In association football, a League Cup or Secondary Cup generally signifies a cup competition for which entry is restricted only to teams in a particular league. The first national association football tournament to be called "League Cup" was held in Scotland in 1946–47 and was entitled the Scottish League Cup. However, in the Republic of Ireland the now defunct League of Ireland Shield was the first national league-only tournament of its kind; this was subsequently replaced by the League of Ireland Cup in 1973.
The creation of a League Cup marked the difference from the Association Cup or Primary Cup, which is generally also open to teams from multiple leagues, often as far down as regional amateur leagues, and who are also members of the country's football association.
The creation of a tournament of this kind exclusively for the top national-level league teams, in addition to the two main domestic association football tournaments of the league and association cup, also created a new national footballing achievement called the domestic "treble"; see Treble (association football). The first national league treble of this kind was won by Shamrock Rovers of the Republic of Ireland in 1925.
Heading for corruption
No spirit or conscience
A bloodbath in waiting
On the threshold of peace
Sabotage the history
Soak the pain in apathy
Hide the toll of misery
Camouflage democracy
Heading for corruption
they prostitute the suffering
And bury our impulse
To see through the shame
Shatter their dependency
Massacre maliciously
Infiltrate stupidity
Murder their prosperity
Spokesmen - the shallow eyes leer
Invoking - a structure of fear
Applauding - the hidden regime
Denouncing - logical schemes
Heading for corruption - the tears of disbelief
Sanity - smothered
Heading for corruption - the source and the catalyst
Insanity - swallowed
Dead sea scroll deception
Dead sea scroll deception.
