Rushden & Diamonds

Born in Kettering, Dempster began his career playing in the Football League for Rushden & Diamonds.

Oxford United

In 2006 Dempster signed for Oxford United during the January transfer window.

Kettering Town

From 2007 he has been playing for Kettering Town, where he captained the side to promotion to the Conference Premier, and was awarded Players' Player and Supporters' player.

Crawley Town

Following a string of impressive performances for Kettering Town, Dempster was signed by Crawley Town for an undisclosed fee in the 2011 transfer window, in the middle of their promotion-winning season that saw Crawley elevated to the Football League.

Mansfield Town

In May 2012, Dempster was released by Crawley after being deemed surplus to requirements following a handful of League 2 appearances that year and a loan spell at Conference Premier club Mansfield Town. He signed for Mansfield permanently for the 2012/13 season. After an injury and a spell on loan at Tamworth, Dempster established himself as a regular in the side that went on to win the Conference Premier on the last day of the season. Dempster signed a new contract at The Stags for 2013/14, making a return to the Football League. He has captained the team in the absence of Adam Murray. He accepted the position of Academy manager at Mansfield at the end of the 2014–15 season.

International career

Dempster is a former Scotland under-21 international, and has also represented Scotland at under-20 level. He is eligible to play for Scotland because his father is from Ayrshire.

He was also selected for Paul Fairclough's England National XI side back in 2006.
