This is an incomplete list of football clubs that have won four or more trophies in a single season.
In a football season, clubs typically compete in many domestic competitions, such as a league and one or more cup competitions, as well as sometimes in continental competitions. Winning multiple competitions is seen as a particularly significant achievement. Doubles and trebles are usually long-remembered achievements, but do occur with some level of frequency, [1] whereas winning four or more trophies in one season is much rarer. In the 2010s, the terms quadruple, quintuple, and sextuple have sometimes been used to refer to winning four, five, and six trophies in a single season. [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7]
This list is limited to clubs playing in the top division of their league system.

Football in Scotland has been dominated by two clubs, Celtic and Rangers, both based in Glasgow and collectively known as the Old Firm due to the mutual economic benefits of the public interest in their longstanding rivalry, since the introduction of a national league system in 1890. While many of the league contests have been closely fought between the pair and have occasionally involved other clubs, periods of one-team dominance have occurred, most significantly three periods of nine championship wins in succession since the 1970s which has led to the term "Nine in a row" becoming a commonly-used phrase, and a topic which has drawn much attention.
