Playing career

He joined Southern League Premier Division side Bideford on loan for three months on 4 August.[10][11] Harper-Penman returned to Argyle at the end of the loan and was released when his contract expired in December.[12] He rejoined Western League Premier Division club Barnstaple Town in January 2013,[13][14] and scored three goals in his first two appearances.[15][16] He moved to Frome Town in March until the end of the season,[17][18] and played in three games.[19] Harper-Penman joined Southern League Premier Division side Truro City in August, having spent time on trial there in pre-season,[20] and made one appearance later that month.[21] He returned to Barnstaple in September and scored in his first game.[22][23]
