Steven William Morison is a professional football manager and former footballer known for his extensive playing career as a centre-forward and his subsequent transition into management roles. After scoring the winning goal in the 2007 FA Trophy final for Stevenage Borough, the first competitive cup final played at the new Wembley Stadium, Steve Morison cemented his reputation as a formidable centre-forward. He had previously made his first-team debut for Northampton Town in 2002 and transferred to Bishop’s Stortford in November 2004, where he quickly became the club’s top goalscorer and the FA Trophy leading goalscorer in his first season (2004-05). Joining Stevenage Borough in August 2006, Morison was instrumental in their success, contributing to another FA Trophy win in 2009.
Across three seasons with the club, he scored an impressive 86 goals in 151 appearances, ranking him second on Stevenage’s all-time goalscoring list. Morison’s career advanced significantly when he joined Millwall in 2009 for £130k, helping them achieve promotion to the Championship in his inaugural season (2009-10). Following his initial success with Millwall, Morison moved to Premier League club Norwich City in 2011, before transferring to Leeds United in 2013. He subsequently returned to Millwall, first on loan and then permanently in 2015, where he continued to be a pivotal player.
He led the club to a strong position in the Isthmian League Premier Division before departing in January 2024. Immediately after, in January 2024, he was appointed manager of Sutton United, where he guided the team to a 12th-place finish in the National League. Morison’s leadership at Sutton United concluded in September 2025, further demonstrating his capability in navigating competitive league environments and achieving tangible results.
