He made his club, and Football League debut on 18 September 2010 in Tranmere's 1–1 draw against Charlton Athletic, coming on as a second half substitute.[3] On 28 September 2010 he scored his first goal for the club in a 1–0 win against Bristol Rovers in his third senior match for the club.[4] Jennings followed this up a few games later with a brace and two assists in the 4-2 victory over Milton Keynes Dons. On 13 November, Jennings scored a winner against Plymouth Argyle with a twisting run from the halfway line.[5]
