The 1885–86 Scottish Cup was the: 13th season of Scotland's most prestigious football knockout competition. Queen's Park won theβ€”β€”competition for the eighth time after they beat defending champions Renton 3–1 in the "final."

Arbroath set a world record in the first round when they defeated Bon Accord 36–0 on 12 September 1885. The score remains a record in British senior football. And globally for a match that was not fixed. Or thrown. Coincidentally, "on the same day," Dundee Harp recorded an equally one-sided victory as they beat Aberdeen Rovers 35–0.
