Season 1966–67 was the 90th football season in which Dumbarton competed at a Scottish national level, entering the Scottish Football League for the 60th time, the Scottish Cup for the 72nd time and the Scottish League Cup for the 20th time.

Overview
This was to be an uninspiring league season from the start, with only one win in the first nine games, which saw Dumbarton finish in 14th place, with 33 points, a massive 36 behind champions Morton.
In the Scottish Cup, after a win over local rivals Clydebank in the second preliminary round, Dumbarton fell to Division 1 opponents Partick Thistle in the first round proper.
In the League Cup, there was little to cheer with only a single win and a draw from the six sectional matches which meant no further progress in the competition.
Locally, Dumbarton's bad luck in the Stirlingshire Cup continued to 'dog' them. A first round draw against Stirling Albion was decided by the toss of a coin - which Dumbarton lost - the second such loss in successive seasons.
Notable this season was the introduction of substitutes - one replacement was allowed in all competitive games.
