History

1872-1899

In 1872, a group of young men met on a wet Sunday afternoon in Dumbarton. This meeting does not appear in the history book but was of immense importance to the people of Dunbartonshire and to sport. For this group of men were founding a football club after seeing their first ever match on the Saturday when Vale of Leven traveled to the Old Recreation Ground at Crosshill, Glasgow to be beaten 3-0 by Queens Park. Vale of Leven Football Club are a Scottish football (soccer) club based in the town of Alexandria in the Vale of Leven area of West Dunbartonshire. ... Queens Park Football Club is a famous Scottish football team, and is the oldest football club in Scotland[1], founded in 1867. ...

These men were forging a team that was to carry the name of Dumbarton to wherever football was played or talked about.

In 1873 the Club became members of the newly formed S.F.A. By 1879 Dumbarton were in their home ground of Boghead Park and staring a run of victories that chalked up an astonishing record of not losing a home game for five years. They won the Scottish Cup in 1882/3 and five times were beaten finalists. As reigning Scottish Cup holders, they met the F.A.Cup winners, Blackburn Olympic, and thrashed them 6-1 to be hailed as champions of Great Britain. The Scottish Football Association (SFA) is the governing body for the sport of football in Scotland. ... The Scottish Cup The Scottish Football Association Challenge Cup, also known as The Scottish Cup, is the national cup knockout competition in Scottish football. ... This article needs additional references or sources for verification. ... Blackburn Olympic were a football team which existed for about a decade in the 19th Century. ...

Through the years, with the development of the S.F.A. and the Scottish League, it has become relatively straightforward to identify a football club with a particular 'Home' ground due to the imposed requirements. This was not always the case. The Scottish Football League is a league of football teams in Scotland. ...

As members of the S.F.A., clubs were required to have permanent pitches. This requirement did not however cover the area outside the playing area and matches could be played under their auspices provided the pitch markings met with the requirements. It was only as crowds increased and fixtures were replayed due to spectator encroachment that the home club became responsible for spectator control and had to 'rope off the playing pitch. Then clubs with serious intentions began to look for a permanent home.

In the early years all clubs moved venue on a regular basis due to the availability of pitches. Football was totally amateur and relatively disorganised and club committees showed little forethought by seeking permanent accommodation, often living game by game. With little income, clubs could not afford to enter long term commitments for the lease of land. Dumbarton Football Club were one of the first to enter into a lease, securing Boghead Park on such an arrangement in 1879. After 121 years, the club had the longest occupancy of a ground in British senior football.

Match reports were vague regarding exact venues. For a fixture between Vale of Leven and Dumbarton the venue was listed as 'a field near Alexandria'. Indeed, the first fixture at Boghead Park was played 'in a field on Boghead Road, half a mile from the town. With such vagueness, it would be foolhardy to suggest the venues used by Dumbarton can all be identified. Alexandria (Cathair Alastair in Gaelic) is a town in West Dunbartonshire, Scotland. ...

Prior to Boghead, it is certain Dumbarton used a number of venues as a home, some only being used in isolated instances. In 1873, fixtures were played at Meadow Park, Broadmeadow, a site now replaced by an industrial estate. From there they moved to Ropework Lane although the dates are unknown. Early in 1875 it is recorded that Alclutha , another town club, were sharing Dumbarton's ground at Ropework Lane but it is unknown how long they had been there. In September of that year, Dumbarton moved to Broomfauld Park, moving again to Lowman's Park, Glasgow Road for season 1876/7 and then to Private Park Townend the following season before setting up base at Boghead in 1879.. It is known Dumbarton played the occasional fixture at Meadow Park, home of Dumbarton Athletic, and in February 1881, a friendly against Rangers was played at Levengrove, the ground of Lennox Amateurs, as the playing surface was much better than Boghead! Rangers Football Club are a football club from Glasgow, Scotland who currently play in the Scottish Premier League. ...

In 1884 the Dunbartonshire Football Association was formed and the Dunbartonshire Cup was contested annually thereafter. In its 50 year existence, Dumbarton were the dominant force, winning the trophy on no fewer than 23 times, including the first and last contests.

The Scottish League was formed in 1890 and the very first championship was shared between Dumbarton and Rangers who tied with 29 points from 18 fixtures. Had either of the subsequent methods of separating tying teams been in force (Goal Average and Goal Difference) Dumbarton would have been the outright Champions. But the following year, they made no mistake and won the championship outright with 37 points. At that time, the League consisted of 10 teams and the first President of the Scottish League was Alex Lawrence, the Dumbarton President.

In May 1892 inflicted Rangers heaviest ever league defeat when they thrashed the Gers 6-0. In a friendly played on New Years Day 1892, Dumbarton inflicted Celtic's record home defeat with an 8-0 win at Celtic Park. This was also the first game in which goal-nets were used. Celtic Football Club (pronounced seltik in IPA; AIM: CCP)[1] is a Scottish football club, competing in the Scottish Premier League, the highest form of competition in Scotland. ...

From their inception to the turn of the century, Dumbarton were one of the premier clubs in the country. During that period, 18 players earned between them 60 international caps, the record being held by James McAulay with 9 to his credit. McAulay became the first goalkeeper to be tagged 'The Prince of Goalkeepers'. He earned the first of his international caps as a forward and the rest as a goalkeeper. He only tried his hand between the sticks when the regular 'keeper John (Diver) Kennedy lost form. McAulay had the astonishing record of NEVER being on a losing international team. These were the halcyon days when Scotland's international team revolved around Dumbarton players.

1900-1999

But just as empires rise and fall, so do football clubs, and the dark days were just ahead for Dumbarton. By the turn of the century, they were all but out of existence and only began to emerge from the shadows around 1905. The major contributory factor towards their decline was their reluctance to embrace professionalism, which led to the local talent heading elsewhere.

By 1911, Dumbarton had won the 2nd Division championship, but there was no automatic promotion and they remained in that division. Then war broke out and football took a back seat. By the early twenties, football had returned to normality and in 1921 it was decided to introduce automatic promotion and relegation between the first and second divisions. Unfortunately this worked against Dumbarton as they, along with Queens Park and Clydebank were relegated in the first season. It was to take Dumbarton 50 years to return to the top division. Clydebank Football Club is a Scottish football club based in the town of Clydebank, West Dunbartonshire. ...

Their was a brief spark of hope, when in 1951 Dumbarton won the St. Mungo Quaich, a trophy contested to celebrate the Festival of Britain. That apart, Dumbarton largely languished in the doldrums. Again, the club reached a low ebb in 1954 when the formation of a new board of directors was required to save the club from extinction. Although the extensive fund raising activities kept the club alive, it did not produce tangible on the field success.

By the mid 1960's, the club was again in trouble, and at the invitation of the board, the chairman of the Hutchison Engineering Group of Companies, Robert Robertson joined the board and brought to the club the drive and knowledge of modern planning and financing. Hutchisons acquired the controlling interest in the football club which began to go from strength to strength. In 1968, John Hosie, who had been club secretary since 1954 became full time club secretary. In December of the same year, Jackie Stewart, who had made a success of being Albion Rovers manager, came to manage Dumbarton. And so the scene was set, with the combination of finance and a proven manager. Albion Rovers is also the name of a Welsh football team, see Albion Rovers F.C. (Wales). ...

It was obvious to everyone that a new look and spirit had arrived in Dumbarton. The dreams of nearly half a century of returning to the 1st Division became a possibility. Working towards this end, Dumbarton started to buy players who could bring the necessary experience and steadiness.

June 1970 saw ex-Celt Charlie Gallagher come to Boghead to be followed three months later by Jack Bolton from Raith Rovers. Added to talent such as Lawrie Williams, Johnny Graham, Kenny Wilson and Roy McCormack, the squad began to take shape. In October of that year, Dumbarton succumbed 4-3 after extra time to Celtic in the semi-final of the League Cup, after a 0-0 draw, also after extra time. This was against a Celtic side which only months earlier had lost the European Cup final to Feyenoord.

Season 1971-2 proved to be THE season, with promotion secured by defeating Berwick Rangers in the final fixture of the season. After a poor start, it took as run of 10 wins from the last 11 league fixtures to secure the championship. Kenny Wilson scored an amazing 42 goals, a club record, to add to the 38 he had scored the previous season. Berwick Rangers F.C. is a football team based in the English town of Berwick_upon_Tweed, but currently playing in the Scottish Football League. ...

The first season back in the top flight was always going to be tough, but it was made even tougher when, midway through, Jackie Stewart resigned to become manager of St Johnstone. The reigns were taken up by Alex Wright who had been his assistant since the start of the season. Relegation was only avoided on the last day of the season, but this was the platform Wright needed to take the club to greater heights. In the years to come, Dumbarton were able to develop their own players, players who would go on to greater things. Murdo MacLeod and Graeme Sharp gained full international honours , Ian Wallace was transferred for £1m and the McAdam brothers played for The Old Firm, on different sides. St. ...

Only with the development of the three league set up did Dumbarton have to succumb to dropping down a division again, having finished just outside the top 10 required to play in the inaugural Premier League. In the first season of the new set up Dumbarton reached the semi final of the Scottish Cup, losing 3-0 to Hearts in a replay. The next few years were disappointing before in 1983/4 the club were promoted to the Premier League, a venture which would last for one season only.

From then on, the 1980's were a matter of survival as, through a set of unfortunate circumstances, the club changed hands on three occasions. The instability led to two relegations, taking Dumbarton back to the lowest division, a position they were forced to endure for four seasons before promotion was won again, under the leadership of Billy Lamont. Again league re-construction conspired against Dumbarton and they were demoted, only to win promotion in 1994/5 at the first attempt.

Unfortunately, promotion was followed by two successive relegations which saw Dumbarton take their place in the 3rd Division in 1997/8.

2001-Present

However, in season 2001/2002, Sons escaped the bowels of Scottish football, securing promotion to the 2nd division on the very last day of the campaign. The club stayed in the Second Division for 4 seasons until finishing bottom in 2005/06. The club were favourites to bounce straight back up the following season & were on course to do so by the mid-point in the season, however, their luck changed after losing 4-0 to Cetic in the third round of the Scottish Cup. The teams main goal scorer, Stephen Dobbie, returned to St. Johnstone after his loan deal finished in January, to add to that a series of matches were cancelled due to sever weather conditions meaning that throughout February & March Dumbarton, with their part-time squad, played every Saturday & Thursday for 8 weeks in a row. The club finished 5th, narrowly missing out on a playoff place.
