Original: However on the other hand, Newcastle West End were in serious financial trouble and approached East End with a view to a take over. Newcastle West End were eventually dissolved, and a number of their players and backroom staff joined Newcastle East End, effectively merging the two clubs, with Newcastle East End taking over the lease on St James' Park in May 1892.
Simplified: Newcastle United was formed in 1892 after the two rival clubs Newcastle West End and Newcastle East End grouped together.
