He played for his local side Fowey Town before moving to (then) Southern League Torquay United in August 1923. He left Plainmoor in 1924 to join Aston Villa for a fee of £200, scoring twice in 10 league games. Percy subsequently moved to Queens Park Rangers in 1926 (4 goals in 16 league games), before joining Norwich City in 1927. He quickly became a hero at Carrow Road scoring 32 times in his first season, including 10 goals in his first 7 league games. He netted on his debut for Norwich in a 4-1 win over Crystal Palace. In February 1930, after 37 goals in just 57 league games for Norwich (and 47 in 65 overall), he moved to Exeter City where he scored 41 League goals in 81 appearances.
