tipitover Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 Sounds very likely the other side was Creetown??????????? The registration could be a thing of the past because if the end in the top two in future, they will eventually be allowed to compete again the the Scottish Cup. Are the amateur set-up also called Tarff Rovers? nothing to do with creetown !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snedd Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Hi, my elderly neighbour played for Tarff Rovers in the 1930's and 1940's, does anyone know how I can find any photos or memorabilia from that period as I understand they are no more as a club. The only thing he has left is an official approach from Falkirk dated July 1941 offering him a contract for the coming season. In the contract he was offered 4 pounds per came, 1 pound win bonus and ten shillings for a draw......I would appreciate any help...Thanks 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HibeeJibee Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 (edited) It's a good question. Often local pubs have old photos, btw. Some bits-n-pieces here: http://www.kirkcowan.info/3.html They had an attractive badge: Anyone know if the club documents etc. were donated to the Hampden Museum, or D&G Council archives? Any ex-committee still around locally? If an old Bebo page is correct, final chairman Clifford Allan - mentioned above - died in 2008. http://archive.bebo.com/Profile.jsp?MemberId=4892846486 Some Bebo-sourced pics: Edited April 9, 2014 by HibeeJibee 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snedd Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 HibeeJibee thanks very much Its a shame when good old traditional clubs go to ground, but football is no longer a sport its a business 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnron Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 I followed Tarff for about ten years up until they folded in '03 and was at a lot of the games listed above in the epic finish to the 01-02 season. I was also at the club's very last game in the Scottish Cup at Vale of Leithen (an 8-0 reverse i my memory serves me right). I used to commute to the games from Edinburgh and once or twice ended up travelling 3 hours midweek only to find the game called off. When Tarff folded my interest in football dwindled and I developed more of an interest in other sports (cricket, shinty, bandy!). I've still got a first team shirt that i somehow managed to acquire plus a few other odds and ends in the attic including a few Chic Charnley posters! After 11 years I'm still gutted the club is no more. Like i said i don't really follow football any more. Not like you can suddenly start following another team like it's the same thing. Not been to Kirkcowan for a long time. Miss the place 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spyro Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 Breaks my heart saying pictures like this... evolution though, adapt or die.
