I've been told that Brentford won it and that Southampton and Oxford won the smaller divisional prizes.
That's not what Southampton think -

Saints are celebrating a boost to next season's promotion push after winning £250,000 from Coca-Cola.
The club have got the cash from a campaign run by the Championship sponsors over the past few months.
Fans were invited to vote for their club and the more votes they received, the great the chance of winning.
Saints supporters backed the campaign in their thousands and today got their reward when they were nominated to receive a quarter of a million which has to be be spent on player.
It is the second year that Coca-Cola have run the promotion with Brighton winning it last year and buying striker Colin Kazim-Richards.
Now Saints have to decide whether to buy a player for £250,000 or put the money towards a more expensive signing.
Boss George Burley said: "It is fantastic news and I am absolutely delighted.
"It is too early to say who we might think of buying but it is certainly going to help us.
"We have lots of players in mind for next season and this cash might enable us to bring in one more.
"It is a great promotion by Coke and one which has captured the imagination of the fans - and I am thrilled that we have won the money.
"I will enjoy sitting down and thinking about how we might spend it."
The competition rules state that the cash has to be used to buy a player and not for any other purpose so Saints will be guaranteed a Coca-Cola Kid next season.
Saints chairman Rupert Lowe said: "It is a real boost and just adds to the feelgood factor around the club at the moment.
"It is another ray of light after a couple of dark years and we are now in very good shape for next season.
"I really feel quite optimistic. This money is a real bonus and will help our promotion campaign.
"It is still to early to say how we will spend the money. First we have to study the rules and then decide who to bring in."
Chantelle Legg, the winning Saints fan plucked from the thousands who voted for the club, will receive £10,000 from Coca-Cola.
And Lowe has already given her a season ticket by way of extra thanks and he will invite her to be a boardroom guest next season to watch "her" player in action.
