Playing career
Born in Liverpool, Wignall played professionally for Doncaster Rovers, Colchester United, Brentford and Aldershot, making a total of 639 appearances in the Football League. He retired as a player in 1991, barely a year before the club went out of business.
Coaching career
After his retirement from playing he joined the coaching staff at Aldershot, before assisting Ian McDonald. After Aldershot went out of business in 1992, a new club, Aldershot Town was formed, and Wignall became their first ever manager, winning back to back promotions before former club Colchester United signed him in January 1995. During his time at Colchester he led the club to promotion via the play off in 1997/98 and to the final of the Associate Members' Cup the year before. He stayed as manager until January 1999 when he resigned believing he had taken the club as far as he could. Wignall has also managed Stevenage Borough, Doncaster Rovers and Southend United. Also, he worked as a first team coach and assistant at Wivenhoe Town from 2005 before leaving club due to financial reasons in January 2008.
In 2009, Steve published his autobiography titled You Can Have Chips.
