A regular in the Derby County reserve side on the right-hand side of defence in 2000-01, Richard received his first start in the Premiership at Everton in August.
His opportunities were limited after that as manager Jim Smith preferred to opt for more experienced players, and a broken cheek-bone sustained in a training ground accident in early January then ruled him out of action for the reserves until early April.
He returned to the senior squad for the final game of the season against Ipswich Town when he came on for Chris Riggott at half-time.
Richard's contract at Derby County was extended to June 2008 in January 2006.
He joined Luton Town in August 2007 with a two-year contract but was made available for transfer in May 2008.
Richard joined Hereford United in September 2008 with a one-year contract.
He joined Burton Albion in December 2009 on a monthly contract that was extended to June 2011 in January 2010.
