Eric John Paton (born 1 August 1978 in Glasgow) is a Scottish professional footballer.

East end united 2016–2018

Paton has developed into a right back, a position that ex-Queens manager John Connolly favoured the former right sided midfielder in. However his versatility has also seen him deployed on the right-back of a midfield five, just inside the wide left man and at left back.

Paton joined Dundee in June 2008, after he signed a pre-contract agreement with the club on 24 January 2008.[1] On 15 October 2010, Paton had his contract terminated by Dundee, a victim of the club entering administration.[2]
