Overview
After a four-season absence, Dumbarton returned to competitive professional football when the app to join the Scottish Combination League succeeded. A slow start meant only 3 points taken from the first four games, but Dumbarton then won 15 straight games to win the title with ease. Subsequently, the club was elected to the Scottish Premier League Division 2.
But the attempt to qualify for the Scottish Cup took place shortly after the second-round defeat in the Scottish Qualifying Cup for Hamilton.
Locally, the Dumbartonshire Cup is played in a league base. Three teams enter with the top two in the league to play in the final. Dumbarton finished at the top of the league but lost to Vale of Leven in the final.
During the season, 13 other 'matches' were played, including an impressive win over a strong Rangers team. Of this match, 9 won, 3 drawn and only 1 defeat, scored 43 goals and conceded 16.
