Steve Hamer is the chairman of Bristol Rovers Football Club. He was appointed to the position in February 2016,[1] having previously been chairman of Swansea City from 1997 to 2000.[2]
He played as a central defender in non-League football in the 1970s for Carshalton Athletic (where he was a team mate of future England manager Roy Hodgson), Tooting & Mitcham United and Bromley,[3] and was also joint player-manager of Corinthian-Casuals from 1976 to 1977 with Paul Sussums.[4]
He was sacked as Swansea's chairman in September 2000 after expressing concerns about the club's floatation on the Alternative Investment Market.[5]
