He can revel in the glory of those 2 'domestic' trophies all he wants. 1 is and always has been a pre season game. Half these cunts probably dont know the thing didnt used to be played at Wembley and was played on a club ground for most of its 'charity' shield existence.

[Barrington Womble]

Everyone who wins the shield says it's a trophy and everyone who loses it says it's a friendly. It's never been any other way. I don't know why anyone would get their knickers in a twist because a bunch of shithouse mancs are trying to claim some reflective glory off an ex-member of staff in a game against us and they fucking hate us and make no secret about it. Fuck them, who cares.

Not getting my knickers in a twist at all, think it's funny as fuck, Everton esque.

[Stickman]

They’ve just made an arse of themselves in Europe (again) so if it makes them feel better in themselves then good for them

The oil cheats can do one...but to be fair to Arsenal they have in my opinion as much right to milk this win as we did the european super cup last season...and we did milk it.

 

No difference between two 'trophies' in my book.

The difference is you can win the Community Shield  by finishing second in the league these days. While you have to win something to win the Supercup, and not just something but either the CL or the EL.

 

Both are glorified friendlies, but the Supercup still means a little bit more.

I'm sure we did once. We probably just didn't know how to mark the shared ones on a wall. In fact houllier used to talk about his 5 cups in a year.

I get that but both are pretty meaningless to me - as you say glorified friendlies.

Speculative on your first point, and irrelevant on your second. 

 

If Houllier (especially minus any direct quotes) is your only defence, then I'm happy to rest my case.

[aws]

It's a pre-season friendly which is not counted as a competitive game even if there is a trophy. Six subs, yellow and red cards don't carry over into the proper season, goals don't count for a player's career record etc.  I don't think any of these apply to the Super Cup which is ranked as a competitive game and is far more prestigious which is why it appears on our trophy wall. 

Nice to win the Shield but more of a contented smile than full -blown celebration.

at the time he didn't stop going on about his 5 trophies and I didn't notice too much anyone trying to stop him, although he was widely ridiculed by bloos.

Who cares?

[Section_31]

All trophies are worth winning but if we'd have won it yesterday would anyone be waking up with a sore head today?

 

Saying that it's not nice to lose and after a storming season you ideally want to dole out some early rough justice in case anyone gets any ideas and sniffs blood.
