Scott Patrick Hiley (born September 27, 1968 in Plymouth, England) is an English footballer, currently playing for Tiverton Town.

Football career

A defender, mainly at right-back, Hiley first came through the Exeter City youth system in 1986. He was a key part of Exeter's Division 4 winning side of 1989-90, and in 1993 he followed manager Terry Cooper to Birmingham City.

Hiley spent three injury-hit years with Birmingham, and in February 1996 was a surprise loan signing for Premiership side Man City. Two months later the move was made permanent, but he found first-team opportunitites limited and sat in the reserves for two years as City slid down the leagues.

In August 1998 he returned to the Premiership with Southampton (where Terry Cooper was working in a scouting role), and spent 18 months there, before joining rival club Portsmouth in December 1999. He was a popular player at Portsmouth, captaining the side and winning the player of the year award in his first full season, but the team was not successful.

When Harry Redknapp was appointed manager in 2002, he cleared out most of the old squad and built a new team. While Portsmouth won the First Division title, Hiley returned to Exeter in November for his second spell. He was one of the club's better players in the 2002-03 season, but he couldn't stop the side being relegated from the Football League. He remained with Exeter after relegation and, in 2003, joined the coaching staff. He continued to be a first-team regular until October 2005.

When Hiley left the club in February 2006, his contract was terminated by mutual consent, he had spent over 10 years at St James Park his two separate spells with the Grecians and had started almost 400 games for the club.

In August 2006, he was signed by Crawley Town after a successful pre-season trial period. He left the club after a year.

In September 2008, he signed for Tiverton Town after being brought to Ladysmead by manager Martyn Rogers as cover for what was proven, over the 2007 season to be an injury-jinxed right-back spot.
