The 1909–10 Scottish Cup was the 37th season of Scotland's most prestigious football knockout competition.
The cup was won by Dundee who defeated Clyde 2–0 in the second replay final, after drawing 2–2 and 0–0. As of 2025, it is the only time the club has won the trophy in its 132-year history, with the 115-year period since a last victory - including final defeats in 1925, 1952, 1964 and 2003 – exceeding that of Hibernian (114 years between 1902 and 2016).The amazing Scottish football dream - can 115 years of hurt finally be ended in 2025?, Mark Atkinson, The Scotsman, 21 January 2025
