| Steve is one of the longest serving players at the club having joined halfway through the now defunct Black Horse Dynamoes first season after being recruited by Wilf Williams and therefore is a founder member of the Pride Of Bilbao. He also holds the worthless title of Club Chairman, after being the first club secretary (badly). As a player Steve is a central midfielder, who generally plays as the more defensive in the midfield pair.He posseses very good stamina and a high work-rate, this combined with hard tackling and being one of our stronger players in the air makes him ideal for a holding role. He has the weakness of holding back to often and needs to commit to getting forward more as he can drive the team forward and is capable of scoring more goals from midfield, something that the 2003-04 squad have lacked. dispite his lack of pace he can be a good attacking force. He is passionate and one of the leaders of the side, sometimes to much, which has led to his main downfall his disaplinary record !. Steve has by far the worst record at the club and has been sent off in each of the last 4 seasons. Most of this is for verbal indescretions rather than sything tackles. This must improve, even just for the benefit of his bank account. It can cost us points and be a weakness to the team. In otherwords keep his mouth shut and concentrate on playing.
His highlight of the 2003-04 season was an absolute wonder goal against Holmes Place this 25 yard rising volley was one of the best in the clubs history!
