Career
Born in Wythenshawe, Greater Manchester, Raynes began his career as a trainee at Stockport County. He made his debut in a 2–1 2nd round replay defeat at Swansea City in December 2004, two months after his 17th birthday, and became a regular in the first team during the second half of the 2004-2005 season. By the end of the 2007-2008 season, he had made over 90 league and cup appearances for Stockport.
He signed a new contract in January 2008, keeping him at Stockport until 2010.
He signed a 2 1⁄2-year contract with Scunthorpe United on 1 February 2010, for an undisclosed fee. He joined Rotherham United but was transfer-listed by the club in May 2012, and left by mutual consent later in the same month.
He signed a contract with Oxford United on 11 July 2012. At the end of 2014/2015 season Raynes was released by Mansfield Town after only making a handful of appearances for the club since joining in January 2015.
However, he was not a free agent for long as on 20 May 2015 Raynes was signed by Carlisle United F.C by manager Keith Curle on a one year contract.
Raynes smashed home a brace in a 3-2 home victory against League Two strugglers Yeovil Town in October.
