Barrow players bizarrely offered bigger bonus if they LOSE to Chelsea than if they win Carabao Cup clash
According to The Telegraph, Barrow players have been handed a greater financial incentive to lose the third-round tie than to pull off an upset victory, which comes just before the two clubs' match on September 24.
Barrow's bonus structure technically does not violate any regulations, but the English Football League (EFL) is reportedly irritated by it and expects the club to explain themselves because this is the first time a club has provided a higher prize for losing a match than for winning one.
