Lee Charles Philip Harper (born 30 October 1971) is an English former footballer, and manager who played as a goalkeeper from 1993 until 2010. He notably played in the Premier League for Arsenal. After beginning his career with Sittingbourne he went on to play in the Football League for Queens Park Rangers, Walsall, Northampton Town and Milton Keynes Dons. He finished his career in Non-league where he was briefly player-manager of Kettering Town. ==Playing career== Born in Chelsea, London, Harper started his career at non-League Sittingbourne, before being signed by Arsenal in June 1994.〔 He cost Arsenal £150,000 – one of the biggest fees paid for a non-league player at the time. He was third-choice goalkeeper at the club, behind Vince Bartram and David Seaman, and only made one first team appearance for the Highbury side, in a 2–0 FA Premier League win over Southampton on 15 March 1997. In the summer of 1997 he moved to Queens Park Rangers (QPR), and in four seasons made 118 league appearances. He moved to Walsall in 2001 after QPR were relegated to the Second Division, but made only three appearances in his single season there. He moved to Northampton Town in 2002 and became first-choice goalkeeper there, recording over 150 league appearances. He moved to League Two team Milton Keynes Dons on loan in October 2006, where he helped to repair the team's poor defending record, with a significant reduction in goals conceded. This successful loan spell resulted in Harper signing a permanent deal in January 2007. He was released at the end of the 2006–07 season in May. He signed for Conference North team Kettering Town in August 2007. He made 40 appearances in all competitions in the 2007–08 season as Kettering won the Conference North title.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url = http://www.sportbox.tv/football/players/player.php?playerid=14855&season=2008 )〕 He made 54 appearances in all competitions in the 2008–09 season and he signed a new contract with the club in July 2009.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url = http://www.soccerbase.com/squad_season.sd?seasonid=138&teamid=1428 )〕 He now runs a goalkeeping course at a local pitch in Reading, England. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lee Harper」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
