City in January 2000. He made his Football Conference debut for the club in the 2–0 defeat at Altrincham on 3 January 2000 scoring his first goal for the club in the 3–1 victory at Welling United on 8 January 2000. Lincoln City In October 2001, Bailey joined Lincoln City signing a contract that would keep him at Sincil Bank until the summer of 2004. Macclesfield Town In June 2004, Macclesfield Town's manager Brian Horton announced that the club had agreed terms to sign Bailey with Bailey signing a one-year contract with the club following the end of his contract with Lincoln City. He debuted for the club in the 3–1 victory at Leyton Orient on 7 August 2004 and was an ever-present member of the side until he sustained a peroneal tendon tear in the 1–1 home draw with Cambridge United on 19 October 2004. The injury would keep Bailey out of action until the 2–0 away defeat to Swansea City on 25 March 2005 but after that he remained in the first team picture for the remainder of the season as Macclesfield reached the play-offs, losing out to his former club Lincoln City in the semi-finals. He agreed a new one-year contract for the 2005–06 season but a series of injuries, particularly to his achilles, restricted his appearances and in April 2006 he left the club by mutual consent. Peterborough United and Stafford Rangers In August 2006 he joined up with Keith Alexander for a third time, signing a month-to-month contract with Peterborough United. Personal life He is the son of the former Port Vale player Terry Bailey. Career statistics Source: References External links Profile at UpThePosh!
