Career
Stevenson captained the Clyde Under-17 team during the 2008–09 season, and after impressing for the Reserve team, he signed a professional contract with the club in February 2009.[1]
Stevenson scored against Celtic in the Glasgow Cup in April 2009,[2] and was included in the first team squad for the following weekend's fixture against Queen of the South.[3] He made his debut in that game, coming on as a 53rd minute substitute in a heavy 7–1 defeat.[4] In doing so, he became the youngest player ever to play a competitive game for Clyde, at the age of 16 years and 245 days, beating the previous record held by Michael Doherty.[5]
In October 2009 it was revealed that Stevenson was invited, along with teammate Steve Howarth, to a trial with Rangers.[6] Stevenson finished the season in fine form, and won the Scottish Football League Young Player of the Month award for April 2010.[7] He was released by Clyde in May 2011.[8]
