Massey moved to The Wednesday in 1893 where he played in the Football League until 1901. After taking the place of Bill Allan as the Owls regular goalkeeper, one of the highlights of his career was the victory in the 1896 FA Cup Final where Wednesday beat Wolverhampton Wanderers 2−1 at Crystal Palace. In 1902 he returned to his original club Denaby United as an amateur whilst working at the local pit, he noted to the media at the time of joining Denaby that he had not played football for over two years. He continued playing for local clubs, including South Kirkby Colliery, until he lost an eye in a mining accident. His grandson Roy Massey played League football as a centre forward for several clubs in the 1960s. (en)
