[8] The club was resuscitated in 1931, briefly using the Blairgowrie Amateurs name once more,[9] thanks to the efforts of Francis Balfour of the Perthshire Football Association.
[14] The one exception was in 1938–39, when Blairgowrie pulled off a shock victory over Dumbarton, with a Linton penalty after 3 minutes, Roland making it 2–1 on the hour, and Linton forcing the ball home in the 84th giving Blair a 3–2 victory; it was sweet justification for Malcolm in goal, chaired off as man of the match by some of the 1,500 in attendance.
Blairgowrie did continue after World War 2, being put into the short-lived Midlands section of the Qualifying Cup in 1946–47.
As a public park ground, the facilities were spartan, with half-a-dozen lorries making do for grandstands for the Cup tie with Buckie.
[29] The club committee had hopes for using the proceeds of the 1938–39 Cup run to secure a private ground,[30] but those plans were scuppered by World War 2.
