Leicester City 1884 - 1886

Originally known as Leicester Fosse FC, the club was founded by a group of former public school pupils and members of a bible class who met in the Emmanuel Church in Park Street. Their unusual name is derived from a noted local landmark that dates from the Roman occupation, "Fosse" being Latin for "fortified ditch." Indeed, their first game was played on fields next to Fosse Road against Syston Fosse FC. This shirt is long sleeved and made from 100% cotton.
