After English teams European Ban in 85 the Football League decided to introduce a new competition for teams that qualified for Europe so that teams could be financially reimbursed, the tournament was a disaster & took over a year to complete.

What was the Cup they were playing for called? Name the 6 participating teams & who won the Final?

It was the Football League Super Cup, we got beat by Everton in the semis, so would say they won it, or maybe Liverpool who were the dominant club at the time.
I remember being one of only about 10k at most fans there for a dreadful 0-0 draw, don't remember much about second leg but obviously they beat us.

It was the Football League Super Cup but the Super Cup had a sponsor & that's the name the Cup was called.. It was Everton in the Final over 2legs & they lost 7-2 on agg
