The 1922–23 season was the twenty-eighth season in which Dundee competed at a Scottish national level, playing in Division One, where they would finish in 7th place.[1] Dundee would also compete in the Scottish Cup, where they were knocked out in the Quarter-finals on the third attempt by Third Lanark.[2]

At the end of the season, Dundee would embark on a football tour of Spain, facing off against illustrious names such as Real Madrid and Barcelona, and impressing with good results, including a win over the former, despite the demands of the tour.[3] [4]
