Who was James Higgins?

James Higgins was an English professional footballer who played in the Football League for Small Heath. Born in Cradley Heath, Staffordshire, Higgins played local football for Stourbridge before joining Small Heath in 1897. A centre forward, he made his debut in the Second Division on 2 April 1898 in a 2–1 win at Luton Town. He kept his place for the remaining five games of the 1897–98 season, and scored three goals, but when the club signed Bob McRoberts he decided his future lay back in non-league football.
