dont_do_it_doug. Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 This was a massive step up for Stevens. I had heard that he was doing ok in the lower divisions, and I would say he is delighted to have been given an opportinity to play in those divisions, instead of in Irish football, where I suspect the salaries are much lower. Good luck to him, nice to see someone get an unexpected break. Why unexpected? He's a decent player, not quite premier league quality but a good footballer regardless. He'll have a career.

HanoiVillan Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Yeah exactly, he's not that bad. Anyone reading this thread would think he had cloven hooves or something. He's a probably League One level footballer, it's hardly something to be ashamed of, and yes, it was a cheap, no-risk punt. No hard feelings, good luck to the lad. Yeah exactly, he's not that bad.

I just mean he would not have expected to be given a chance by a Premier League club. Which then leads to him having a good and probably lucrative career in the lower divisions.

Mantis Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 For a League 2 club I think he's a damn good signing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodders0223 Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 He is way better than league 2. Still, should play 35+ games next season and that is one he desperately needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobzy Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 He is way better than league 2. Still, should play 35+ games next season and that is one he desperately needs. Turned down League One clubs to move to Pompey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudevillaisnice Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Hopefully gets his career back on track. A good move for both parties. He will no doubt get some football there and the club are getting a very good player at that level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enda Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Enda an era. I think there's a decent chance we'll see him in the Premier League again. I'd say the odds are about even stevens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Amazed we handed a league of Ireland player a 4 year deal, not that he was a huge drain on the wage bill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 we handed a 35 year old a 5 year deal and a goal shy 31 year old 3.5 years cant be that surprised Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KJT123 Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Has just joined Sheffield United from Portsmouth. Pompey fans are absolutely gutted - he must have turned out a decent player! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pompey fans are absolutely gutted - he must have turned out a decent player! He got their POTY from leftback. By all accounts has acquitted himself very well since leaving here. I always thought he never really disgraced himself even when he played for us. Just that he never particularly stood out. But given he went straight from Shamrock Rovers into our side that was no disgrace. It'll be interesting to see how he gets on in the Chumpionship now next season 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
