His legs went when he was still playing for us. We were lucky to get the money we did from Boro.
His legs certainly did go when playing for us - that must have been why he constantly fell to the floor as if he had been shot whenever he was tackled.
I think it's safe to say that we probably got the best deal out of him. We almost doubled what we paid for him when we sold him and he scored 25 goals for us in two years playing in most of our games.
However, He never did anything to give the impression that he was ever interested in anything less than the maximum wage on offer and he 'engineered' moves to ensure that he got what he wanted.
I doubt he will be missed by any of the clubs he played for, and I also suspect that none of the fans that sang his name when he was with them would bother to cross the road to say hello to him now. I would say that it's a shame but, realistically, I doubt he cares. He earned a lot of money and, even though I suspect he wasn't intelligent enough to have any left, that was what he wanted.
A tad harsh KHA...Bailey always gave 100% for us and he helped to take Millwall down! I would certainly chat with him in a pub and ask him about the difference between Boro and us - what it was like living up there and how awful, assuming it was pretty bad, at the scum. I think he has a good story to tell. A fine workman-like Championship player in my opinion.

Bailey is tarnished by the missed pen. He was largely decent for us

What is any of this actually based on? I've seen quite a few people say things like this about him, but they also seem to forget that the guy was on the floor in tears when he missed that penalty.
Never played like someone who was 'only in it for the money'.
Scored some goals for us but in my opinion gave the ball away way too much, we made a profit on him though so certainly one of Pardew's better signings.

One of those players, like that mid-fielder who's name I can't remember who we got from Birmingham, who was dangerous in the opposition's area but almost as dangerous in his own.

Interesting when you look at their squad as they've also got Ross Worner and Stuart Fleetwood in their team now
