Double is winning two competitions in the same year (for instance, a domestic league title and a cup competition)

Triple/Treble is winning three competitions in the same year (league, cup, Champions League)

(ETA: To clarify, most first division teams play in at least three competitions during the year, all going on at the same time. So you could have a cup match on Wednesday, league game on Saturday and a Champions/Europa league match next Tuesday)

Normally double refers to winning the League title and the premier cup competition in the same year. Treble refers to winning those two as well as the CL.

Any other combinations such as Chelsea winning the cup double in '12, FA and CL, or Pool winning the cup treble in '05, FA/CL/League Cup, usually get some additional modifiers to differentiate them from traditional doubles and trebles
