Primus also agreed to take on an ambassadorial and advisory role to help guide emerging talent at Portsmouth, as well as a playing role. It was more about the people, doing the right things and I spoke to Marieanne (Spacey-Cale, manager) a couple of times and always had good conversations and I’ve heard great things about the team, about the club, the staff, everyone. Finally he talks about how his Christian faith impacted how he looked at his career and how it affected the way he played. However, he suffered another muscle injury, and with further competition for places in the form of Dean Chandler and Richard Rufus, he failed to make a single appearance for Charlton in the 1993–94 season.

Primus was promised an improved contract, however no such contract was given to him over the summer. Once again, he was runner-up in the Player of the Season award, this time to the goalkeeper Maik Taylor. Charlton Athletic arranged a friendly match with Pretoria and Primus was offered the chance to join the Charlton associate schoolboys which he took. His next appearance for Barnet, against Scarborough, was described as the "worst performance of [his] career" in his autobiography. Linvoy released his autobiography in 2007 entitled “Transformed” and as well as being joint founder is actively involved with the Christian Charity “Faith and Football”.For the last two years of his school life, Primus traveled to Greenwich twice a week to train with the team; in addition to this he played matches on a Sunday against the schoolboy teams of clubs such as Maidstone United and Dover Athletic.

Linvoy Stephen Primus MBE (born 14 September 1973) is an English former professional footballer who played as a defender.

His parents are practising Christians who took Linvoy to church and Sunday school when he was young.He did not get his Portsmouth career off to a good start, scoring an own goal on his debut away at Sheffield United.

His services to football and tireless charity work earned him his title – and its work he’s continued ever since, for charities including Christians in Sport and Faith and Football. Primus attributed his desire to become a footballer from watching Ricky Villa's winning goal for Tottenham Hotspur against Manchester City in the 1981 FA Cup Final Replay. He began his career as a young professional at Charlton Athletic before moving to play for Barnet and Reading before ending up on the south coast.At his former club Portsmouth, he founded a prayer group which has included teammates such as Nwankwo Kanu, Sean Davis and Benjani. After the conclusion of the season, Primus fell out with Rix as he was unsure about whether Rix thought he had a future at the club. Portsmouth were still near the relegation zone after a poor run of form that also saw Primus being sent off for the first time in his career for a foul on Fulham's Louis Saha. By the end of the 2002–03 season he had become a vital member of the side that won the Division One title, winning the Portsmouth fans' player of the season as well as the PFA accolade for Division One. Primus partnered Keith McPherson in defence but Reading started the season poorly with just one point from the first six games despite Primus saying "I played well from the word go".
