Leonard James "Lenny" Pidgeley (born 7 February 1984) is an English footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Hastings United. He is a former England youth international.

Born in Twickenham, London, initially signed up by Chelsea since the opening of the 2002–03 season, he was loaned out to Watford between September 2003 and May 2004, a deal initially intended to last for two months, but extending to the end of the season. His debut Watford match was on 4 October against Crewe Alexandra, which they won 1–0, in which he came on as a substitute after the dismissal of Alec Chamberlain.

Due to Carlo Cudicini being suspended, Pidgeley was on the bench as Chelsea won the 2005 Football League Cup Final. He then made his debut for Chelsea coming on as a substitute for Cudicini in the final home game of the 2004–05 Premiership season against Charlton Athletic. This meant Pidgeley was on the pitch as Chelsea were presented with the Premier League trophy as English champions. Except for a League Cup game while on loan at Millwall, Pidgeley spent the whole of the 2005–06 season at Chelsea. He spent the season third choice behind Petr Čech and Cudicini in the pecking order at Chelsea. He was given the number 40 shirt by Chelsea, in reference to his time at Watford when they beat Watford 4–0 in an FA Cup match, with Pidgeley in goal. He made his first starting appearance for the club in the last match of the season against Newcastle United at St James' Park, after Cudicini had suffered an injury in pre-match training.
