In 1971 Arsenal won the double and but played a friendly instead and the community shield was between Leicester (division 2 champions) and Liverpool (FA Cup runners up)

In 1972 the league and FA Cup winners couldn't be bothered so they invited random [HASHTAG]#nomarks[/HASHTAG] to play instead

The 1971 game was played at Filbert Street ... I was there ... we won 1-0 Steve Whitworth scoring a rare goal ...

So in it's entire 100 year history the Charity / Community Shield has only been played once because the Champions couldn't be arsed? ... cool <cheers>
 
Norwich did really well to protect their goal at the end there.

That clearance off the line was top dollar
