Initial review:

Lead

 * Matty would appear to be a common hypocorism which should not be included, per WP:ALTNAME.
 * Perhaps mention what league Ebbsfleet were playing in when he joined them on a permanent basis as later it mentions he returned to the Football League.

Early career

 * The two-year scholarship is not mentioned in the reference at the end of the sentence, it only mentions that he joined the club at the age of fifteen.
 * "all of which from the substitute's bench", should that be came from or were from?

Loan spells

 * "Following a brief return to the first-team set-up at Scunthorpe with two brief substitute appearances in December 2013", bit of repetition there with brief being used twice.
 * Link the first use of Hat-trick.
 * Link Bromley.

Stevenage

 * "In doing so he became Stevenage manager Darren Sarll's first signing as full-time manager of Stevenage", a bit of repetition of Stevenage could probably just use the club or something similar for the second mention.
 * "England's top four tiers in opening months of that calendar year", should there be a the between in and opening?

Honours

 * First award isn't referenced.
