Scott Bevan (born 19 September 1979 in Southampton, England) is an English footballer and currently plays as a goalkeeper for League Two side Shrewsbury Town.

Football career

Scott started his football career with Southampton as an associated schoolboy player before turning professional in 1997. He never made any first team appearances for Southampton although he did get a lot of experience out on loan at Ayr United, Stoke City, Woking (on two separate occasions), Huddersfield Town and Wycombe Wanderers.

In March 2004, Bevan joined Milton Keynes Dons from Southampton where he made 17 appearances over two seasons.

During his time with Milton Keynes Dons he found himself out on loan again, but this time with Nationwide Conference side Tamworth.

He put in memorable performances in Tamworth's FA Cup run whilst on-loan with The Lambs, which included two ties against Stoke City, but his career and life was turned upside down after he sustained a serious kidney injury in a league fixture at Forest Green Rovers in January 2006. After undergoing an operation to remove a kidney that left many thinking he might never play competitive football again, Bevan showed remarkable recovery and resilience to once again make himself available.

Bevan was signed by Kidderminster Harriers in August 2006, despite Tamworth's interest in the talented goalkeeper. In January 2008, and after 18 months at Aggborough, Bevan was signed by Shrewsbury for an undisclosed fee, in a deal that saw Chris Mackenzie move in the opposite direction.
