Javhar's All Time European Club Rankings

These take into  account not only the European cups  won, but also the
number of  finals, semifinals, and quarterfinals  reached.  Points are
awarded as follows:

                         CL    CWC    UC
                        (ECI) (ECII)
Cup winner               54     27    27
Losing finalist          18      9     9
Losing semifinalist       6      3     3
Losing quarterfinalst     2      1     1

In other  words: every round reached  is worth three times  as much as
the previous  round; Cup Winners' Cup  and UEFA Cup  have equal worth,
Champions League is worth twice as much.

Why do I have to include losing finalists, semifinalists, and quarter-
finalists? Because  it makes  the list more  reliable and  stable (for
example, compare  Benfica and Nottingham Forest). Why  don't I include
all the  other rounds? Because it's  too much work  and doesn't affect
the top  50 anyway.   Why are  those points chosen  the way  they are?
Because it  looked about right  to me; winning  a cup should  be worth
slightly more than reaching the final twice.  Don't worry: If I change
the weights, the rankings near the top hardly change.

Here are ALL the clubs, up  to and including the 2003/04 season.  This
is a long list. Country rankings follow below.

Notes:

* No longer existing countries are listed, but not ranked.

* Points for Germany include  points scored by West German teams until
  1992.  It does  not include points scored by  East German teams, but
  it *would* include  points scored by teams from  former East Germany
  since 1992, had they actually scored any.

* For countries that have split  up: points scored by teams before the
  split-up are  included in the former country's  score, points scored
  by  those same  teams after  the split-up  are included  in  the new
  countries' scores.

The reason is  that teams from countries that have  now split up might
have violated UEFA's foreigners rule  if they had represented what now
is  their new  country.  Eg,  teams  from the  current Czech  Republic
during  the years  when they  were representing  Czecho-Slovakia might
have included too  many Slovaks.  Therefore I didn't  carry over those
points. The  reverse applies  in the case  of West Germany.  Those who
don't agree  can still include the  points scored by  teams before the
split-up according to the following distributions:

Soviet Union (until 1991):
      Ukraine          UKR    -  2  -    -  2  -    2  2  -    6  4  -     76
      Russia           RUS    -  -  -    -  1  -    1  4  -    3  9  2     35
      Georgia          GEO    -  1  -    -  1  -    -  2  -    -  2  -     30

Czecho-Slovakia (until 1993):
      Czech Republic   CZE    -  -  -    -  -  -    1  3  2    8  5  7     42
      Slovakia         SVK    -  1  -    -  1  -    1  1  -    3  3  -     39

Yugoslavia (until 1992):
      Serbia/Monten.   SMN    1  -  -    2  -  1    4  2  4   11  5  7    128
      Croatia          CRO    -  -  1    -  -  2    -  2  3    3  5  4     55
      Bosnia/Herzeg.   BIH    -  -  -    -  -  -    -  -  1    -  -  2      4

For what it's worth.
