About this person
He was a member of Portsmouth's Football League championship winning sides in the late 1940s. In 1957 he signed for Ipswich for £5,000 by Sir Alf Ramsey and was made captain. He went on to make 148 appearances for the Suffolk club, scoring four times. Born in Bareilly in India, Pickett appeared in 26 games in the 1960/61 campaign in which Ipswich won the Second Division but on only three occasions the following year when Town won the Football League championship for the only time in their history. He then joined Stevenage in June 1963, featuring regularly during the 1963/64 season before leaving the club shortly after the start of the 1964/65 campaign. He died in a nursing home in Rowlands Castle, Hampshire, on 4 November 2012, aged 85. He is the first Indian-origin player to feature in a European continental club competition.
