This is something as a brain dead fan I just accepted. Apparently the green and gold "Newton Heath" stuff came about in 1993 by Umbro to sell shirts. There's no evidence of us ever wearing green and gold.
The green and gold is commercial bollocks, lads.

This is old news, isn’t it?
Interesting. Any evidence other than black-and-white photos that were recently colorized?
Red and White, till the club ain't shite
Yeah. A good 130 years, I'd say.
So we were Feyenoord
Green and Gold till more shirts are sold.
There's no evidence of us ever wearing green and gold.
Here are some pictures of us wearing green and gold.

I thought this was well known?
Ya I thought I was the only one confused. Is the title meant to be 'there is no evidence of us ever wearing half and half green and gold' ?
Green and Gold till you do as you’re told.
If you all know so much about Manchester United then what was the first blade of grass planted on the Old Trafford pitch?
They literally wore a green and gold shirt in 1895. Just not a half/half one. I have no idea what this thread is or the tweet
Yeah it’s a bad title and op. The green and gold half and half Umbro kit was a mix of the Newton Heath red and white half and half kit and the green and gold United kits.
Exactly this.
Mick Hucknall is rarely wrong
Ya, fair enough. But on that point, who cares....
Pedants, like myself. Would rather a green and gold striped kit than a half and half if we were to get one
Yeah but all proceeds still go into the Pheonix Fund..... right?
That would be nice. I quite liked the 93/94 too I must say
Imagine if you could swap our current 2023 team with the 1890 one. Which side on average would live longest? Who out of our current team would thrive the most, having been sent back 133 years?
Ah the phoenix fund, good times.
Wonder what happened to it, is there enough to buy us a striker?
White and Red until the Glazers are....
dead?
2 colors that look horrible together tbh. All those mock green and gold kits are brutal
Not green and gold. It was polkadot.
