Wimbledon/Milton Keynes Dons
Harding began his career at Wimbledon and signed terms with them in October 2001. He made his debut in November 2003, and made 42 league appearances before signing a new two-year deal in August 2005.[1] In November 2005, Harding was loaned to Forest Green Rovers for two months.[2] Injuries limited him to just 10 appearances for the now renamed MK Dons over the remainder of the 2005–6 season.
The following season, Harding was loaned out to the Conference National sides Aldershot Town and Grays Athletic.[3] At the end of the season he was released by the MK Dons and he returned to Aldershot Town as a trialist.

He was also one of five Aldershot Town players, that were named in the Conference Select XI Team of the Year.[5] At the end of the season, Harding signed a new two-year contract, which would keep him at the Recreation Ground until the end of the 2009–10 season.[6]
