Forgotten Clubs of Wales & Shropshire
Welsh Football History A-Z based off things in my books. U - Unionists Barry Unionist Athletic was formed in August 1898 as a direct replacement for Barry District AFC, when the Unionist Athletic Club decided to organise a team under Association rules. They entered the South Wales League, @FAWales Welsh Cup and South Wales Senior Cup. Their colours were given as chocolate and blue. The club won the @SouthWalesFA Senior Cup in their first season when they beat @RhayaderTownFC in the final. They won it again in 1901 when they beat @LlandrindodAFC They won the South Wales League in 1902. The club was then disbanded and reformed as Barry United Athletic.

1894, at an inquest in Cadoxton, the Cardiff and District coroner, , had an unexpected complaint… Not about the case—but about the name of the town. He suggested it ought to be shortened because “Cadoxton-juxta-Barry” was a very long word to write.”
