Playing career

Stenson played for Everton before joining Third Division side Port Vale in March 1978 for a £3,000 fee.[1] The club were relegated that season under the stewardship of Bobby Smith.[1] Stenon was instead handed his debut by new manager Dennis Butler came on 12 August, in a League Cup First Round 3–0 defeat to Chester at Vale Park.[1] Despite the scoreline, Stenson made a big impression and started the next eight matches.[1] His performances waned however and after September he was only ever a back-up player.[1] He played 11 Fourth Division and two League Cup games in the 1978–79 season, and featured in just one league game in the 1979–80 campaign.[1] After having his contract cancelled by new boss Alan Bloor by 'mutual agreement' in October 1979, he moved on to Morecambe (Northern Premier League) and then Prescot Cables.[1]

gollark: It's just that stuff like "thought isnt action. so things that started as thought are just concepts in action, the action is still the same action as all other actions, push and pull." and "every action has an equal and opposite reaction" don't seem like... semantically meaningful sentences. I mean, they're... valid sentences, but don't look like they're actually conveying any true useful information.
