	Cup Winners' Cup Trivia
		Fiorentina won the inaugural edition of the "Cup Winners' Cup" in 1960/61 in spite of having lost the Italian Cup Final in 1960 to double winners Juventus.
		That was, by the way, the third time in succession that Anderlecht made the final of the CWC: they also won it in 1976, and in 1977 they fell to the CWC Jinx.
		If the winner of the Cup Winners' Cup didn't win its domestic league, the country in question usually got two representatives in the CWC, and this occasionally led to meeting between clubs from the same country.

	UEFA Cup Winners' Cup - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The UEFA Cup Winners' Cup was a football club competition between the winners of the European domestic cup competitions.
		During its existence, the cup was regarded as the second most important European club competition out of three; behind the UEFA Champions League and ahead of the UEFA Cup.
		The Cup Winners' Cup was eventually scrapped however, as in many new European countries the domestic cup competition was seen to be of little value compared to the prestigious, old tournaments of Western Europe, such as the FA Cup.

	Stanley Cup Winners
		The Stanley behind the Stanley Cup was Lord Stanley of Preston, the Governor General of Canada (the Queen's Representative to the Dominion of Canada), the sixth in the long regal line.
		The Cup went to a Ranger victory party at a Manhattan saloon called the Auction House, where it stopped traffic, started parades, and was drunk out of by everyone in sight until the bar was effectively down to backwash (but that probably wouldn't have stopped them).
		The Stanley Cup is insured for $75,000, but for so many, spending a summer or a day or a moment with arguably the most cherished trophy in sport is, to steal a phrase from a credit card commercial, priceless.

	The European Cup Winners Cup History and Previous Winners
		The participants in the competition were generally the winners of their domestic cup competition as well as the previous season's holders.

		Losing the cup final five years before that victory was a pretty bad time, but recently I think the worst time was when we were knocked out of Europe by Victoria Zizkov because they weren't that good a side, so it was a very disappointing result.
		Unfortunately it's not the same in the current climate but I have a lot of happy memories of travelling up to Pittodrie and spending the weekend in Aberdeen, when we used to be able to mix well with the Dons supporters.

		CSKA broke and the hapless Enakarhire made only a token challenge on Daniel Carvalho whose cross was missed by Ricardo, leaving Vagner Love with an open goal he did not miss a second time.
