Goalkeeper Harry Wheeler Nickson's career with Liverpool was unusual in that he only appeared in FA Cup matches for the club - three of them to be precise.

<p>He was one of a high number of players - 38 - who represented the Reds during that 1945-46 season, although these games were played in the Football League (North) amid the Second World War and are not usually included in official records as most clubs had numerous guest players making appearances for them during those seasons.</p><p>In the cup, Nickson played in both legs against Chester and in the second leg against Bolton Wanderers, which Liverpool won 2-0. But as they had already lost the first match by five goals, it was the team from Burnden Park that progressed into the next round.</p><p>Nickson played 10 times in goal for the club in those 'unofficial' league matches, but the 5-0 home defeat by Manchester United on February 16, 1946 was perhaps unsurprisingly his last.</p>
