McAteer has regularly appeared for the Liverpool legends who play in various charity games around the world. In 2005, with the help of friends, McAteer organised Tsunami Soccer Aid which generated over half a million pounds. This was used by Save The Children, Merlin and other charities to help rebuild the worst affected areas of the disaster.
McAteer now works in the media with Asia-based ESPN Star Sports. On 15 June 2009, he was appointed assistant manager to John Barnes at Tranmere Rovers. On 9 October 2009, McAteer was sacked along with Barnes after a run of just two league wins from 11 games.

“All those who dwell in the depths find their happiness in being like flying fish for once and playing on the uppermost crests of the waves. What they value most in things is that they have a surface, their “epidermality”Msit venia verbo.”
