Lindsay continued to make occasional appearances for the reserves, with six appearances (four goals) in 1961–62 and three the following year, before disappearing from the league scene, although Southampton retained his Football League registration until 1965. Being an amateur, Lindsay was able to continue to play for Kingstonians, before returning to Wealdstone in 1962.

He was ever-present in all competitions in 1934–35, and scored 13 league goals as Darlington finished fifth in the table. The first of the 13 secured a draw against Doncaster Rovers and the second a week later was the only goal of the local derby away to Hartlepools United, which the Yorkshire Post thought "fluky": the goalkeeper placed himself to cover Jerry Best's shot, "but the ball cannoned off a defender to Edgar, who had only to touch the ball through an untenanted goal." He had a run of eight goals in nine matches in December and January, and his 86th-minute winner against Carlisle United in the last match of the season ensured Darlington finished in fifth place, ahead of Tranmere Rovers on goal average. Edgar continued in the side for the first eight matches of the 1935–36 season, but when the arrival of Gordon Reed displaced Best from the centre-forward position, new manager George Brown moved Best to outside left and Edgar appeared only twice more for the first team.
