Lee Thompson

Career

He made almost 100 appearances in Football League Two for Boston United between 2002 and 2005. Thompson joined Conference National club Kidderminster Harriers in July 2005 and, after a slow start to the season, established himself in the first-team, making 34 appearances for Kidderminster in the 2005-2006 season. However, he was one of seven players released at the end of a disappointing season for Kidderminster, and he joined Worksop Town, signing a one-year contract.

He made 41 appearances for Worksop Town in the 2006-2007 season.

In July 2007, Thompson rejoined Boston United, now in the Conference North, with manager Tommy Taylor saying, "Lee is someone I"ve known for a while and I"ll go a long way to find a better player than him." He made 16 appearances for Boston in the 2007-2008 season. Lee now plays his football at Worksop Parramore.
