John Sealey (born December 27, 1945, Wallasey) was an English professional footballer who played as a winger in The Football League for Liverpool and Chester.
[edit] Playing Career
Sealey began his career playing as an amateur for non-league side Warrington Town, before he moved to Liverpool in 1962 [1]. His solitary appearance came in Liverpool’s final game of the 1964–65 season. He scored in Liverpool’s 3–1 win at Wolverhampton Wanderers in Division One but was not selected again [2].
In June 1966, Sealey, John Bennett and Alan Hignett all moved from Liverpool to Chester on free transfers [3]. Sealey made his debut in the second league game of the season, a 3–0 home defeat by Bradford Park Avenue and played in the following two games [4]. Sealey’s only other first-team games for Chester did not arrive until January 1968, when he made substitute appearances in a Welsh Cup tie against Bangor City and a Division Four match at Exeter City [5].
This marked the end of his Chester playing career and he moved to Wigan Athletic [6]. He did not play professional football again.
