Teams fined for playing understrength sides

Post by God is an Englishman »

Several teams have been fined for playing understrength sides in the EFL (Checkatrade) Trophy (including Millwall).
EFL teams must feature either five players who either played in the last or will the play the next game, or the five that have played most often.

that seems fair. should at least try and take the competition seriously. or clubs should vote against it and have the efl trophy withdrawn from fixtures.
