Albert R. Spencer was an English footballer who played for Port Vale, Wolverhampton Wanderers, and Willenhall in the 1920s.

Playing career[]

Spencer joined Port Vale as an amateur in October 1922.[1] After making his debut on New Year's Day 1923, in a 3–1 defeat at South Shields, he signed professional forms the next month.[1] He played just another two Second Division games in the 1922–23 season, before he was transferred to Wolverhampton Wanderers in June 1923.[1] He then returned to Vale five months later.[1] His second spell at The Old Recreation Ground was just as uneventful and he was released after playing just one game in the 1923–24 season. He moved on to Willenhall.[1]
