Career & Clubs

Career

Portsmouth

Vine was born in Basingstoke, and began his career at Portsmouth, making his way through the club's youth scheme. He made his first-team debut at the age of 18, in a goalless draw with Sheffield United in December 2000. However, he struggled to break into the side on a regular basis and was loaned out to Division Two side Brentford for the 2002–03 season. Vine enjoyed a successful campaign at Griffin Park, netting his first ever goal on his debut in a 2–0 win at Huddersfield Town, and going on to score 13 further goals in 44 starts for the Bees. Despite his impressive season, he was again loaned out, this time to Colchester United for the 2003–04 campaign; he scored 10 league goals in 30 starts. For the third year running, Vine spent an entire season away from Portsmouth on loan, this time at Luton Town for the 2004–05 season. Vine's nine goals helped the Hatters clinch the League One title. Despite this relative lack of goals for a striker during a season, a section in the Luton News newspaper showed that Vine was the "King of Assists" – one of the main reasons for the Hatters' success.

Luton Town

Vine signed for Luton for an undisclosed fee, reported as £250,000, on 4 July 2005. In his first season after his permanent move to the club, he scored 10 goals in 30 games after missing the start of the season with a back injury. Again, he was near the top of the assist charts. Vine's good form continued the following season, netting 12 goals in 26…

Managerial career

Hartley Wintney

On 20 January 2023, Vine was appointed manager of former club Hartley Wintney. On 19 September 2023, it was announced that the club and Vine had parted ways.
