[edit] Club career
Jevons is a product of the Everton F.C. Academy and became one of the stars of their youth side, scoring 55 goals in 91 youth team games and winning the FA Youth Cup in 1998. He failed to make much impact on the first team however, and on July 2001, he was sold to Grimsby Town for £250,000. Whilst at Grimsby, Jevons found his scoring boots and hit 24 goals before being sent out on loan to Hull City in September 2002 for financial reasons. He remained on the other side of the Humber until the end of that season, scoring 4 goals, before returning to Grimsby. He joined Yeovil Town in a deal worth £600,000 in June 2004 and became a leading scorer for the club - in 2005, he was joint top scorer in all four divisions with 27 league goals.
He joined Bristol City after a free transfer from Yeovil Town in the summer of 2006.
On 22 November 2007 he went to Huddersfield Town on a month's loan. He made his debut two days later, as a substitute in Town's 1-0 loss against Leyton Orient at the Galpharm Stadium. On December 1, he scored his first two goals in a 3-0 against his former club, Grimsby Town to send Huddersfield through to the third round of the FA Cup. His first league goal for the Terriers came against his parent club's rivals, Bristol Rovers. Then on Christmas Eve, Jevons's loan was extended until 19 January 2008.[1] However, on 10 January Jevons was signed for £100,000, that could double to £200,000 depending on appearances and whether Town win promotion, on a deal that takes him until summer 2010.[2]
