Mansfield Town F.C.
Mansfield Town was formed under the name of Mansfield Wesleyans in 1897, the name of the club coming from the local Wesleyan church. The club played friendlies up until the 1902–03 season, when it joined the Mansfield and District Amateur League. When the league dropped its amateur tag in 1906, the church abandoned the club, which changed its name to Mansfield Wesley and moved into the Notts and District League.
Mansfieldtown
It was called Mandelvelleston, Mandevilleston and many other names in historical documents. The name is derived from an Anglo-Norman 
family called Maundeville, which settled there soon after 1172.
