Steven William "Steve" Elliott (born 29 October 1978) is an English professional footballer who plays as a defender. He's currently assistant to caretaker manager Russell Milton at Cheltenham Town.
Born in Derby, Derbyshire, Elliott came though the ranks at Pride Park and made his first team debut in the League Cup in September 1997. He made a total of 72 league appearances for Derby County, including 14 as a substitute and one goal against Wimbledon. In November 2003 he moved to Blackpool on loan. The deal later became permanent.
After making his move permanent, Elliott made 28 appearances for Blackpool including the victorious 2004 Football League Trophy Final at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff.
Elliott then signed for Bristol Rovers in the summer of 2004. He quickly established himself as a regular part of the Rovers defence. He made 40 appearances in his first season and scored twice, before going on to make 45 appearances in his second season again scoring twice. His third season in Bristol saw Rovers reach the Johnstone's Paint Trophy Final and League Two play-off Final, losing in Cardiff but winning promotion in London.
In June 2007, Elliott signed a two-year extension to his contract, taking his contract up to 2010. The 2007–08 season saw Rovers reach the quarter-finals of the FA Cup for only the second time in their history. Elliott however missed the fifth round win against Southampton and quarter-final defeat to West Bromwich Albion having suffered an injury early in the fourth round replay against Fulham.
