NEWTON HEATH / MANCHESTER UNITED Football trophy dated 1886 and inscribed "Newton Heath C & F C 1886". This probable silver plate trophy on a wooden base details a football above a playing pitch and has a separate lid which is adorned with a footballer with a ball at his feet.. The pitch has a metal "rope-style" boundary which is partly missing and the other side of the wooden base has the makers mark which research by the vendor indicates to be that of Henry Bourne of Birmingham. The ball is suspended on a four legged tower above the pitch and whilst it is not known what the trophy is for, it should be noted that Newton Heath won the Manchester Cup in 1886 . This is not that trophy but we would suggest that it is possible that this trophy may commemorate the winning of that trophy. Newton Heath also held annual Sports days and trophies were awarded for the winning of the various contests, but it is thought that this trophy is more likely to be a Club trophy of some sort. Newton Heath were formed in 1878m and became Manchester United in 1902 after financial problems,, it would be ironic if United went back to being called Newton Heath in view of many fans adopting their colours in view of somewhat more recent, unexpected, financial problems. Newton Heath became members of the Football League in 1892. The trophy including the base and the lid is 13 " ( 34cm ) tall and 7" (17cm) long, 4.5 " (12cm) wide, each measurement being at the highest/longest/widest points.. Obviously very rare and part of the long history of this famous Club. Generally good

I must admit that I should be curious to see what would happen in Palestine. The efforts to confuse thought seem to be more strenuous than ever. It is difficult to blame people for being as foolish as they seem...’ together with a copy of Domville’s book ‘From Admiral to Cabin Boy’
