info Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 For Tarff Rover to start playing serious football again quite a few improbable things would have to happen. A/ Someone with quite a bit of LONG TERM cash to spare would have to take over. B/They would have to find a working committee which in a small villages like Kirkcowan would be nigh on impossible. C/One of three clubs in a ten mile radius (Newton Stewart Wigtown Creetown) would have to pack in. D/They would resurrect a pitch which was , by today's standards, was poor. So it does not seem doable. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacksgranda Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 That was an interesting read stretching back over 14 years (two years before I joined P&B). Always a wee bit of a downer reading about former clubs, although it's been going on since football started, but never nice to see clubs - well established or otherwise - disappearing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many a gid night in there in my youth Looked like the front door was boarded up, didn't look to see if there was a back door. The gates into the pitch are also padlocked. Who owns it or has the key? I'm sure if it was in a more urban area it would have been stripped, covered in graffiti and burned down by now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
