Career & Clubs

Career

Cambridge United

Revell is a graduate of the Cambridge United youth set-up, where he struggled to establish himself during his stint at the Abbey Stadium.

Kettering Town (loan)

Discovering his first team opportunities at Cambridge were limited, Revell spent a loan spell at then Conference National club Kettering Town.

Braintree Town

Soon afterwards, Revell left Cambridge in 2004 where he made the decision to drop out of the Football League by joining Braintree Town. During his time at Braintree, Revell managed to find the net 35 times for the club, where he managed to help them gain promotion to the Conference South during the 2005–06 season.

Brighton & Hove Albion

Revell was signed by Brighton & Hove Albion in June 2006, with manager Mark McGhee saying he wouldn't be "a major signing in the supporters' eyes, but he could turn out to be the best signing". On 1 January 2008, Revell scored his first professional hat-trick as Brighton defeated AFC Bournemouth 3–2 at the Withdean.

Southend

On 30 January 2008, Revell made his move from Brighton to Southend on a two-and-a-half-year contract for £150,000. Steve Tilson had been a long admirer of Revell and tried to sign him in August 2007 transfer window. On 16 August 2008, Revell scored his first league goal for Southend in a 1–1 draw with Millwall at The New Den. Revell scored his first home league goal for the Shrimpers in a 2–1 win over Swindon Town at Roots Hall on 18 October…

Managerial career

On 16 February 2020, Revell was appointed first team manager of Stevenage until the end of the 2019–20 season following the resignation of Graham Westley, with Stevenage seven points adrift at the bottom of League Two. He managed two games, losing both, before the season was terminated prematurely due to the COVID-19 pandemic in the United Kingdom; with bottom club Stevenage initially relegated, but reprieved due to points deductions for Macclesfield Town. Stevenage's struggles continued into the 2020–21 season as the team were in last place with only two wins in their first 18 matches. However, from Boxing Day on the club won 10 matches, drew nine times and only lost five games, finishing in 14th place in the league table. Revell was sacked as Stevenage manager on 14 November 2021, following a poor run of results which saw them gain only 7 points from 12 games, leaving them only two points above the relegation zone. Revell re-joined Stevenage in early January 2022 as a coach for the youth academy. In the off-season he was promoted to first team coach by manager Steve Evans, whom he played for at Rotherham. On 17 April 2024, following the shock departure of Evans to Rotherham United, Revell was appointed interim manager for the remaining two fixtures of the season. On 9 May 2024, he was given the job on a permanent basis.
