Scottish League
[edit]Dumbarton's third consecutive season in the Second Division began well with just 4 losses in the first 20 games, and at the turn of the year were a point off the top of the league. However any hopes for promotion were dashed by winning only one of the subsequent 8 games and despite a mini revival in February–March, in the end Dumbarton had to settle for 8th place out of 20, with 40 points - 10 behind champions Dundee United.[1]
