The 2011–12 Football League Cup, known as the Carling Cup due to the competition's sponsorship by lager brand Carling, is the 52nd season of the Football League Cup, a knock-out competition for England's top 92 football clubs. Birmingham City are the defending champions, having beaten Arsenal 2–1 in last season's Final.

Background

Broadcasting rights

The broadcasting rights for the 2011-12 Cup in the United Kingdom are shared between Sky Sports and the BBC. Sky Sports have rights to broadcast two live matches from each round while the BBC will show match highlights online and on a special League Cup highlights show which will broadcast in the late evening on BBC One.[1]

The BBC will show two legs of the semi-final fixtures, which will most likely be broadcast on BBC Two and Sky Sports will broadcast the remaining two legs.[2] Both BBC and Sky Sports will simulcast the final which will be at Wembley on the 26 February 2012.

Fixtures

Times up to and including the Fourth Round are BST (UTC+1). Times from the quarter-finals onwards are GMT (UTC±0).

Preliminary Round

Due to Birmingham City having a bye to the Third Round following qualification to the Europa League, newly promoted AFC Wimbledon and Crawley Town played each other in a Preliminary Round, with Crawley Town having home advantage following a draw on 13 June. This was the first need for a Preliminary Round since the 2002–03 season.

First Round

The draw for the First Round took place on 16 June 2011 at 10:00 BST. The First Round took place in the week commencing 8 August 2011.

The ties at Bristol City and Bristol Rovers were called off later after the disorder spread across England.[3][4][5][6][7]
