Career
Rochdale
Born in Oldham, Greater Manchester,[2] Gray made his debut for Rochdale on 1 May 2010 in the Football League Two defeat against Burton Albion at Spotland Stadium.[2][3] He played his second game a week later, coming off the bench in a 1–0 away defeat to Barnet.[4] He scored his first goal for the club almost a year later, on 7 May 2011, scoring the winner as his side beat Bournemouth.[5]
On 16 December 2011, he joined Conference North side Hyde on a one-month loan deal.[6][7] He made his debut for the club on 17 December, in a 4–2 win over Vauxhall Motors.[8] He was set to miss his second game for Hyde on 26 December, due to a suspension that had to be served from his sending off for Rochdale's reserve team,[9] but after Hyde had been in negotiations with the Football Association, it was over-turned in time for him to play in Hyde's derby fixture with Stalybridge Celtic on Boxing Day.[10] Gray would serve the suspension upon his return to Rochdale.[10] On 1 January 2012, in the return fixture at Stalybridge, he scored his first goal for the club, scoring the opener as Hyde came out as 3–1 winners.[11] He played five games scoring the one goal in his time with Hyde,[12] before returning to Rochdale on 16 January 2012, after his month's loan deal had expired.[13]
After returning to Rochdale, Gray made two appearances towards the back end of the 2011–12 season. His first coming in a 2–1 defeat to Milton Keynes Dons on 28 April 2012.[14] He scored his first Rochdale goal of the season in a 2–1 defeat to Leyton Orient on 5 May.[15] He was given the number 10 shirt by Rochdale during pre-season building up to the 2012–13 season, but in August 2012 he suffered a dislocated ankle, a fractured tibula and a snapped medial ligament in behind-closed-doors fixture with Liverpool, forcing the game to be abandoned and ruling Gray out for about 6 months.[16] He made his comeback from the injury on 20 April 2013, in a 3–0 defeat to Oxford United.[17]
On 3 October 2013, he re-joined Hyde on a one-month loan deal.[18] He made his second debut for the club two days later starting in a 3–0 defeat to Braintree Town at Ewen Fields.[19] He scored his first and only goal on the loan spell on 16 November, scoring in a 3–2 defeat away to Woking.[20] On 28 November 2013, Gray signed for Conference Premier side Halifax Town on a loan deal until January 2014.[21] He made his debut for the club on 7 December, receiving a red card in a 4–3 defeat to Woking at The Shay.[22] He scored his first goal for Halifax on 28 December in a 5–1 win over Lincoln City.[23]
On 7 May 2014, Gray was released by Rochdale after their promotion to League One.[24]
