David Bayliss (born 8 June 1976 in Liverpool, England) is a football manager, currently joint-manager of Barrow in the Conference National with Darren Sheridan. He previously played in defence.
Bayliss joined Rochdale and progressed through the ranks, making his Football League debut in the 1994–95 season.
He went on to make 186 league appearances for them, scoring nine times, before joining Luton Town during 2001–02.
He spent four seasons at Kenilworth Road, making 37 league appearances and also had nine games on loan to Chester City before being released in the summer of 2005.
He spent the next season with Wrexham making 22 league league appearances and he also had a four game loan spell back at Rochdale.
In the summer of 2006, he joined Lancaster City but then left at the start of November to join Barrow. He has since become joint-manager of Barrow. Along with Darren Sheridan he oversaw a major turnaround in Barrow's season. The Cumbrian's were 19th in the Conference North when Bayliss and Sheridan took over before an excellent second half to the season saw them finish 5th and qualify for the end of season play-offs. A 4–0 aggregate win over Telford United in the semi finals was followed by a 1–0 win against Stalybridge Celtic in the final at Burton Albion's Pirelli Stadium and thus a place in the Conference National for the 2008–09 season. Bayliss and Sheridan succefully kept Barrow in the Conference National the following season, finishing twentieth.
With Sheridan he led Barrow to Wembley and the 2010 FA Trophy final where they played Conference National champions Stevenage Borough, who they defeated 2-1 after extra time to lift the trophy. Bayliss remained registered as a player until the end of the 2010-2011 season, though his appearances were largely restricted to low-profile cup matches or filling up the substitutes bench. As of the 2011-2012 season, he is no longer registered as a player, although Sheridan continues to play.
