  1. 5 hours ago, Nuttall is lost said:

    Is there any photos of it?  Cant find them anywhere online?   I remember going up the stairs and then there would be tables and chairs on the left and the bar facing you and the windows on the right overlooking the pitch.  McEwans Lager on sale on tap.

    Typical Rovers.  They named a bar after a lifelong teetotaller.

  2. My lingering memory of the Dirty Duck was having your pint served in a plastic glass due to the violence which was always breaking out in this place.  Its name was often blamed for its bad reputation.  Eventually it reverted to its proper name of the Castle.

    Sadly, it was demolished and nothing was ever built on its old site.  It's part of the Market Street Lane/Fleming Square car park.

  3. Rovers' first reported game at Church was played on the old Church C.C. ground, not their current one at West End.  It was where Church, Ossie and Accy merge.  It was owned by Captain Pickup (no relation), C.O. of the local militia.  I can remember going for a pint years ago in the Pickup Arms just up the road, near Rist's.
