Relying on extensive research, the author brings to life a late Victorian era where football mushroomed to become the national pastime. The cast of characters who formed the club are profiled in detail - Sam Black, the Doughty brothers, Jack Peden and John Cassidy were legends on the pitch while Mr Albut, the chairman, was charged with the often impossible task of making ends meet by whatever means necessary off it.

Unfortunately, Heath's financial health took a turn for the worse following a ruinous court case. The debts dragged the club slowly but surely toward bankruptcy and a date with destiny.
