Exeter United F.C.

Exeter United F.C.

Exeter United were a football club from Exeter, Devon, who played between 1890 and 1904 and are one of the forerunner clubs of the modern Exeter City. In 1904, Exeter United lost 3-1 to local rivals St Sidwell's United and after the match, it was agreed that the two clubs should become one. The new team took the name Exeter City and continued to play at Exeter United's ground, St James Park, where Exeter City still play today. The team formed from the cricket team of the same name and thus was one of the first football teams with the moniker 'United'.
