in the next year's amateur cup, macey turned an even game against leyton with two goals in two minutes, first lobbing the goalkeeper and then converting a cross from the right wing. in the fourth round, macey, "playing exceptionally well", scored kingstonian's first two goals as they eliminated dulwich hamlet 4–2. in contrast, "apart from the half-backs on each side, no one played up to expectations" in the final, against stockton on a hard pitch at champion hill, dulwich, which finished as a 1–1 draw and was further spoilt by a stockton player being knocked unconscious by a kick to the head. the match was replayed at feethams, darlington, a venue more convenient for stockton's players. again, stockton lost a player to injury; right-back thompson broke his leg with his team one goal ahead, and kingstonian went on to win by four goals to one. as team captain, macey was presented with the trophy by sir charles clegg, president of the football association. his team returned to a civic welcome, a band to play them into the town, and more than 20,000 people lining the streets.
