Career

Born in Fraserburgh, Duthie began his career with his local side Fraserburgh Town before joining Football League side Hartlepool United in 1922.[1] He was unable to break into the first team, making no appearances,[2] and returned to Scotland to play for Clydebank.[1] He rejoined Hartlepool the following season and made his debut on 10 November 1923 in a 0–0 draw with New Brighton. He made three further appearances, scoring once in a 10–1 victory over St Peter's Albion in the FA Cup, before leaving the club at the end of the season.[2]

He joined Cardiff City in 1933 but the club endured a difficult season, finishing bottom of the Third Division South, and he was released. He later played for Welsh league side Caerau and Midland Football League side Peterborough United.[1][3]
