Kevin Miller (born 15 March 1969 in Falmouth, Cornwall, England) is an English football goalkeeper, currently playing for Bodmin Town FC in the South West Peninsula League.[1]
Miller has had stints at Exeter City, Birmingham City, Crystal Palace, Barnsley, Bristol Rovers and Derby County (on loan), over an eighteen year period. During this time he also spent three seasons at Watford, earning the Player of the Season award twice.
His move to Crystal Palace from Watford in June 1997 saw the most expensive fee of his career being paid; £1.5million. He had been expected to sign for Nottingham Forest but the East Midlands club failed to agree a fee.[2]
He initially retired from football in August 2005, but in February 2006 he was signed by Southampton manager George Burley, whose side was short on goalkeepers, with Bartosz Białkowski out with an injury.[3] Miller was seen as cover for Paul Smith.
To many people's surprise, Miller displaced Smith in the first team and played the final seven games of Southampton's 2005-06 season, helping the team to five wins and a draw. This form was appreciated and the club offered him a one year extension on his contract, which he accepted.
In January 2007, he signed a one-month loan deal with League Two strugglers Torquay United,[4] making his debut on 26 January 2007 in the 4-1 win at home to Grimsby Town, United's first win in 20 league games. He returned to Southampton at the end of the loan spell. He was released by Southampton in May 2007.
