Player profile

Liverpool-born full-back Hignett's solitary first-team appearance came in the final League fixture of the 1964/65 season, when Bill Shankly played a largely reserve side at Wolverhampton only five days before the FA Cup final with Leeds United. Hignett moved for free to Chester in the summer of 1966 along with John Sealey who also made his only Liverpool appearance against Wolves. Hignett only played six games for Chester in the Fourth Division before continuing his career in the semi-professional New South Wales League in Australia with the Pan-Hellenic Soccer Club which is now known as Sidney Olympic.
