Season 1955–56 was the 79th season in which Dumbarton competed at a Scottish national level, entering the Scottish Football League for the 49th time, the Scottish Cup for the 61st time and the Scottish League Cup for the 9th time. == Overview == While the return to the 'top' divisions in Scottish League football did not in the end produce the hoped for promotion, nevertheless there were many positives to be taken from a most successful season. Dumbarton were always challenging the top places in Division B throughout the season and eventually finished up 4th of 19, only 7 points behind champions Queen's Park (and just 4 short of a promotion place). In the Scottish Cup, Dumbarton negotiated a tricky tie against Highland League opposition, before losing out to Dundee United. For the first time, Dumbarton qualified from their League Cup section, winning 3 and drawing the other of their 4 matches. In a play off, Morton were seen off - before Division A St Mirren were to prove to be too much for them in the quarter final. The Stirlingshire Cup semi final tie was a thriller, where Dumbarton lost by the odd goal in an 11 goal feast against A Division opponents Falkirk. Another feature of the season was the continuing goal scoring exploits of Hugh Gallacher. Arriving from Arbroath at the beginning of the previous season - where he scored 32 goals in 34 games, albeit on the whole against 'reserve' sides - he was to top that performance by scoring 46 goals in 46 games - a goal a game! 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「1955–56 Dumbarton F.C. season」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
