Most people think this is Old English, but this specific “Y” doesn’t appear that way in Old English. Any specific suggestions?

Is this a logo for a sports team? If so, it was most likely custom designed. You can get close with something like Archive Black Title, Baroque Text JF or Crusader.

The New York Times as a Y somewhat similar - but with the descender reversed.
