Ealing created a video to celebrate their 150th anniversary as a club. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQogAiJJT5M" rel="nofollow - Ealing Trailfinders 150th Year Anniversary Film - YouTube . Only about 5 minutes, but some interesting history.

Congrats to Ealing - thats a long and proud history.

Loved the bit where they went to the wrong pub in 1874 ? and so joined the RFU a couple of years late

Of course Wasps were late.

Wasps and Harlequins cannot even agree on when their clubs were formed.

Quins date from the split and Wasps from their first match.

Which is why Wasps celebrated their 150th a year later than Quins.
