Biggs spent three-and-a-half years in the Arsenal Reserve team before finally making his professional debut in 1937. He played three times for Arsenal before moving to Hearts. Here, he scored 12 league goals in 19 appearances when he moved to Aberdeen in 1938. He remained registered with Aberdeen through the war years. He made guest appearances for Luton Town, Watford, Crystal Palace and Ipswich Town, before returning to his home county to play for Bedford Town in 1946. He moved to Southern League rivals Colchester United toward the end of the season, spending six months in Essex before moving back to Luton to play for the Vauxhall Motors works team. CareerBorn in Wootton, Bedfordshire,[1] Biggs joined Arsenal as an amateur in October 1933. He turned professional two months later and spent three-and-a-half years in the reserve side when his efforts in the Football Combination, 41 goals for the season which was then a club record, earned him a call-up to the first-team squad.[2] He made his Arsenal debut on 29 March 1937 in a 0–0 draw with Stoke City.[3] He made two further appearances for Arsenal before making a £2,500 move to Heart of Midlothian in December 1937.[2] Frank Moss brought Biggs to Hearts on 9 December 1937, making his debut two days later. He helped the club to the runners-up spot in his first season with the club and would score 12 goals in 19 games.[1][4] He made a move to Aberdeen early in the 1938–39 season, but his appearances were limited with the outbreak of World War II. He remained registered to Aberdeen during the war years when he returned to Bedfordshire to join Luton Town. Here, he made 19 guest appearances and scored five goals during the 1939–40 season. Biggs also made wartime guest appearances for Watford, Crystal Palace and Ipswich Town,[1] the latter of which he played five games and scored one goal in the Football League South in 1945.[5]After the war, Biggs joined Southern League side Bedford Town during the 1946–47 season while employed at the Vauxhall Motors Luton plant. He joined league rivals Colchester United for the final four games of the season, scoring three goals. He scored a further two goals in ten appearances during the 1947–48 season, but left the club in November 1948. He then returned to play for the Vauxhall Motors works team in Luton, playing in the Spartan League.[1] References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 {{cite book |last1=Whitehead |first1=Jeff |last2=Drury |first2=Kevin |title=The Who's Who of Colchester United: The Layer Road Years |year=2008 |publisher=Breedon Books |location=Derby |isbn=978-1-85983-629-3 |page=29}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Biggs, Arthur}}2. ^1 {{cite web |url=http://www.arsenal.com/history/profiles/51/arthur-biggs |title=Arthur Biggs |last= |first= |date= |publisher=Arsenal FC |accessdate=22 February 2016 }} 3. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.11v11.com/matches/stoke-city-v-arsenal-29-march-1937-68629/ |title=Stoke City v Arsenal, 29 March 1937 |last= |first= |date= |publisher=11v11.com |accessdate=22 February 2016 }} 4. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.londonhearts.com/scores/players/biggsarthur.html |title=Arthur Biggs |last= |first= |date= |publisher=Londonhearts.com |accessdate=22 February 2016 }} 5. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.prideofanglia.com/page.php?page=playerAppearanceRecord&fullname=Arthur%20Biggs&season=1945-46 |title=Games played by Arthur Biggs in 1945–46 |last= |first= |date= |publisher=Pride of Anglia – Ipswich Town Football Club |accessdate=3 March 2016 }} 17 : 1915 births|1996 deaths|Sportspeople from Bedford|Association football forwards|English footballers|Arsenal F.C. players|Heart of Midlothian F.C. players|Aberdeen F.C. players|Luton Town F.C. wartime guest players|Watford F.C. wartime guest players|Crystal Palace F.C. wartime guest players|Ipswich Town F.C. wartime guest players|Bedford Town F.C. players|Colchester United F.C. players|English Football League players|Scottish Football League players|Southern Football League players |
