Kallum Michael Higginbotham (born 15 June 1989) is an English footballer who used to play as a winger for Scottish League Two club Bonnyrigg Rose.[2]
Higginbotham started his football career as a youth player at Salford City and then in Oldham Athletic's reserve squad. Having failed to break into the first team at Boundary Park, Higginbotham joined League One side Rochdale in 2007. He was later loaned to Accrington Stanley, having fallen out of favour. He joined Scottish First Division side Falkirk in June 2010, where he enjoyed two successful seasons with the club. Higginbotham left Falkirk in 2012 and joined Huddersfield Town, where he spent the majority of his time on loan at Barnsley, Carlisle and Motherwell. Higginbotham failed to establish himself at Huddersfield and subsequently joined newly promoted Scottish Premiership side Partick Thistle in 2013. After spending a season with Kilmarnock, Higginbotham moved to newly promoted Scottish Championship side Dunfermline Athletic in 2016 where he spent three seasons. Higginbotham also had three seasons at Kelty Hearts until he left the club to join Tranent. After a year with Trananet he left the lowland league outfit to join Scottish league two side Bonnyrigg Rose Athletic for the forthcoming 2024-25 season.
