Manchester United were founded as Newton Heath LYR Football Club in 1878 by a group of railway workers. They were founding members of a league called The Combination in 1888 for its only year of existence before joining the Football Alliance, which in turn merged with the Football League in 1892.
In 1902, the club hit financial difficulties and four local businessman invested £500 each to keep it afloat, subsequently renaming the team Manchester United on April 24 of that year. Having been relegated to the Second Division in 1894, United were promoted in 1906 and won the First Division for the first time in 1908. They won another in 1911 before the manager, Ernest Mangnall, left for Manchester City - he remains to this day the only man to have ever managed both clubs.
