After several cup wins and league successes he left Thornton in 2005. He was appointed Chairman of Glenrothes Juniors in 2006 when the Warout Stadium team were the first winners of the newly formed Premier League.

In his spare time Steven enjoys playing golf and bowls and holidaying with his family.
