In season 2010/11, Slough again reached the playoffs, but this time lost to Hitchin in the semi-final.
Steve also had successful spells as manager of Chesham United, Berkhamstead - where he guided them to the F.A. Vase final at Villa Park - and Hemel, where he guided them to promotion to the Southern Premier League.
