Season in focus

United finished fifth in Division Two, with Jack Peddie scoring 15 goals. The league position was steady rather than spectacular, and a second-round FA Cup exit offered little additional distinction. The value of the season is in gradual progress: the side was becoming competitive enough to mount a promotion challenge within three years.
