Steve Howard (born May 10, 1976, Durham, England) is an English footballer currently playing for Luton Town F.C.
Steve began his career at non-league Tow Law Town before moving to Hartlepool United F.C. in 1995 and moving on to Northampton Town F.C. as their record signing for £120,000 in February 1999. Luton signed him for £50,000 on March 22, 2001 with another £25,000 due if Luton avoided relegation which they did not. The 2001-2002 season was a good one for Howard as he won the Division 3 Golden Boot with 24 goals including 19 in 19 matches after Christmas. His goals certainly contributed to Luton's promotion to Division 2 and in their first season back there he was once again leading goal scorer with 23 goals, as he was once again the following season with 16 goals.
Steve is a bustling, traditional centre forward at 6'2" (188 cm) and over 14 st (91 kg), his aggression occasionally gets in him in trouble with the match officials but makes him a favourite of the supporters.
Steve continues to lead Luton's attack in 2005/06 when they have been promoted to the Coca Cola Championship.
