He'll be de-registered pronto if he hasn't been already. Just like Weyman will have been.
This makes them both ineligible for selection and therefore no longer part of the salary cap. If Bailey was not de-registered then yes even one appearance would make him count on the cap for the whole season because Rovers would still be able to call on him any time.
Bailey was on less than £100k , Weyman was on more than £100k but together they free up a lot of cap and in the case of Weyman a 'full' quota spot. Finding quality replacements in mid season is the harder part, the Shillington deal depends on his current club being willing to subsidise his wages as was the case with Allgood & Campese.
