Career

Cowdenbeath

Peter Bradley joined the Central Park side in 2008 and spent a lot of his time in the Cowdenbeath Under 19's squad becoming a regular. He eventually broke into the first team in the 2009/2010 season making seven appearances. He had two loan spells out to junior sides Kirkcaldy YM and Ballingry Rovers.

St. Mirren

The move of Cowdenbeath's manager Danny Lennon to SPL side St. Mirren gave Bradley the opportunity to become the manager's 4th signing of the summer for the Paisley club. Bradley was officially signed as a St. Mirren player on June 26, 2010.[1] Peter failed to break into the St Mirren first team, and was released by the club in April 2011.

Queens Park

Peter signed for Scottish Third Division side, Queen's Park, at the beginning of season 2011–12[2] and played on a regular basis over the next two seasons. Queens Park made the play-offs in each season, but failed to achieve promotion of each occasion.

Annan Athletic

At the start of season 2013–14, Peter moved to Scottish League Two side Annan Athletic.[3] He went on to make 16 league appearances for the club before moving back home at the end of his contract.

Institute

He signed for NIFL Premiership club Institute in January 2015, after his return to Northern Ireland and made his debut in a 5-1 home Irish Cup win against NIFL Championship club Loughgall. His league debut came on 23 January versus Glenavon, in a game which ended 2-1 in the home sides' favour at Mourneview Park.
