Career
Grundy qualified as a
schoolteacher and played part-time for Wigan Athletic in the Cheshire League, scoring eight goals in 71 appearances for the club between 1963 and 1967.[2] In November 1967 he played for Wigan against Bury in a Lancashire Cup game, scoring and impressing Bury manager Les Shannon to the extent that he was signed by Bury the following week.[1]
He went full-time in January 1968 and was part of the Bury side that won promotion from Division Four that season.
Released by Bury at the end of the 1970–71 season, Grundy joined

While managing Glossop and Mossley, Grundy was the landlord of a pub in Glossop.[1] He later emigrated to Spain.[1]
