The cost of travel was one of the biggest issues facing provincial clubs in the League, and the club had sought support from its parent company, the Great Northern Railway (Ireland), with regard to travel expenses, but were refused.
Three players were retained from the Leinster Senior League squad - Joey Quinn, Paddy McMahon and Hugh Craig.
The season opened with the 18-match League schedule, and on 21 August 1926 the team travelled to Cork to face fellow works-team Fordsons in the opening match of the season.
The 30-strong group of players, officials and supporters who travelled were treated to a tour of the Ford factory before the game.
The result was a 2–1 defeat for the new boys in a match the "Cork Examiner" described as being "one of the best ever seen in Ballinlough", Joey Quinn with Dundalk's first ever Free State League goal.
Their first win would come at home to Jacobs on 19 September.
They only managed two points away from home, including one in the first ever league match in Glenmalure Park, and finished their first league season in eighth position.
The nine-match League of Ireland Shield schedule commenced after Christmas, again with a visit to Cork to play Fordsons.
The team managed two home wins and a draw, finishing seventh.
Old Leinster Senior League rivals, Drumcondra, defeated them in a replay in the first round of the Leinster Senior Cup; while a heavy defeat to Bohemians saw them exit the FAI Cup in the first round, with the result that a number of players were released, including Quinn.
A total of 47 players lined out for the team during the season, 11 of whom appeared only once, as manager McCleery tapped into his Northern Irish connections in his attempts to build a competitive side.
Only two players would be retained for the following season - Gordon McDiarmuid (who had joined early in the Shield campaign) and Fred Norwood.

Deepfake pornography
Deepfake pornography, or simply fake pornography, is a type of synthetic porn that is generated using deepfake technology.
Many deepfakes on the internet feature pornography of people, often female celebrities whose likeness is typically used without their consent.
Deepfake pornography prominently surfaced on the Internet in 2017, particularly on Reddit.
The first one that captured attention was the Daisy Ridley deepfake, which was featured in several articles.
Other prominent pornographic deepfakes were of various other celebrities.
In December 2017, Samantha Cole published an article about r/deepfakes in "Vice" that drew the first mainstream attention to deepfakes being shared in online communities.
Six weeks later, Cole wrote in a follow-up article about the large increase in AI-assisted fake pornography.
Since 2017, Samantha Cole of Vice has published a series of articles covering news surrounding deepfake pornography.
Since then, multiple social media outlets have banned or made efforts to restrict deepfake pornography.
Most notably, the r/deepfakes subreddit on Reddit was banned on February 7, 2018, due to the policy violation of "involuntary pornography".
In the same month, representatives from Twitter stated that they would suspend accounts suspected of posting non-consensual deepfake content.
Scarlett Johansson, a frequent subject of deepfake porn, spoke publicly about the subject to "The Washington Post" in December 2018.
In a prepared statement, she expressed that despite concerns, she would not attempt to remove any of her deepfakes, due to her belief that they do not affect her public image and that differing laws across countries and the nature of internet culture make any attempt to remove the deepfakes "a lost cause".
While celebrities like herself are protected by their fame, however, she believes that deepfakes pose a grave threat to women of lesser prominence who could have their reputations damaged by depiction in involuntary deepfake pornography or revenge porn.
In June 2019, a downloadable Windows and Linux application called DeepNude was released which used neural networks, specifically generative adversarial networks, to remove clothing from images of women.
The app had both a paid and unpaid version, the paid version costing $50.
On June 27 the creators removed the application and refunded consumers.
On January 31st, 2018, Gfycat began removing all deepfakes from its site.
In February 2018, r/deepfakes was banned by Reddit for sharing involuntary pornography.
Other websites have also banned the use of deepfakes for involuntary pornography, including the social media platform Twitter and the pornography site Pornhub.
However, some websites have not yet banned Deepfake content, including 4chan and 8chan.
Also in February 2018, Pornhub said that it would ban deepfake videos on its website because it is considered “non consensual content” which violates their terms of service.
They also stated previously to Mashable that they will take down content flagged as deepfakes.
Writers from Motherboard from Buzzfeed News reported that searching “deepfakes” on Pornhub still returned multiple recent deepfake videos.
Chat site Discord has taken action against deepfakes in the past, and has taken a general stance against deepfakes..
In September 2018, Google added "involuntary synthetic pornographic imagery” to its ban list, allowing anyone to request the block of results showing their fake nudes.
