Michael Bernard Raynes (born 15 October 1987) is an English professional footballer who plays for Carlisle United F.C as a centre-back.
Career
Born in Wythenshawe, Greater Manchester, Raynes began his career as a trainee at Stockport County.[1] He made his debut in a 2–1 FA Cup 2nd round replay defeat at Swansea City in December 2004, two months after his 17th birthday, and became a regular in the first team during the second half of the 2004–05 season.[2] By the end of the 2007–08 season, he had made over 90 league and cup appearances for Stockport.[3] He signed a new contract in January 2008, keeping him at Stockport until 2010.[4]
He signed a 2 1⁄2-year contract with Scunthorpe United on 1 February 2010, for an undisclosed fee.[5]
He joined Rotherham United but was transfer-listed by the club in May 2012,[6] and left by mutual consent later in the same month.[7]
He signed a contract with Oxford United on 11 July 2012.[8]
At the end of 2014/2015 season Raynes was released by Mansfield Town after only making a handful of appearances for the club since joining in January 2015.[9] However, he was not a free agent for long as on 20 May 2015 Raynes was signed by Carlisle United F.C by manager Keith Curle on a one year contract.[10] Raynes smashed home a brace in a 3–2 home victory against League Two strugglers Yeovil Town in October.
