List of Dundalk F.C. seasons

Dundalk Football Club is a professional association football club in Dundalk, Ireland. Dundalk compete in the League of Ireland Premier Division—the top tier of football in Ireland. Founded in 1903 as Dundalk G.N.R.—the works-team of the Great Northern Railway. They were a junior club until they joined the Leinster Senior League in 1922–23. After four seasons in that division, they were elected to the League of Ireland for 1926–27. They became the first club from outside Dublin to win the league title in 1932–33, and won their first FAI Cup in 1941–42. They are the second most successful club in the League's history (with 14 league titles and 11 FAI Cups), and the most successful in the Premier Division era.
