you look at the league tables over the past few years, in terms of the Scottish U21s, Celtic Rangers and Aberdeen are nowhere near the top. The best teams are usually hibs, Motherwell, Ross county, Hamilton and hearts. It'd be more of an insult to the general game to restrict the best U21 teams in favour of the "more popular, " ones. Senior team success doesn't equal academy success

The Irn Bru Cup is the first step to getting us what we all want. A cup where teams all across the UK and Ireland can compete against eachother. "but the UK and Ireland are too big for fans to travel at affordable prices" - with the technology that we will have in the next 25-50 years, a UK cup with a high speed train network for the fans will be possible. Support the Irn Bru Cup if you want a UK/IRE Cup.

As a Ross county fan I enjoy the competition, more for the fact we could go to somewhere never been before such as Dublin or London etc, however national league sides are tending to be brushed aside pretty easily and although I enjoy visiting grounds never seen before, it’s kinda like our mini European adventures, league 1/2 teams might be a good addition. I’d get rid of the colt teams and replace them with the top 3 teams from each Irish/ Nirish/ Welsh/ league 2 / national league

Well I love this cup. It's a shame my club's Colts team were knocked out this weekend against Sligo but what an experience it would have been for those lads. When I was under 21, i would have loved it. I think a chance for lower league clubs to play against teams from Wales, Northern Ireland and Ireland is great. But I am against the inclusion of clubs from such a low end of English football. But Sutton United and Boreham Wood have been great. Maybe asking around the Championship/League One clubs, especially the Northern clubs and invite a couple of them to the cup would have been better. Where next? Maybe invite clubs from the Faoes Isles, Iceland, Norway and help develop some of Nordic clubs as well.

I think it is great to have cross border teams in the cup. It is like European football for small sides. I think this should be extended. Have a Celtic cup, for top Scottish, Welsh, Irish sides. Have a British Premier Cup, for all Scottish Premier, Welsh Premier, Northern Irish Premier and Republic of Ireland Premier sides. Plus all English premier sides not in the European trophies. This would be massive boost for Celtic soccer. Invite all Scottish Premier ides not in Europe. plus the top 4 Welsh Premier sides and one side each from the two Irish Leagues into the Football League Trophy. (At present called the Checkatrade trophy) Invite all Welsh Premier sides into the FA Trophy (The top English non league trophy). Invite Welsh Premier, and Scottish Lowland League sides into the FA Vase. Having cross border cup tournaments is great fun it is like European soccer,. People talk about travel, but look at the distances they do in the Pro 14 rugby trophy, or the travel they have to do in Sweden, Norway, Russia and Finland. I do not support merging the British Leagues as that would destroy our football identity. But I do support cross border cups on top of European football, and on top of domestic leagues. If the English really want to help Celtic soccer then have more cross border cups with us. Inverness CT won the Irn Bru Cup in 2018. A European trophy.

Also look at the trips they have in Australia. Teams even travel to New Zealand, from Australia. And people get worked up in football, about a trip on the same little island. I recognize there is a finance issue, but that would be overcome if teams of a higher level played eachother Imagine a British Premier cup with Aberdeen V Everton. or Hibs v Cardiff City. The English Premier has so much money, if they really want to help us, they could play Scottish, Irish and Welsh sides in a group stage British Premier Cup trophy EPL teams could treat a British Premier cup like they treat the English League Cup. To blood their youngsters, and give fringe players game time in the early rounds, and then put forward first team sides in the later rounds like big sides do in the League Cup. I would never support merging the leagues, but I do support cross border cups. Also invite Scottish Premier teams into the Football League Trophy. And Welsh footy would get a massive boost if they could play in the Checktrade Trophy. Scotland did well to beat Albania last, two nights ago at Hampden, 2-0. Diolch.

Reestapha it would be cool if it was a Champions Leagues style format-obviously each association would need to remove the burden of minor cups from teams in the top two leagues at least like league cups

I think you should do a video on the league of ireland because teams like dundalk and Cork would definitely be as good as a mid table championship team so please do a video on them

HA! No they seriously wouldn't. The English championship quality has vastly improved over the last 3 or 4 years ad now the top 10 in the championship are on a similar level to mid table teams in the premier league. Look at Wolves, Fulham, Newcastle, Brighton etc. All these teams have or will finish near the top half of the premier league and teams this season like Leeds, Boro, Stoke, Swansea, Bristol, West Brom, Derby etc. Etc. Are all very good teams with a lot of quality players, the quality of football is vastly superior to the Irish prem, Wales prem and even most of the Scottish prem. Bar The top 3 in the SPL I think the championship teams would destroy them. Cork and dundalk are a lower league 1 standard at best and will probably be in a relegation struggle, look at the teams in league 1 play football. Even the quality of league 1 football has vastly improved and the players in that league would walk into a cork team. Teams like Sunderland, Portsmouth, Peterborough, Blackpool etc. All look quite good

I Thought It Was Called Irn Bru Scottish Cup

Think the best choice is (after seeing Inverness win it last year) is to remove colt teams from it and make it into a British (and potentially some european) Cup. Inverness last season, only one game against foreign opposition (Crusaders in the semis). Add more of the English, Irish, Northern Irish and Welsh teams. That's the only way clubs could potentially make income, by playing opposition they never would. When Inverness went down in 16/17 I was like "Aw christ, this is dismal, no exciting opposition" but then the Irn Bru Cup came along, did some further research into it, and was like "Holy shit, this is effectively a mini europa league. We can get an away day to Belfast or Dublin or Oswestry". Think those factors are the only benefits of not wanting to be promoted to the Premiership. Having colt sides in it, is stupid, they don't have a chance against professional teams, and act as a lucky bye to the next round. What does need to be worked on though is transport costs, surely the FAs of each nation should chip into the travel costs, like a Highland League side somehow makes it to the Third Round and has to play TNS away. There is no physical way that a team from that tier could possibly afford to travel that distance. All in all, great concept, only has to have more chances of unforgettable away days.

The "colts inclusion is pointless" argument was proven wrong with the Motherwell Colts progression to the quarter finals. I feel as if it is goes a long way in the development of young players and gets fans more engaged in the under 21 team

Jamie Bruce 1 boy found it insulting. I really couldn't care. But Derby wouldn't win the SPFL. Do you think they would have anywhere near their current team if they played up here? Did they not spend 6 million on Martyn Waghorn?? He's one of the worst strikers I've ever seen up here and he finished with more goal contributions than any one in that league....

As a fan of a team from below the top flight of Scottish football, the introduction of Colt teams from the top flight sides isn't something I'm a fan of. Paying normal admission prices to go to a near training game with no away fans except a few parents of the younger opposition isn't fun or entertaining, an opinion I've heard voiced across different forms by supporters of other teams.
