Manchester United, first began wearing red in 1928. Prior to that they wore varying different coloured strips, from their newton heath days (green and yellow) to the 1909 cup final, where they wore a white shirt with a red chevron on the chest.
Newton Heath was the original name and the club was becoming broke. A new invester came in and helped keep them afloat.
It was decided at one of the early board meetings that the club required a change of name to reflect the fresh start they had been afforded. Manchester Central and Manchester Celticwere among the names suggested, before Louis Rocca, a young immigrant from Italy, said "Gentlemen, why don't we call ourselves Manchester United?"
They are called the red devils because their main color is red and they are so good and dominate so many teams that they are hated like devils By the other teams. So there you have it the red devils.
Manchester United was founded as Newton Heath LYR FC in 1878. In 1902 the club ran into financial difficulties and was about to fold, when local brewery owner John Henry Davies took over the club. Davies made two conditions for paying the club's debts - that they change their name to Manchester United, and that they play in red, white and black (instead of Newton Heath's green and gold).
Because we were green and yellow but then the glazer's bought the club and prefered the colour red so they changed to red. I preferd green and gold!
