Newton Heath Green & Gold Shield Badge

SKU: 881
£4.00

This pin badge features the green and gold shield, a tribute to the club's original identity as Newton Heath LYR Football Club, founded in 1878 by railway workers.

The iconic colours represent the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway, the company that financed the team during its formative years before it was renamed Manchester United in 1902.

Included in the design are the ship in full sail, symbolising Manchester's rich history of international trade, and three diagonal stripes, which traditionally represent the city's three main rivers: the Irwell, the Irk, and the Medlock.

In modern fan culture, these green and gold items are frequently used as symbols of protest and heritage, reflecting a commitment to the club’s founding values.

This particular shield-style badge remains a popular collector's piece for supporters who wish to celebrate the deep historical roots of the club.
