Career

Dundas began his career at Croydon, spending six years in the first team before moving on to Dulwich Hamlet and then Carshalton Athletic. He started his first spell with Sutton United in 2007, moving to Hampton & Richmond Borough two years later before returning to Sutton after a season.[3] Dundas then spent eight seasons with Sutton, including a brief loan spell with Tonbridge Angels at the start of the 2016-17 season.[4] He returned to Hampton & Richmond at the start of the 2018-19 season,[5] but briefly returned to Sutton in November[6] before returning to the Beveree the following month.[7]

He returned to Sutton United for a fourth spell at the end of the 2018–19 season.[8] Dundas made his English Football League debut on 11 September 2021 against Stevenage at the age of 40,[9] becoming the oldest player to make their EFL debut since the Second World War.[10] Following Sutton's relegation back to non-league, Dundas departed the club at the end of the 2023–24 season.[11]
