Season Summary

Dundee player Paul McGowan admitted in court to spitting on a bouncer after leaving a nightclub after the previous seasons awards.[3]

Dens manager Neil McCann admitted there was "No positives" to take from the defeat in their second League Cup group match to Dunfermline Athletic in which they lost 1–0.[4]

Dundee were knocked out of the Second Round of the League Cup by Ayr United with manager Neil McCann saying the "3-0 scoreline probably flattered us."[5]

Neil McCann said it was a "sore one to take" after Dundee's loss against Hibernian, their sixth straight league loss leaving them pointless at the bottom of the league.[6]
