Inspired by a post of the same name on BigSoccer (for USA's MLS):
Now that SAFFC has won 2 straight league titles, they will surely hope for a 3rd successive win next season, something no teams has ever done before.
(97-98 champs SAFFC themselves were denied by Home in 1999, while 04-05 champs Tampines were pipped by SAFFC in 2006)
The question: which is a greater achievement? Winning 3 league (or cup) titles in a row or winning 3 different trophies (the Treble) in the same year?
Another question is: what consitute a Treble? Domestically it would mean SingTel League Cup + S.League + Singapore Cup. If international tournaments are considered, it would be S.League + Singapore Cup + AFC Cup or ASEAN Clubs C'ship (though it doesn't happen every year).
(Of course it would be even more impressive if the same team manage to win all 4, or even 5! )
What's your take?
