Scottish Second Division
[edit]Dumbarton had their best league campaign in over 10 years - including an unbeaten home record - the first for over 30 years, although with only 4 wins in 18 away matches, in the end it became a case of 'catch-up' - 8 wins in their last 10 games not being enough to challenge the leaders. Nevertheless, it was a creditable 4th-place finish, with 44 points, 12 behind champions Partick Thistle.

Scottish League Cup
[edit]Five wins and a draw from the six sectional games meant an easy section qualification. Then Partick Thistle were dispatched in the quarter-final, with the mighty Celtic waiting in the semi-final - and it was only after an extra time 0-0 draw that Dumbarton eventually succumbed by the odd goal in seven in the replay again after extra time.
