Bennett never played for Newcastle United in a League game, but like all Newcastle United, Sunderland and Middlesbrough players, he was unable to play for his team as they did not participate in the Tournaments. The Newcastle United Reserve player did make the grade at Elland Road with Leeds City and scored on his debut as a War-time guest. He commanded a reasonably regular spot at Inside Right, missing few games until the arrival of Clem Stephenson and, soon afterwards, Arthur Price, when he became surplus to City’s requirements. It is not thought that he played in the Football League at senior level.
