Career
From Stevenage, Lathrope began his youth career at Cambridge United, though moved on to Norwich City"s academy in 2006-2007. Before making his professional debut, he scored twice for the first team in friendly matches, the first in a benefit match for former Norwich player Shaun Carey, versus Carey"s King"s Lynn teammates in October 2006. When Norwich then revisited King"s Lynn for a pre-season friendly in July 2007, Lathrope repeated the trick with another goal.
Lathrope signed a professional contract with the Canaries in January 2008 and was given a squad number of 36.
In November 2009 he joined Conference South club Bishop"s Stortford on a two-month loan. In May 2010 he was released by the Canaries, and signed with Torquay United in July 2010.
