Both teams feature the ships, which is an emblem of Manchester, England and a tribute to the opening of the city\u0027s ship canal in 1894.
Simon Hattenstone, the author of the story, wrote: “It is not enough to say that slavery had been abandoned in Britain by the time the image was introduced into the coat of arms.”
“People are rightly asking questions about the slave trade, but this shouldn’t be one of them. The badge is about the Manchester Ship Canal and not slaves. To link the badge and the slave trade is so over the top,” said Jamie Parkhouse. Manchester City and Manchester United were formed in 1894 and 1902 respectively, nearly a century after the slave trade was banned.
