He had to wait for selection until another match against Celtic in the Scottish Premier League three months later, but Hibs were beaten 4–0 and Baillie himself was sent-off.

[2] Baillie made just two appearances in Tony Mowbray's time as manager and wasn't picked after a 4–4 home draw against Dundee in September 2004.

[5] After being forced to retire due to a back injury for a second time in 2012, Baillie was appointed Assistant Manager under Steph McMillan at Whitletts Victoria, and he eventually left the Vics to re-join Troon FC and resume his playing career.

Under Junior football legend John Redmond, Baillie was appointed as part of the backroom team at Craigmark alongside Ian "Spank" Patterson, and the trio set about the rebuild of the once great mining club.

A strong start, based around a young & talented squad, concluded in a mid-table finish which marked a major improvement in standings.
