Most trophies won as league champions - where we stand

[Mayor Farnum]

Do you lot consider charity shields as trophies?

Obviously it's not considered a major trophy but you still have to qualify to play in it by either winning the league or the FA cup and then play a team over 90 mins for a prize.

For me it should be considered.

The reason I say this is because when I see these trophy tables it shows us having won 15 major honours, which is correct, 9 titles, 5 FA cups and the cup winners cup.

But we have won 9 charity shields which should see us on 24 really

Just wondered if others counted charity shields or not.

Used to count a lot in the seventies when liverpool used to win it, but not since. In fact the first I remember of it was when Howard Kendall referred to it as, "A pre-season game and a chance to get fit."

Never really counted.

Palace was the Zenith Data Systems Cup, was the Simod Cup the year before i think

Southall refusing to go up the Wembley steps to collect his losers medal still makes me laugh

Yep, just over 50,000 at Wembley for the final, pretty sure we only had only about 10,000, that's how arsed we was about it

And the ScreenSports SuperCup, beaten over 2 legs by Liverpool in the final

About 20,000-25,000 for Anfield and Goodison!

What about the Liverpool floodlight challenge cup ? It was started when they were in the 2nd division to keep the derby going .If I remember right!

Villa though!

[TheRam]

City will surpass us this season and Chelsea in the next few I imagine.

Won’t be long before nine league titles and five FA cups doesn’t seem that impressive

It doesn't now to be honest. Nobody cares except us, and most of us probably don't.

[GLewis]

League titles still more impressive than league cups or whatever.

[GLewis]

Villa though!

Think Villa have only 1 league and 1 FA cup post ww2.

EC as well obviously but as with everyone bar us, they’ve a handful of league cups.

[BlueForYou]

I still have it in my head -

1986 European Cup winners: Everton FC

Final: beat Barcelona 2-0 (Lineker, Mountfield)
