[3] Devine was Barnet's top scorer for three seasons and in 1996 he was offered a trial at Premiership club West Ham United.
During the 2002–03 season, Devine began to fall out of favour with Wycombe manager Lawrie Sanchez and this led to the player requesting a transfer away from the club.
Sanchez felt that Devine was no longer the same player since his injury and accepted a £70,000 offer from Exeter City, with the deal being concluded in January 2003.
After that season, Devine left England and signed for the New Zealand Knights making just seven appearances before club was dissolved in January 2007.
[4] Devine also played as an Irish B international in a team that included Robbie Keane and Damien Duff in February 1998.
