Dingle Albion - League Champions (1934/35)

Extract from Albert Walmsley's Memoirs::
I was told that in 1912 at the other end of the Flat Tops was a shop called Dingle's; it was next to the Roman Catholic Infant School [St Bedes].
Mr Dingle formed a football team and this was called Dingle Rovers, this was a very good team until the war started.
