Steven John Thomson (born 23 January 1978) is a Scottish footballer who plays for Conference South side Dover Athletic.

Thomson, a midfielder, previously played for English clubs Crystal Palace, Peterborough United, Brighton & Hove Albion and Scottish team Falkirk where he later became the club captain.

Thomson scored four goals during his spell at Palace. His first strike came against Leicester City in the League Cup in September 1999. The following season, Palace drew Leicester in the League Cup again, and this time Palace emerged victorious 3–0 against the Premier League side and League Cup holders. Thomson will be especially remembered by Crystal Palace fans for the stunning strike he scored in this game. Later that season he scored against Sunderland in the FA Cup before finally scoring his first and only league goal for Palace against Wolverhampton Wanderers in September 2002.

He joined Brighton & Hove Albion on 14 January 2008, making his debut in the 1–1 draw with Huddersfield Town. Thomson left Brighton a year later for 'family reasons' and moved back to Scotland, signing a two-and-a-half year contract with SPL side St Mirren.
