== FYI: [[:1906 Sheriff of London Charity Shield]] Interesting correspondence with Liverpool FC. ==
I emailed Liverpool a while back why they didn't include the honour on https://www.liverpoolfc.com/history/honours and I got a response. ---- Thank you for your patience. I have been advised the below by our Museum Curator: For many years, the 1906 Sheriff of London Charity Shield was included on our honours list and even featured on the front of the matchday programme for a spell in the 1930s. Why that changed, I honestly don’t know – my guess is that because it was a fixture played against a non-league team it wasn’t deemed a ‘major’ trophy - but having done research into this I am aware of how prestigious it was at the time and that it was the forerunner to the FA Charity/Community Shield and agree, therefore, that it should be referenced. I will speak with the relevant people within the club and look to get this reinstated. I hope this helps, if there is anything else we can help with, please let us know.
Kind regards, ---- So it looks like they will change the number from 16 back to 17 on their own website which would also match [[:List of football clubs in England by competitive honours won]]. Regards [[User:Govvy|Govvy]] ([[User talk:Govvy|talk]]) 10:14, 29 April 2026 (UTC)
