He has previously played for St Johnstone, Brechin City, Raith Rovers, Greenock Morton and Dundee.

Career

Dyer began his career at St Johnstone, progressing through the club's youth ranks.

In September 2007, he went on loan to Brechin City.[1] He returned to Saints in December after making nine appearances for Brechin. He made a permanent move to Brechin in January 2008.[2]

On 20 May 2010, he was confirmed as a new signing for Raith Rovers on a two-year full-time deal.[3]

Dyer signed for Greenock Morton in May 2012, under freedom of contract.[4] His contract expired in May 2013.

On 5 June 2013, Dyer signed for Dundee along with fellow former Morton player Peter MacDonald.[5] Dyer made his debut for the club in the first round of the Scottish Challenge Cup, in a 1–0 win over Alloa Athletic, where he came on for Kevin McBride in the 79th minute.[6] He soon made his league debut in a 0–0 draw against Raith Rovers.[7] After making twenty-four appearances in all competitions, as Dundee won the Scottish Championship and promotion to the Scottish Premiership, Dyer signed a two-year contract extension.[8] He left Dundee at the end of the 2014–15 season, having not been offered a new contract.[9]

After his release by Dundee, Dyer re-signed with Brechin City for the third time.[10] After three seasons at Glebe Park, Dyer signed a one year deal with Dumbarton in May 2018.[11]
