Mid-1980s youth player Richard Massey made nearly thirty appearances for Exeter City, the majority of which came in the 1987/88 season. He later appeared for Kettering Town. 

Richard worked his way through the youth ranks at Exeter City as an apprentice, being signed as a full professional in July 1986 after already having made his league debut against Northampton Town on 8 April 1986.

Making two league appearances in 1985/86, Richard followed up with another three towards the end of the following campaign. He then featured more regularly during 1987/88 when he made 17 league starts (plus six substitute appearances). 

Having scored once against  Crewe Alexandra at St James’ Park in October 1987, Richard was released in the summer of 1988 and had a spell with Kettering Town before playing for Stourbridge and Halesowen.
