Penalty or not does not just add to their pain. herd fact we couldn't play any worse and they couldn't play Any better. we are now officially the most successful club in the world ??.

I think Al Ahli of Egypt are officially recognized as the most successful in the world mally.
Although most successful in glasgow will do alright with me.
{Ed001's Note - yes mate, by a big margin as well. My mate is a big Al Ahly fan and he goes on, and on, and on about it. Celtic are the most successful in UEFA.}

Nope we are the most successful in the world according to Sevco fans.
Prior to yesterday they claimed they were the most successful club in the world, as we have overtaken their combined total, using their logic, (not ours) we are now the most successful club in the world. ??.

I was being flippant and was meaning hiw a sevconian sees it ??.

The Egyptians include regional cups in their overall total which is similar to Glasgow Cups.
Al Ahly have won the most major honours in the World but I think it’s by a big margin.

* don’t think.

Buzz you're the stat guy, it's your job to find out how far behind Al Ahly we are!
16 Dec 2024 12:16:55
I'm sure I read they were on 124 trophies.

Edd, your pal is a big Al Ahly fan you know some characters bhoy, are you a secret Billionaire by any chance ?.
{Ed001's Note - I wish. I am not even a billionaire if you converted both my pennies into Iranian rials! Being a Liverpool fan, the last few years has meant I have got to know a lot of Egyptians as they stop you in the street to talk about Salah. They are obsessed with him. I have yet to meet an Egyptian that doesn't have him as their screensaver on their phone etc.}

@ed001 you can tell all the Egyptian s that you meet that the Sevco fans said Celtic are now the most successful club in the world as we overtook their combined haul. ?.
{Ed001's Note - I wouldn't even want to go there. They carry a soapbox round with them permanently to stand on when anyone mentions success in football. They feel like their club's achievements are constantly being disrespected.}

It’s hard to work out which honours are major and minor Bhoys88.
The definite major honours are 44 Egyptian League titles and 39 Egyptian Cups.
They have also won 25 Continental cups and 2 intercontinental cups.
They have also won 15 Egyptian Super cups similar to the English charity shield.
I think the 7 Sultan Hussain are regional cups to go along with 4 other regional cups and another 2 minor cups they have won.
They have also won 17 regional minor Cairo league titles.
Personally I would make it 125 honours with the other 30 being minor honours but I’m not 100% sure.
We don’t have the Super Cup which is basically a final but they don’t play a 3rd domestic cup similar to our League Cup.
In summary, I would put us second in the world and 6 behind the Egyptians.
Has anyone seen any clarity on this?

I was the same as you buzz and couldn't work out what was major and minor. Personally, I would not call the charity shield in England a major trophy but I am not saying I'm correct.

I looked at Liverpool’s major honours and they don’t count the Charity Shield as a major honour.
Al Ahyl could have as many as 45 minor honours.
