Career


Parsons was born in Stoke-upon-Trent and played amateur football with Stafford Rangers before joining Stoke in 1887.[1] He was used as back up to Joe Murphy but he played in all of Stoke's matches in the FA Cup in 1898–99 as the team reached the semi-final before being beaten 3–1 by Derby County.[1]

Murphy joined Woolwich Arsenal and Parsons took his place for the 1899–1900 and missed just two matches.[1] But he lost his place to Billy Leech and left Stoke for Featherstone Rangers and then Brighton & Hove Albion.[1]
