As a result of the loan deal Bury made Huddersfield an offer of £200,000 for the midfielder. The move looked a done deal until Huddersfield recalled Baldry back to the club and marked the player as "not for sale" on his return. It is thought that Bury were asking for a price-cut on Baldry, under-valuing the player and causing the move to come to a permanent halt out of disagreement. Baldry then became largely involved in Huddersfield Town's "Great Escape" campaign and would later go on to score the goal that saved the club from relegation.
