Scottish League

The return to the 'top' divisions in Scottish League football was a success in many ways with Dumbarton always challenging the top places in the Second Division throughout the campaign - but eventually had to settle for a 4th place out of 19, only 7 points behind champions Queen's Park (and just 4 short of a promotion place).
