Mr Robertson writes:"Poloc has been a part of our lives for many, many years and I, for one, am extremely sorry to be the one to have to convey this news.The club is said to have been told that the lease was being terminated after being invited to a meeting by email, without being told"what the intention of it was".
The club said there were plans to let another organisation develop the site for sporting purposes but it was"unlikely that cricket will be played at Shawholm in the future".A spokesperson said:"The news that one of Scotland’s most iconic cricket grounds may be lost forever is deeply concerning.
