Playing career

Henderson joined Leeds United as a schoolboy in 1959 but returned to Scotland due to being homesick. Manager Don Revie brought him back to Leeds in November 1962 and he made 20 league appearances in the 1962–63 season. His place in the first team was taken by Johnny Giles in the following season and he made just four more appearances for Leeds before joining Bury in June 1965.
