Great post!
I'm counting 1 extra trophy for most of these on wikipedia. Not sure if I've missed a thing that a lot of teams have won only 1 of that doesn't count as a major trophy. I was assuming you were removing super cups from this chart
I didn't include single-match super cups (the Charity/Community Shield, the European/UEFA Super Cup and the old Intercontinental Cup) but I did include the FIFA Club World Cup as teams need to win more than one game to be champions. I also didn't include the old Intertoto Cup.
I hope you have counted the prestigious Bangkok Centenary Cup in these tallys!
Why no Europa league?
Yeah single games would count as minor trophies so I think your process is correct
Swindon Town has an Anglo-Italian Cup... More International titles than Wednesday
Fucking Inter Cities Fair Shit Cup Fuck preventing Swindon from having the same amount as Arsenal
Did the midlands really need more than one section
Yes? West and East Midlands are almost always divided and are quite different
I wouldn't count the CWC as a major honour tbh. We're still top without it, but yeah.
Yeah I'd agree. It's something you don't even hear about unless someone from England is in it and even then it's usually just about fixture difficulties. Definitely not a major honour in my mind.
I do agree, it's one of those trophies that teams use to pump the numbers.
But if that counts then so does the UEFA Super Cup.
And then the Charity/Community Shield might as well count too.
We’re coming for you Nottingham Forest..
Swansea would be the club for Wales, no? 3 League Cups.
I always love how Yorkshire whets it’s own section
