    If it's Waterford United's Stephen Grant who played and scored in that Madiera U-21 thingy last year then he had a falling out with Gareth Cronin towards the end of the season and is no longer with the club. He was not having the best of seasons but there was a lot of expectancy on his young shoulders to carry a poor team in what was really his first full season but he has still got a lot of potential and a decent future in the game, hopefully NOT away from the RSC.

    If it's the other Stephen Grant who used to play for the Blues a few years back before fecking off to Rovers (by no means a promising young player at about 30), then the answer is golf/ modelling/ leather trousers and a poncy furniture business or somesort.

    Things really went wrong when he left Waterford didn't they Super bloke, and he actually played for free for a period
    False hope is worse than no hope. Ask Sligo.

    Is it the blonde bloke from Tullamore? He played for Galway United and scored a fair few goals in a handful of games before fecking off to join Shamrock Rovers and then Waterford. I think he might have had a spell with Shels too.

    I think a spell at Waterford would be enough to turn anyone off football for life...

    Correct. Scored the first goal against Odra in 2003. Now a professional golfer. Family absolutely minted.

    Did he not join Shels after United?

    Scored something like 4 goals in 11 games but played v well. Allegedly Eric hated him coz he took the limelight with his blonde hair and silver boots
    I phoned the speaking clock to hear a voice speak, it said - "At the tone you will be very much alone"

    I'd be pretty sure the Steven Grant the poster is talking about is the Waterford lad who played for the Irish u21s in Madeira - the posters name is johnville and they are a team in Waterford

    You're correct Joema.I'd agree with Dick Longs comments.Too much was expected of him this season in a poor team and he failed to deliver.Hopefully he'll get a chance again in the Eircom League to show what he can do as he's still young.
