First appearance: 1937 · Central European Cup (Mitropa Cup)
How these figures are counted
Secondary competitions are the Mitropa Cup, Balkans Cup and all Intertoto Cup editions, including UEFA editions. UEFA / non-UEFA labels still describe the organising body.
A season is counted once by its starting year, even when the club switches competitions. Calendar-year editions use their entry year. Each club in one competition in one season is a separate competition entry.
Qualifications follow the recorded whole-round outcomes: knockout ties, groups and league phases count once when progression is recorded. Switching competitions creates another competition entry; it does not add an extra qualification to the recorded round outcome. Finals and group-format titles are recorded as achievements instead.
Group / unique group appearances combine traditional small groups with the single league table introduced in 2024/25. Both count once per campaign phase. In secondary competitions, a group may simply be the tournament format.
Spring appearances follow the owner-confirmed stage tables. A marked stage counts as played, whether the club advanced or was eliminated. The Principal Competitions tile combines Round of 32 / play-offs and Round of 16 appearances as “Other”; a campaign reaching both contributes two stage appearances. Detailed match records retain each round’s full name. Round of 32 includes knockout phase play-offs. For other campaigns, a whole round must fall in January–June of one calendar year; rounds carried over from the preceding year are excluded. Steaua’s December 1986 Intercontinental final is an explicit exception. Both the 1986 Super Cup and Intercontinental final are attributed to the 1985/86 qualifying season, with actual match dates preserved.
W/D/L and goals include awarded scores. Match records below exclude awards. All figures describe the supplied archive.
