Scottish League

Main article: 1918–19 Scottish Football League

This was the fifth (and last) season of war-time football, where the playing of all national competitions, other than the Scottish League, was suspended. Membership of the League was increased from 18 to 22, with the re-admission of Aberdeen, Dundee and Raith Rovers, together with the addition of Albion Rovers.

Dumbarton finished 15th out of 18, in the League with 22 points, well behind champions Celtic. This was their worst performance in a number of years, perhaps not unsurprising given the large turnover in playing staff.[1] Most concerning during the season was the inability to score goals, as in 17 of the 34 league matches, Dumbarton failed to 'find the net'.
