Steve Buckley (born October 16 1953 in Eastwood, England) was an English footballer. His brother Alan Buckley and nephew Adam Buckley also played professionally. His son, Thomas Steven Buckley, is now trying to follow in the footsteps of his father and currently plays for Long Eaton United under 16's as a full back.

A committed full-back, Steve began his career as an apprentice with Nottingham Forest before moving into the non-league circuit with the likes of Ilkeston Town, Borrowash Victoria and Burton Albion.

In 1974 he was snapped up by Luton Town where he spent four seasons before moving to Derby County. At Derby he was twice voted player-of-the-season, winning the award for the 1979-1980 and 1981-1982 seasons. Despite being ever present in his final two seasons at Derby, Steve was surprisingly released in the summer of 1986 and linked up with Lincoln City. His time at Lincoln was eventful with the club becoming the first to suffer relegation out of the Football League before returning triumphantly twelve months later. Upon their return to the Football League, Steve found his opportunities limited to the occasion appearance on the substitutes bench and moved on to Boston United.
