In 1889, Cassidy joined Bolton where he remained (with short spells with Carfin Shamrock and Celtic) for 9 seasons, making 219 appearances, scoring 101 goals.
In an FA Cup tie against Sheffield United on 1 February 1890, Cassidy scored 5 goals in a 13–0 rout, with a further 4 goals coming from Davie Weir.
Cassidy also scored Bolton's consolation goal in the 1894 FA Cup Final – Bolton were 4-0 down to Notts County when, with three minutes to play, County's goalkeeper George Toone came out to meet a Bolton attack only to slip while attempting to clear and leave Cassidy with one of the easiest cup final goals of all time.
