Kevin Roberts (born August 17 1989, Liverpool) is a professional footballer with Chester City. He has played as both a defender and midfielder.
After appearing in several pre-season friendlies ahead of 2007–08, Roberts made his competitive first team debut for Chester as a substitute against Nottingham Forest in the Carling Cup first round tie on August 14 2007 at home. After the game ended goalless, Roberts braveley stepped up to take a penalty in the shoot-out but saw his effort saved as Chester went out 4–2 on penalties. Four days later he made his Football League debut in a 2–1 win at Rochdale, when he played the whole game.
Kevin's rise to prominence continued on September 1 2007, when he came off the bench to score Chester's equaliser in a 1–1 draw at Rotherham United. His next goal enhanced his reputation further, as he scored a stunning volley in Chester's 2–2 derby draw with Wrexham on November 25 2007. He went on to play regularly in the side for the remainder of the campaign, with several youth team contemporaries such as Paul McManus, Shaun Kelly and Glenn Rule joining him in the side.
