    Not wanting to piss on West Ham's parade....

    Posted by DynamoKev on 8/6/2023, 9:05:03

    but is winning a competition that didn't exist until a couple of years ago really a "major trophy"?? Don't get me wrong, I'd be delighted of we won it (and I'm sure many elsewhere would feel the same about their clubs), but that does seem to be stretching it a bit!

      Yeh, it’s no Johnstones Paint Trophy! Piss off, win a Cup, celebrate it, regardless of how ‘new’ it is

        Definitely a major trophy.

        However, I bet most West Ham fans would swap it for the FA Cup, or maybe even a League Cup.*

        (*League Cup in it's current form. When we won it it had way more prestige due to the European ban.)

            I class it as a major trophy, I despise west ham but to me it's the equivalent of the old cup winners cup, plus they played 14 games to win it.

              I think it's fair enough. It's not at the level of the old Cup Winners Cup, but it's far superior to the Intertoto. And it gives them another season in Europe.

                Winning the prize for being the best team that finished 6th in their league isn’t something I’d get excited about.

                  We got rather excited for winning a prize for finishing 24th. Had we been in their position last night I doubt we'd be clapping politely at full time and trudge off home for a cocoa.

                  So you wouldn't celebrate if we were in their shoes? Bollox.

                    It used to be three “major” European trophies.

                    European Cup
                    UEFA Cup
                    UEFA Cup Winners Cup

                    With that in mind, I’d say what they won should still be classed as a “major” European trophy.

                      European Cup Winners Cup actually

                        Agreed

                          Yep, agreed

                          3 major domestic trophies, 3 major European trophies. Nice and symmetrical for my tiny, OCD-lite brain

                          I get where the OP is coming from but I'm sure the League Cup was classed as a major trophy as soon as it was launched in the 60s
