Canadian businessman completes Dumbarton purchase
Briefly

Canadian businessman Mario Lapointe has successfully purchased Dumbarton Football Club, which faced significant financial challenges leading to its relegation from Scottish League One. The club's administration process included a 15-point deduction due to insolvency, with concerns over potential dissolution. Lapointe's takeover has been endorsed by the Scottish Professional Football League, allowing the team to compete in League Two for the upcoming season. He plans to visit and engage with fans at 'Meet Mario' events, signaling a hopeful future for the historic 1872-established club.
So many people have helped to get to this conclusion, but most importantly has been the support of the fans. We wish Mario and everyone involved with the club every success for the season ahead and for the longer-term future of the Sons.
Illicit funds led to Dumbarton's financial troubles, culminating in its relegation from Scottish League One and eventual acquisition by Canadian businessman Mario Lapointe.
