We are delighted to confirm the permanent signing of forward Bailey Adamson ahead of the 2025-26 season, subject to NPL and FA approval.

Bailey returns to The Stan having previously joined on loan from Hebburn Town back in the January of the 2024-25 campaign. The teenager spent his youth career at Lincoln City.

During his loan spell with us he started 10 games and scored twice, including a memorable goal against Newcastle United U21s in the semi-final of the Northumberland Senior Cup.

On his return, Bailey Adamson said,

 “I’m very happy to be back at Heaton Stannington. I enjoyed my time here last time, hopefully I can kick on and score goals.”

Having secured the signing, manager Dean Nicholson shared his thoughts;

 “I’m delighted to get Bailey back in. He was excellent for us and helped us so much in reaching our objectives I’m sure the Stan Army will be buzzing with this one!”

Make sure you’re on the terraces to welcome Bailey back to The Willow Park – get your match tickets now!
