In May 1906, he moved to First Division high flyers Newcastle United, together with his Southampton team-mate, Harry Brown. He made his Football League debut against Everton in September 1906, but Soye was unable to break into the first-team on a regular basis at St James’ Park, with Scotland international James Howie well settled in the inside-right berth. Although Newcastle won the League Championship in the 1905-06 season, Soye made only his debut appearance, followed the next season by 6 further appearances, scoring twice. He spent the entire 1909-09 season in the reserves and, after only seven first-team appearances in three years, he returned to Scotland in May 1909, when he was part of the deal which brought Wilf Low to St James’ Park for a fee of £800 from Aberdeen.
At Pittodrie, Soye made his debut scoring in a 3-0 defeat of Port Glasgow Athletic and soon became an established member of the team, settling into the right-wing position. Over the next six seasons, Soye made 201 League and Cup appearances for The Dons, scoring 26 goals, and also represented The Scottish Football League against the Southern League in a 3-2 victory at Shawfield on 2nd October 1911.
He returned to Distillery in 1915 and played for Glenavon in 1917-18 before playing non league football in Scotland after the end of the First World War.
