Christopher Nicholas "Chris" Day (born 28 July 1975) is an English professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Stevenage.
Day started his career at Tottenham Hotspur, where he spent five years, making one Premier League appearance for the North London side. He joined Crystal Palace for a fee of £225,000 in July 1996, whom he played regularly for throughout the 1996–97 season. The following season Day signed for Watford, but only played twice in two seasons at the club. However, during the 1999–2000 season, he made 11 appearances for the club in the Premier League. He spent a further season at the club, before joining Lincoln City on a three-month deal in December 2000. On return to his parent club, he was released, and later joined Queens Park Rangers, spending three and a half years at the club – whilst also having brief spells on loan at Aylesbury United and Preston North End respectively.
He left QPR in 2005, and signed for Oldham Athletic ahead of the 2005–06 season. He played for the club for a season before joining Millwall in the summer of 2006. After two seasons with Millwall, Day signed for his local club, Stevenage, on a free transfer in August 2008. He was part of the club's successful FA Trophy campaign during the 2008–09 season, as well as playing an instrumental role in the Hertfordshire club earning promotion to the Football League for the first time in the club's history the following season. During the 2010–11 season, Day helped guide the club to back-to-back promotions following their sixth-place finish and subsequent League Two play-off victory in May 2011. Day has also represented the England U21 squad six times between 1996 and 1997.
