Six clubs have won the FA Cup as part of a League and Cup double, these are Preston North End (1889), Aston Villa (1897), Tottenham Hotspur F.C. (1961), Arsenal (1971, 1998, 2002), Liverpool (1986) and Manchester United (1994, 1996, 1999). Arsenal and Manchester United share the record of three doubles. Arsenal are the only club to win doubles in distinct decades, and have in fact won in three different decades.

In 1999, Manchester United added the Champions League crown to its double, an accomplishment known as The Treble.

In 2001, Liverpool did not win the league, but won the League Cup and UEFA Cup to complete a different treble. They also won the FA Charity Shield and the European Super Cup in 2001, at the start of the following season.

Leicester City hold the unfortunate record of having appeared in four FA Cup finals without ever winning the cup.

Kettering Town have scored the most goals in FA Cup history, having scored 803 goals between 1879 and 2005. (up to 12 October 2005) with Ollie Burgess scoring the 800th goal against St Albans City on 11 October 2005
