History of Red Devils
In the early 1960's Salford Rugby club toured France wearing red shirts and became known as "The Red Devils". Manager Sir Matt Busby liked the sound of it, thinking that a nasty devil is more intimidating to opponents than angelic babes. He declared Manchester United should also be known as the "The Red Devils" and soon the club began incorporating the devil logo into match programmes and scarves. In 1970 the club badge was redesigned, but now with a cheeky wee devil in the centre holding a pitch-fork.
The United club crest had originally been the City of Manchester coat of arms. During the mid 60's it became similar to the current design but instead of the devil in the centre it had 3 diagonal yellow lines.
The "devil badge" was incorporated onto the home shirt for the first time in 1973 after the FA recommended English clubs copyright their crests. It has become one of the most instantly recognisable commercial symbols in the world and has remained virtually unchanged ever since - although in the mid 1980's Adidas added two football boots on each corner and in 1998 the words "Football club" were removed, much to the annoyance of die-hard fans. In the mid 1990's the club introduced the official "fun" matchday mascot "Fred the Red" - a giant Red Devil (who has his own line of less-than-popular kids merchandise).

History of Ship in Manchester United Badge
Manchester United's badge was already changed at least three times since the 1960s. Interestingly, all of the logos, there is always a ship at the peak. Figure ship with four screens that depict the Manchester Canal, a waterway built to liberate the city of Manchester from dependence of the Liverpool.
Since 19th century, Manchester grew rapidly as an industrial city. Its population jumped from 322,000 people in 1801 to more than a million people in 50 years. The rapid development of Manchester is not only supported by Lancashire cotton industry, but also the development of manufacturing industry, machinery and textiles.
The lack of port made import-export activity in Manchester must be channeled through rail or road to the port of Liverpool. Manchester finally decided to build their own pier which have direct access to the sea. Then, in 1887 until 1894 with a cost of 15 million pounds, Manchester Canal was built, its 58 kilometers long.
Since then, residents feel the prosperity because of Manchester docks and canal. In fact, since then also the symbol of Manchester city council changed, added to majestic sailing ship. Badge of Manchester United soccer club was decorated with four sailing ship was almost certainly inspired by the glory Manchester city that turned into a city that developed from the opening of the canal and docks in the city.
