Stefan Steve Payne (born 10 August 1991) is an English semi-professional footballer who plays for Dover Athletic as a striker. == Career == Payne played for Croydon youth team during the 2008–09 season and broke into the first team towards the tail end of the campaign and impressed Sutton United officials during a youth league game against the team. In the summer of 2009, Payne signed a contract with Sutton for the 2009–10 season. He made an immediate impact, scoring a hat-trick in the club's first league game of the season, a 4–0 win over Margate. He quickly attracted attention from Football League scouts. In September 2009, Fulham offered Payne and Sutton a contract. It was thought to be worth a six-figure-sum for Sutton. Although Fulham could not officially sign a player outside the transfer window, Payne joined the reserve squad in October. He played many games for the reserve team but did not break into the first team. During the 2010 close-season, Gillingham manager Andy Hessenthaler revealed his eagerness to sign Payne, eventually joining Gillingham on a free transfer in June 2010, signing a two-year contract. Payne played several pre-season friendlies and made his first professional football appearance in the first league game of the season, against Cheltenham Town. In February 2011, Payne went to Braintree Town on a one-month loan, and scored a hat-trick in his second appearance to help beat Basingstoke Town 5–2.〔http://www.kentonline.co.uk/kentonline/sport/2011/february/23/stefan_payne.aspx〕 Payne scored his first goal for Gillingham in the 6–1 away win over Hereford United on 17 September 2011. On 27 January 2012, he signed for Aldershot Town, and in February the club's official website announced that he had been sent out on loan to Sutton United until the end of the season. Aldershot manager Dean Holdsworth said that Payne needed to play regular football. But on 22 February, the ''Sutton Guardian'' announced that Payne's contract at Aldershot had been cancelled and that Sutton had got the player for nothing. Payne signed in August 2013 for AFC Hornchurch in the Isthmian League, scoring twice on his debut away at Dulwich Hamlet. On 3 June 2014, Payne signed for Dover Athletic. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Stefan Payne」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
