Foundation of a Legend

The club we know today as Manchester United was founded in 1902 after their predecessors, Newton Heath, folded.Although this is the case it's common practice to give the date of United's foundation as 1878 when the dining roomcommitee met at the carriage and waggon works of the Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway Company and formed Newton Heath LYR - thank god they did.
