Been wondering about the trophy as it's new, i.e not old like the championship one, which is the original first division (pre-premier) one.
I heard somewhere that it's a new trophy every year and is kept by the winners permanently. Someone else said we get a replica and give the original one back.
Anyone know for sure about this?

Saw on the news that it was made somewhere in Kent this year.
Even if er don't get to keep the trophy I'd imagine we'd be given a replace, or be lowed to order our own to be made. There are strict rules about the European Cup. The club is allowed to have a replica made that is, from memory, no bigger that 4/5ths of the original. Real Madrid have 9 of them in their museum/trophy room.
Sorry fir the triva, but thought it might she'd one light. I would imagine, however, that none of the clubs that win the 3rd division decide, on cost grounds, not to pay for a replica to be made.
