Ahead of the Bristol Street Motors Trophy semi-finals, we take a look at the 2023/24 competition so far.
Who won the competition last season?
Bolton won the Papa Johns Trophy – as it was called before the rebrand – for the second time back in April, with a 4-0 win over Plymouth in front of a crowd of just under 80,000 at Wembley. It was the biggest winning margin in any final since the competition was founded in 1981.

The semi-finals and the final will be broadcast live on Sky Sports Football.
However, in May, Sky Sports agreed a new five-year deal to show over 1,000 matches per season in the Sky Bet EFL meaning, from the 2024/25 season onwards, for the first time ever, fans will be able to watch every match from the competition live.
