Steven Allan 'Steve' Masterton (born 2 January 1985 in Irvine) is a Scottish football midfielder who currently plays for Scottish Junior Football Association, West Region side Hurlford United.
Masterton began his career at Kilmarnock, but didn't play for the senior team.
Masterton signed for Clyde in the summer of 2005, and made his début as a substitute in a Scottish Challenge Cup tie against Brechin City. Masterton became a fringe player in his first few months at Clyde, but got a regular place in the team, filling in for long term injury victim Paul McHale. Masterton also won his midfield battle with Roy Keane during Clyde's famous win over Celtic in the Scottish Cup, in January 2006.
Masterton is somewhat of a dead-ball expert, and the majority of his goals come direct from free kicks. He was Clyde's second top scorer in season 2006–07, scoring 8 goals.
At the end of season 2007–08 during Clyde's Scottish First Division semi final play-off first leg match at Alloa Athletic, Masterton scored what proved to be a vital. In a 2–1 defeat, he scored the equaliser with a trademark free kick just after the hour mark . Clyde went on to win 6–5 on aggregate.
On 16 May 2008, Masterton agreed to join First Division rivals Greenock Morton.
'Masty' scored his first goal for Morton in a 3–0 Challenge Cup win over Jim McInally's East Stirlingshire before doubling his Morton tally with a 25-yard free-kick in a 4–3 cup shock victory over Scottish Premier League side Hibernian. He continued his cup goal scoring exploits with the opener against Peterhead in the Scottish Cup loss at Balmoor, before opening his league tally with the equaliser first half free-kick at Cappielow in the victory over Ross County.
