Steven Alexander Penney (born 6 January 1964) is a former Northern Ireland international footballer who played as a right winger.
Penney started his career with hometown Ballymena United, before moving to England with Brighton & Hove Albion in 1983. Penney spent 8 seasons playing for Brighton in the second and third tier of English football before a single season cameo with Heart of Midlothian in 1991–92. After a similarly short spell with Burnley, a serious knee injury forced him into early retirement.
