Manchester City Football Club is an
English Premier League football club based in Manchester. Founded in 1880 as St. Mark's (West Gorton), they
became Ardwick Association Football
Club in 1887 and Manchester City
in 1894. The club has played at the City of Manchester Stadium since 2003,
having played at Maine Road from 1923. The club's most successful period was in
the late 1960s and early 1970s when they won the League Championship, FA Cup, League
Cup and European Cup Winners' Cup under the management team of Joe Mercer and Malcolm
Allison.
After losing the 1981 FA Cup Final, the club went
through a period of decline, culminating in relegation to the third tier of English
football for the first time in their history in 1998. In August 2008, the club
was purchased by Abu Dhabi United Group, resulting in the club becoming one of
the richest in world football. In 2011, Manchester City qualified for the Champions
League and won the FA Cup. In 2012, the club won the Premier League, their
first league title for forty-four years.
For the 2011–12 seasons, City made a number of
high profile signings, including Gaël Clichy, Stefan Savić, Sergio Agüero, Samir
Nasri and Owen Hargreaves. City started the season well, and was five points
clear at the top of the Premier League after a 6–1 victory over Manchester
United in October. Poor form in the middle of the season saw City out of the Champions
League and the Europa League, and they fell eight points behind United for the
league lead with six matches remaining.
Manchester United Football Club is an English professional football club based in Old
Trafford, Greater Manchester. The club was founded as Newton Heath LYR F.C. in

United in 1902. Manchester United currently play in the Premier League, the top
tier of English football. They have not been out of the top tier since 1975,
and they have never been lower than the second tier.
The club currently holds the record for the most FA
Cup triumphs with 11, the most Premier League titles with 12, and the highest
number of English top-flight titles with 19. The club's record appearance maker
is Ryan Giggs, who has made more than 900 appearances since his debut in 1991,
