Career
Nisbet was signed from Salvesen Boys Club in Edinburgh in May 1982. He made his Rangers debut against Motherwell on the 7 December 1985, aged just 17. He scored what was described as a lucky goal against Club Brugge on March 17, 1993 in the 1992-1993 Union of European Football Associations Champions League, when his deflected effort towards goal went over the Brugge goalkeeper Dany Verlinden before going into the Netto.
He had to retire from football in 1993 through injury after initially suffering a groin strain that later developed into a serious pelvic injury.
He made a short comeback aged 38 and played for junior outfit Arniston Rangers. Nisbet made a surprise appearance as a trialist for Clyde in their friendly against Manchester United on Sunday 18 October 2009.
Clyde manager John Brown was unable to sign Nisbet, however, as Arniston Rangers still held his playing registration.
