Main article: 1964–65 Scottish Football League

Following a poor start to the league season, which saw only one win taken from the first five games, manager Jackie Fearn resigned, and by the time Willie Toner took over, the season was effectively over, as only another win and a draw had been taken from the subsequent seven matches. An unbeaten run of 8 games in November/December brought some cheer, but in the end only 14th place could be achieved, with 32 points, 27 behind champions Stirling Albion.
