Yeovil Town spent almost all of their years outside of The Football League but are still one of the most well known FA Cup "Giant-killing" teams that has earned them notoriety around the country. The club, founded in 1890 as Yeovil Football Club, shared a ground for many years with the town's rugby club. In 1895 they became Yeovil Casuals and moved to play their home games at the Pen Mill Athletic Ground. The club became Yeovil Town in 1907, and in 1915 an amalgamation of Yeovil Town and Petters United led to a new club called Yeovil and Petters United. The merged club reverted to the name Yeovil Town in 1946. This seasons's away shirt, a predominatly black kit with amber trim, was inspired by the amber and black colours of Petters United.
