Garliestown F.C.

[5] It was also a regular entrant to the Law Cup,[6] for clubs in the two counties of Wigtownshire and Kirkcudbrightshire, reaching the final for the only time in 1895–96, but losing 3–2 away at Douglas Wanderers, all of the goals coming in the first half.

[7] However, on a wider stage it was almost entirely without success, its first two wins in the Churchill Cup (which included clubs from Dumfriesshire) coming in 1893–94 against St Cuthbert's Wanderers[8] and Newton Stewart.

[10] This small success gained the club an invitation to play in the Southern Counties Charity Cup for the only time, but it lost 6–0 at Newton Stewart in its only tie.

Its first appearance in 1895–96 was a 3–2 defeat to a Newtown Stewart side filled with reserves[12] and, after scratching from its next two entries, re-formed itself in the early 1900s with patronage from the Earl of Galloway and the local Member of Parliament, Sir H. E.

[13] Its third entry, in 1905–06, saw the club beat Tarff Rovers 4–3 in a replay, coming from 2–1 down at half-time,[14] for its only win in the competition.
