[3] [4] Shaw was released by Halifax in May 1988 and after a few weeks with Bridlington Town in non-League football signed for Fourth Division York City in October on a trial basis. [2] His debut came in a 1–1 draw at home to Doncaster Rovers on 25 October, making six appearances for the club before being released. [2] He joined Chesterfield in December, where he made 50 league appearances and scored three goals before a serious groin injury forced his retirement from professional football. [1] [2] Shaw returned to non-League football to finish his playing career with Gainsborough Trinity. [2]

Coaching career

After retiring as a player, Shaw organised a football in the community scheme in Lincolnshire.
