Career

Stevens was appointed player-manager of Millwall in May 1998 on the dismissal of Billy Bonds, and named teammate Alan McLeary as his co-manager. They remained in charge until their controversial dismissal on 17 September 2000 after failing to get Millwall promoted back to Division One,[2] a feat which was achieved eight months later under successor Mark McGhee, with the team that Stevens and McLeary had built.
Despite no longer being with the club, in April 2001 Millwall awarded Stevens a testimonial,[3] culminating in a friendly with Tottenham Hotspur in August 2001.[4]
Stevens later managed non-league Fisher Athletic until resigning in July 2002.[5]
