Talk:The Quadruple

message: What is it exactly?
I'm not sure about referencing this as a Trophy in comparision with legitimate competitions. If a reference could be found describing why Celtic won it and what it actually is I'd be happy to leave it up.Neiljbradley 11:02, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Alfredo DiStefano Trophy

message: I helped write part of the original but in hindsight I don't think it's really needed.  Yes a near quadruple is impressive.  But the three teams who could be listed are all ready listed for their near trebles.  After all, their near trebles were a lot more interesting.  ManU won the Treble but missed the quad when they lost in the League Cup quarter-finals.  Chelsea won the Cup and League Cup but missed the league by a good 8 points and only made it to the Champions League Semi-finals.  And Bayern Munich actually came the closest; they won the Bundesliga and the second cup in Germany, but lost in the finals of both the German Cup and the Champions League.  Anyway, my point is that in this case, I don't think we should list the near quadruples.  But before I delete, I wanted to get some feedback.  Anyone?   Nygoodliving 02:48, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Near Quadruples

message: If you want it in the article, please justify it being in there.  Quad means 4 and the article is talking about winning trophies, the Copa America is one trophy, however often you win it. Kie (talk) 12:45, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: International Quadruple

message: I've removed the following text
Porto FC also won the quadruple in the 2003/2004 season winning:
:*The Portuguese Liga
:*The Portuguese Cup
:*The Portuguese SuperCup Cândido de Oliveira
:*The UEFA Champions League
Firstly porto did not win the 2004 Portuguese cup. Secondly the SuperCup Cândido de Oliveira is the equivalent of the community shield. Now admittedly Portugal doesn't have a second cup competition therefore making a quadruple like celtic's impossible but nevertheless I don't think the text should remain.

thread_title: Porto "Quadruple"

message: "At present - in the majority of leagues - The Quadruple is the ultimate achievement, consisting of every major top tier trophy a club can win in a single season. Yet it remains a practical impossibility in some countries, such as Spain and Italy, where there is only one major domestic cup competition."
The majority of leagues don't have four major trophies available, so it's hardly an achievement if it's outright impossible.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.145.107.222 (talk) 21:05, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Third paragraph 

message: The part about their Community Shield win needs removed. At least celtc's Glasgow Cup wasn't a one match trophy.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.158.97.223 (talk) 02:40, 3 September 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Arsenal Ladies 

message: This is NOT a major competition. It takes about a week to play and gets practically no coverage outside of countries that have clubs participating. The Emritates Cup or Amsterdam Tournament may as well be added.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.156.230.168 (talk) 18:48, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, yes, we all have our own point of view. No newspapers actually seem to focus entirely on what "The Quadruple" means or could mean so we continue down this unenlightened path of original research.

thread_title:  Club World Cup 

message: I propose this be merged with the Quadruple, since both are rather short articles and could easily be merged into one coherent article defining the different achievements in football. This would also open op for the inclusion of the sextuple, which was deleted rather inconsistently.Sandman888 (talk) 15:48, 23 February 2010 (UTC)
