From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Steve Torpey (born Kirkby, September 16, 1981) is a footballer with Stalybridge Celtic.

A midfielder or forward, Torpey started out as a Liverpool trainee, spending three years there and representing England at schoolboy level before moving to Port Vale in 2001. After making just one appearance there he moved to Prescot Cables, helping the club to win two promotions in as many years, then spent four months at Altrincham before moving back to Prescot in February 2005.

He joined FC United of Manchester, an off-shoot of Liverpool's rivals Manchester United, in 2005 and scored the club's first ever goal, in a friendly match against Flixton in August 2005. After a successful first season, he moved into the Conference in August 2006 with Halifax. He left the Shay in February 2008, after being told he was not going to be given a new contract, so he joined Conference North side Stalybridge Celtic.
