Clapham made an excellent start to the 2000-01 season at Ipswich Town playing either at left wing back or on the left side of midfield depending on the team tactics.
He retained his place in the starting line-up until dropping back to the bench for the home game against Tottenham Hotspur at the end of the year.
His place in the side came under increasing threat in the second half of the season, firstly from Martijn Reuser who was preferred in midfield, then from Chris Makin for the wing-back slot and he spent much of the final two months of the campaign on the bench.
He was not despondent however, and made some telling contributions when he was given the opportunity.
Clapham is particularly dangerous going forward and is an excellent crosser of the ball, creating numerous scoring opportunities for his forwards.
He is also a bit of a dead-ball specialist, taking corners and free kicks around the box, as typified by his goal at Bradford City when he curled a free kick over the wall and into the net.
He is the son of the former Shrewsbury Town and Chester player Graham Clapham.
Clapham joined Wolverhampton Wanderers in July 2006 with a two-year contract, but was made available for transfer in May 2007.
His monthly contract at Notts County was extended to the end of the season in January 2009.
Clapham joined Lincoln City in July 2010 with a one-year contract.
