One of Huddersfield Town’s greatest ever strikers, Les Massie, has passed away this week aged 85.
Having played for the Terriers for over 10 years, Les is the club’s fifth highest goalscorer of all time with 108 goals and was voted as one of Town’s 100 greatest players in a ‘fan favourites book.
Born in Aberdeen on 20 July 1935, Les made the move to Huddersfield in the early fifties, joining the Club from Banks O’Dee in August 1953.
His first game in the blue and white stripes came under Andy Beattie in a Division Two away game at Fulham in September 1956,
Les got his first goal for the Terriers just two months later in a 5-0 barnstormer against Barnsley
Under the management of Bill Shankly, Les saw regular starts alongside 16-year-olds Denis Law and Kevin McHale, both talented young players in their own right.
He had his best single-season goalscoring total in 1959/60 when he grabbed 20 league goals in just 40 starts. He played his entire Town career in Division Two, known these days as League One.
By the end of his time at Town in October 1966, Les had netted an 108 goals in 363 appearances.
In his career as a player, he would go on to play for Darlington, Halifax Town, Bradford (Park Avenue), Workington and Drogheda.
In recent years, Les regularly attended games at the John Smith’s Stadium and, according to the club, was always ready to assist the club with interviews and various other matters.
Our thoughts are with his son Neil and his family at this difficult time.

KLTV Legacy: The Determination of youth
In 2014, KLTV attended a Kirkburton Parish event to see a group of young people showcasing what they have done as part of a youth engagement project.
In an enthusiastic and confident display, they talked about their ideas, what they learnt, the challenges they faced and the final outcome of the project.
The project was a platform to make their voices heard and the video shows some of the passionate positive work that can happen in local areas.
