}}{{For|the Trinidadian cricket competition referred to as the Texaco Cup|Beaumont Cup}}

The Texaco Cup, (the sponsored name of the International League Board Competition), was an association football competition involving sides from England, Scotland and Ireland[1] that had not qualified for European competitions.[2]

It was one of the first football competitions to receive sponsorship, taking the name of American petroleum company Texaco for £100,000, and was instituted to help promote Texaco's recent purchase of the Regent filling station chain.[3] Irish and Northern Irish clubs withdrew from the competition after 1971–72 due to political pressure,[4] competing in a separate Texaco (All-Ireland) Cup in 1973–74 and 1974–75.[5]

Crowds in the competition fell after the first few seasons,[6] and it became the Anglo-Scottish Cup from 1975–76 after Texaco's sponsorship ended.[7]

Format

For the first four seasons it was played as a straight knockout tournament, with sixteen clubs entered, all ties being two-legged. For the final season of the competition, 16 English clubs played in groups before being joined in the knockout stages by four Scottish sides.[8]
