Another one of Anderson's signings from the junior ranks, he was recruited from Elmwood Juniors. Ally was a right-winger and was a member of the side that managed to score in the club's record 10-0 wins against Alloa and Dunfermline in successive weeks in March 1947.

Gunn scored fifteen goals in 1948-49 as Dundee were denied the title at the death, which was his highest tally for the club.

Ally was then sold to Huddersfield Town in 1951 for a fee of £9000, he went on to play for Bournemouth.
