 Turkish Leagues and Clubs
The team’s black and white striped jerseys — which, along with the team’s crest, has led to the nickname The Black Eagles — have been seen in European competition quite a bit in recent years, including a run to the quarterfinals of the 2002-03 UEFA Cup.
One accomplishment stands above all else, though: the 2000 UEFA Cup, which Galatasaray won without losing a single game in the tournament.
As with most other leagues worldwide, each team plays the others home and away, with the season running from early August to mid-May. The top two teams qualify directly for the Champions League, and the third-place finisher goes to the UEFA Cup.

The Scottish League Cup finals in the last five seasons

 Jim Jefferies Comments 2002-03
But for the runners-up to take the final UEFA Cup spot ahead of a team who has done well over 38 games is not right.
Football up here is not as bad as what it's being made out to be by some of the people down there.
It was obviously done in good fun because of the situation and at the Scottish sports writers' dinner on Sunday there were brown envelopes flying about and drinks being bought for me and (Dunfermline boss) Jimmy Calderwood.

Scorer of the fastest ever FA Cup final goal after 43 seconds against Middlesbrough four years ago, the Italian has been forced to retire after breaking his leg in a UEFA Cup game last season.
With Arsenal on the brink of replacing Manchester United as Premier League champion and Chelsea seeking to recapture the form that made it Cup Winners Cup titlist four years ago, it should be a high-quality game at the Millennium Stadium.
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger, who guided the team to the league and FA Cup double in 1998, is aware of the danger.

Italy improved on that in 2002/03, fielding 3 semifinalists in the Champions League and one in the UEFA Cup.
The record for most eliminations of European trophy holders from the competition in the following season is held by Real Madrid with 8 such cases: on 7 occasions they eliminated the holders from the Champions' Cup, and on 3 occasions those of the UEFA Cup (twice in the Champions' Cup tournament).
By the way, in the first season after the Cup Winners' Cup had been abolished, 1999/00, Italy failed to field a single team in the UEFA Cup quarterfinals (although 4 Italian teams reached the 1/8 finals).

This version differs from the UEFA one as follows: i) it is one year ahead of UEFA (the UEFA coefficients for 2003/04 do not take account of the 2002/03 season); ii) it is weighted so that results from recent seasons are worth more points.
Importance of the game (more points are awarded for Champions League and UEFA Cup games and at the latter stages of all cup competitions).

Blackburn's progress under Souness continued in 2002-03 when they finished sixth to qualify for the UEFA Cup for the second season running, but Souness's job was put on the line by a disappointing 15th-place finish in 2003-04.
Early exits from the UEFA Cup, F.A Cup and League Cup were frustrating for Blackburn in 1994-95, but turned out for the best as they often had games in hand over Manchester United in the challenge for the Premiership title.
The teams were drawn against each other in the fourth round of the Lancashire Cup, and the clubs refused to agree on a date for the match.

Ono helped Feyenoord to the UEFA Cup championship in his first year with the club, and established himself as one of the club's top players.
Though he had a less impressive year in 2002-03, this was partly due to nagging injuries and the physical toll of playing football without a break for over two an a half year.
Unfortunately, Ono suffered a serious knee injury in an Olympic qualifying match in late 1999, and was sidelined for almost a full year before he returned close to his former peak during the Confederations Cup matches in 2001.
