Newton Heath 1892 Retro Football Shirt

THE BADGE ON THIS SHIRT IS A REGISTERED TRADEMARK ®. In the late nineteenth century Manchester United were a very unremarkable club indeed. They were formed by railway workers, they were originally known as Newton Heath LYR (the suffix stood for Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway) and purchased a uniform strip of jerseys in green and gold, the colours of the parent company. The club’s reputation grew and in 1889, the Heathens had joined the Football Alliance, formed as rivals to the Football League.
