Is it the Voyageurs Cup, the Supporters' Shield and the MLS Cup?
Is it the Voyageurs Cup, the Supporters' Shield and the MLS Cup?
sounds about right.... you could throw in the CL if you wanna get classy!
Let's get into the playoffs before we start dreaming about this
A treble for TFC would be MLS Cup, Supporter's Shield, and CONCACAF Champions League title (as this would imply winning the Canadian Championship/Voyageurs Cup)
....A treble would be a year where we win three things...
shouldn't we call it the Triple?
like the mighty trillium?????
screw the treble!
Let's go for a quadle!
I guess our Treble would automatically be a Quadruple. We would have won the Supporter's Shield, The MLS Cup, The Champions League and by extension the Voyageurs Cup. Perhaps in the future, more than one Canadian team will be able to qualify for the Champions League and then the Quadruple will be a true Quadruple and not implied.
For the Treble though, will a team have to win the 2008 MLS Cup and Supporters Shield and then win the 2008-2009 Champions League? So, they wouldn't know they won the Treble until well into the next season?
treble - carolina challange cup, trillium cup, carlsberg cup
c'mon you Reds!
What about the SUPERLIGA? (Anyone else hear that with some Tim Lovejoy-type pronounciation?)
WTF's a Treble? You mean the knob to adjust your audio system, right?
Treble = Triple in the UK.
It's not a football term, it's just an English way of saying triple.
Most commentators in the UK will use the term treble to describe a 3 trophy season for a club. Just like winning two trophies would be called a double.
On tv ads in the UK they will say "Call treble eight 486 290" etc. for a phone number.
It kinda cracks me up to hear people refer to a TFC treble. Same as when people say Deb You instead of Day byou (debut)
What?? you mean it's not de but
I don't know about that. There's quite a lengthy wikipedia article on The Treble. It's an interesting read:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_treble
The first line specifically calls it a Football term.
your link is for "The Treble" It's not the word Treble it's about the term "The Treble"
Not sure why I can't make the text smaller here: Sorry about that.

Haha, no worries my friend. I was trying to correct you on something that you didn't actually say. I have a bad cold and am hopped up on meds. I'm not thinking coherently. haha.
I believe it's having sex, eating a sandwich and watching tv at the same time
