In 1897 Herbert William Rudge founded Dings Crusaders Rugby Club as a part of the Dings Boys Club. This book tells the story of how the rugby club grew from humble beginnings to competing in the 4th tier of English rugby.

In the 1989/90 season, Bristol Rovers clinched promotion to the old `Second Division', thanks largely to the tremendous team spirit of a side exiled in Bath, away from its traditional Bristol home.
