He is a co-creator of the popular MirrorFootball.co.uk website, having previously edited websites including Football365.com - where he originated the infamous Mediawatch column. Steve has created and edited magazines for some of the country's biggest football clubs.

He is a regular contributor to the Mirror and to FourFourTwo magazine, for whom he has interviewed superstars including Wayne Rooney and Steven Gerrard. His longest interview, with Ian Holloway, took 10 hours during a matchday. His shortest, with Sir Alex Ferguson, lasted 90 seconds.
