Lee Philpott (born February 21, 1970 in Barnet) is an English former professional footballer. He played as a left winger in a career spanning twenty years, and made almost 400 league appearances. Now in non-league football, he still plays occasionally.
Philpott began his career with Peterborough United in 1986, but in three years at London Road he managed to make only four league appearances.
In 1989 he joined Cambridge United on a free transfer. He made over 100 appearances for the U's, scoring 17 goals.
The biggest move of Philpott's career occurred in 1992 when he was signed by Leicester City for £350,000. In four years at Filbert Street he made 75 appearances, finding the net on three occasions.
Philpott joined Blackpool in 1996 for £75,000, for whom he went on to make 71 appearances and score five goals in his two years at the seaside.
In 1998, Philpott joined Lincoln City on a free transfer. Two years later, he was on the move again, this time to Hull City.
The midfielder moved into non-league football with Weymouth in 2003. He spent one year with the Terras, before joining his current club, Harrogate Town, where he is now assistant manager. He was caretaker manager for a spell in February 2005 after the departure of John Reed to Stalybridge Celtic.
