The 1909–10 season was the seventeenth season in which Dundee competed at a Scottish national level, playing in Division One, where they would finish in 6th place.[1] Dundee would also compete in the Scottish Cup, where they would win their first, and to date only, Scottish Cup, their first ever major honour. Playing 10 games, including 5 replays, the Dark Blues would lift the trophy after defeating Clyde at the third attempt 2–1 on 20 April 1910 at Ibrox Park in front of 24,000.[2] [3] Dundee would change up their kit slightly, returning to a buttoned shirt and adding three white hoops to their socks.[4]
