Dumbarton 1919–1920 football season

Scottish League
There was an improvement from the previous season with an 11th-place finish out of 22, with 39 points, 32 behind champions Rangers.[ 1]
Scottish Cup
With the resumption of the Scottish Cup, Dumbarton were perhaps unfortunate to come up against Rangers in the first round. However they gave a good account of themselves, and lost a very close encounter by the only goal, after a 0-0 draw.
For the second successive season Dumbarton failed to progress from the sectional stage of the Dumbartonshire Cup.
Final league table
