Stephen Glass

Aberdeen

Glass started his career with Aberdeen where he was regarded as one of Scotland's brightest prospects. He broke through into the first team during a relegation struggle in the 1994–95 season, and scored goals in the final league fixture and in both legs of the subsequent playoff to maintain his club's top-division status. In Aberdeen's League Cup victory against Dundee in November 1995, he set up both goals in the Dons' 2–0 success. His performance earned him the man-of-the-match award (a mountain bike) as well as a winner's medal.

Newcastle United

Glass moved to English Premier League team Newcastle United in 1998, for a fee of £650,000. In his first season at St James' Park, Glass made 29 appearances in all competitions, but was hampered by an injury in February. He did however recover to make a substitute appearance in the 1999 FA Cup Final against Manchester United at Wembley. Injury, particularly a serious knee problem, blighted his second season in the Premiership. By the time Glass had regained full fitness, manager Bobby Robson had decided that Glass was no more than a solid squad player. Glass played a bit-part role in Newcastle's following two campaigns, making only six league starts out of a possible seventy-six, although he did score the equaliser in a 1–1 home draw with Manchester United in December 2000. He left the club at the end of the 2000–01 season.

Atlanta United

After becoming an academy coach of Atlanta United FC in August 2018, Glass made the move to become the head coach of the club's USL Championship side Atlanta United 2 on 30 January 2019. On July 27, 2020, Glass was named interim coach of Atlanta United, replacing Frank de Boer, who had departed the club by mutual agreement a few days prior. Glass returned to his role at Atlanta United 2 after Gabriel Heinze was appointed the full-time coach of the club's first-team in January 2021.

Aberdeen

Glass was appointed Aberdeen manager in March 2021, succeeding Derek McInnes. He was sacked by Aberdeen in February 2022, following a Scottish Cup defeat at Motherwell. The team were in ninth place in the Premiership at the time of his departure.

Memphis 901

On 22 November 2022, Glass was named head coach for USL Championship club Memphis 901. Glass remained manager of Memphis until the club folded on 13 November 2024.
