Dick Edmed was a winger who arrived at Liverpool in the summer of 1926 and went straight in to the team, missing only four of the 42 First Division games in his debut season.
He was one of two ever-presents, the other being Tom Bromilow, and the following year he netted 14 times, a high total for a winger – although he had also taken on the role of the club's penalty taker by this time.
Edmed only missed three league games in 1928-29 and added a further 16 goals, a very impressive total considering that Robert Done was now taking the spot-kicks.
Although he figured in two-thirds of the club's league fixtures in 1929-30, a cartilage injury curtailed Edmed's availability for the Reds and he was no longer sure of his place by the end of that season.
He made just 12 appearances the next year before being replaced by Harold Barton, and subsequently moved to Bolton Wanderers, but his injury problems forced him to retire.
