Alfred Bennett (13 November 1898 – 6 January 1963) was an English footballer who played as a goalkeeper for Nottingham Forest and Port Vale.

Career

Bennett played for Clowne Rising Star and Nottingham Forest, before joining Port Vale in May 1927. Preferred to George Holdcroft and Howard Matthews, he played 24 Second Division appearances and played one FA Cup game in the 1927–28 season. However, he was replaced by new signing Jack Prince, and after playing just 11 times in the 1928–29 season, he left The Old Recreation Ground on a free transfer in May 1929.

Later life

Bennett later worked as a greengrocer in Ripley, Derbyshire, for 30 years. He collapsed and died while shoveling snow for a fellow shopkeeper in January 1963, aged 64. He was remembered as a charitable and popular figure in the community.
