David Edwards

David Edwards strikes me as the kind of footballer a club is lucky to have. Born in Shrewsbury, he came up through the academy of his hometown side Shrewsbury Town, built a solid career through Wolverhampton Wanderers and the divisions, and then returned to that same club as assistant head coach. There is something deeply satisfying about a full circle like that. I find loyalty far more compelling than glamour, and Edwards embodies it. He is the sort of steady professional who becomes the institutional memory of a club, the person who teaches the next generation what it really means to play for the badge.
