Dumbarton's slump continued in their 14th successive season in the Second Division, by finishing 18th and bottom, with just 16 points - 43 behind champions Falkirk.

[1] The transfer of Johnny Haddow to Falkirk in November was a huge loss and just one further win was registered all season.

With there being no applicants for admission to the Second Division, the bottom two clubs - Raith Rovers and Dumbarton - maintained their league status.

There was some cheer when Dumbarton regained the Dumbartonshire Cup, with victory over non-league side Vale Ocaba.

In addition Richard English, Robert Henderson, Robert Kyle, William McDonald, James Mcleod, Allan Miller, Archie Milliken, Hugh Moran, James Muir, Edwin Powell, John Pyper and John Rodger all played their last games in Dumbarton 'colours'.
