Scottish Second Division
[edit ]Although the league campaign saw a great improvement from the previous season, the inability to take points from the 'front-runners' meant that Dumbarton were never really in with a chance of snatching a promotion place and finished in 7th place, with 40 points, 16 behind champions Falkirk.

Scottish League Cup
[edit ]The League Cup however, brought some cheer, with four wins and a draw from the six sectional games, Dumbarton qualified to meet Brechin City in a play off. A good home win after a tight draw at Brechin meant a quarter final against Ayr United, who were however to prove too strong.
