Cameron Dale Belford (born 16 October 1988) is an English footballer who plays for Bury as a goalkeeper.
[edit] Career
Born in Nuneaton, Warwickshire, Belford started his career at Coventry City and had a brief loan spell at Conference National side Tamworth during the 2006–07 season playing one game against Morecambe, where Tamworth lost 1–0 - his father Dale was on the substitutes' bench as back up goalkeeper.[2] Belford returned to Coventry soon after the match and was assigned squad number 43, but was released by City in May 2007, without having made a first team appearance.[3]
In August 2007, Belford joined League Two side Bury on a one-year contract.[4] With a lack of first team opportunities at Gigg Lane, Belford joined Conference North team Worcester City on loan for a month on 30 November, becoming one of Richard Dryden's first signings.[5] He made his City debut on 2 December against Barrow at St George's Lane; the game was drawn 1–1.[6] After impressing in the following games his loan spell with Worcester was extended until the end of the season.[7] His impressive form continued for City and he won the club's player of the month award for March.[8] In April 2008, Bury manager Alan Knill offered Belford a contract for the 2008–09 season.[8] and he was recalled from his loan spell at the same time.[8][9] He appeared 22 times for Worcester City.[10] On 3 May 2008, Belford made his debut as a 75th minute substitute against Accrington Stanley at the Crown Ground replacing Jim Provett with Bury winning the game 2–0.[11] In October 2009 Belford impressed many against Rotherham United when he came on after 27 minutes into the first half when first team goalkeeper Wayne Brown came off injured. He made a number of fine saves and denied Ian Sharps from scoring a late equalizer. He kept the score down to 2–1 to Bury.
