2020–21 Dundee F.C. season

The 2020–21 season will be Dundee's second season in the second flight of Scottish football since their relegation at the end of the 2018–19 season.[1]

Due to the disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the teams in the Scottish Championship agreed to shorten the season to 27 games rather than the regular 36, with a provisional start date on 17 October 2020.[2][3]

gollark: Add ABR, give me the channel ID, and I'll do it manually.
gollark: Well, I couldn't work out how to make that available to others safely, so I have to do it.
gollark: Oh, right.
gollark: If it's too similar, then the low Levenshtein distance between apiospatial config files and your APIONET config file *could* actually open an informational path through apio*meta*space, which would then allow IRC messages to travel across it, thus possibly causing incursions.
gollark: Well, if the configuration is too similar, then it might be too similar to configuration files used by IRC networks in apiospace. Now, of course, most apiospatial information is highly cognitometaapiohyperhazardous, so it would be bad if it entered normal IRC networks.
