[edit] Career
Dunn started his career in the Milton Keynes Dons centre of excellence before Northampton Town took over his scholarship in the summer of 2005. After a year playing youth and reserve football, Dunn was made a squad number for the 2006–07 season by then manager Stuart Gray. For the following two seasons, Dunn was understudy to Mark Bunn. On 3 May 2008, Dunn was given the opportunity to make his début in the last game of the 2007–08 season to gain first-team experience. The game was at home to Tranmere Rovers and Northampton Town won 2–1.[1]
Bunn was sold near the end of the 2008 summer transfer window to Blackburn Rovers, which stopped Stuart Gray from signing a new goalkeeper and meant Dunn was selected as first choice for the forthcoming season.[2] After spending the 2008–09 season in and out of the team, Dunn signed a new two-year contract on 11 May 2009.[3] During the 2009–10 season, Dunn was the regular goalkeeper and went on a run of five clean sheets in a row without conceding a goal in 524 minutes. This took him to third place in the record number of minutes without conceding a goal for Northampton Town behind Alan Starling and Len Hammond.[4]
On 30 June 2011, Coventry City confirmed the signing of Chris Dunn on a three-year contract; as Dunn is under 24, an undisclosed fee was agreed between the two clubs.[5] He made his debut for the club on 10 September 2011, as a half-time substitute for Joe Murphy in a 2–0 win against Derby County.[6]
