Football career
[edit]Dunmore was born in South Shields and was educated at Stanhope Road School, representing County Durham Schools, before joining local club, Simonside, in 1928.[2] He was soon recruited by Newcastle United, firstly joining their third team, before signing a professional contract for the first team in 1928.[2] He failed to make a first-team appearance for Newcastle and moved on to Derby County in April 1930.[2]
Still not having made a League appearance, he joined Southampton, of the Football League Second Division in June 1932. He made his only first-team appearance when he replaced Dick Neal as outside right for the match against West Ham United on 24 September 1932. The match was won 4–3, with a hat-trick from Johnny Arnold.[3] Dunmore spent the remainder of his time at the Saints in the reserves, scoring nine goals in 47 matches.[2]
At the end of the season, he was released from his contract[2] and he wound up his career at Mansfield Town.[1]
