Division 1 – Encouraging 6th Place
George Burley took over the reigns with Ally McLeod finally leaving football managment.
With little money, he took the club into the final of the B&Q Cup, a new annual competition based on the Centenary Cup format, only to lose 1-0 to Hamilton Academical.
An encouraging 6th place was achieved by the team, albeit some 10 points behind the promotion places. Pride of results for the sweason was a 7-0 win over Meadowbank Thistle in September.
