Alec Lindsay's silver miniature replica of the 1974 F.A. Charity Shield, inscribed FOOTBALL ASSOCIATION, CHARITY SHIELD, the octagonal black bakelite backboard inscribed LEEDS UNITED V LIVERPOOL, WEMBLEY, 10TH AUGUST 1974, WINNERS, easel support Bill Shankly led the Liverpool team out onto the pitch for the very last time in the 1974 Charity Shield. Bob Paisley was to take over for the start of the League campaign. Liverpool won the Charity Shield after a penalty shoot out following a 1-1 draw. Alec Lindsay scored his penalty. Regrettably, however, the match is remembered for a notorious punch up between Billy Bremner and Kevin Keegan, their sending offs and their display of disapproval of the decision by removing their shirts. All in front of a TV audience as this was the first Charity Shield to be broadcast.
