Oli Shaw

Career
Shaw gained his pro contract at Scottish side Hibernian in the 15/16 but didn't make a first team appearance. He loaned out to Scottish 4 tier team Stenhousemuir where he scored 7 in 24 games. When he returned, Hibernian were impressed and he managed to make 16 appearances for The Hibs, scoring 5 goals in the process. The 18/19 season came and he again played well, scoring 6 in 26 games. The next 5 seasons he stayed at Hibs, playing 30 times but still managing to get one the score sheet with netting 8 times. He was released by Hibernian at the end of the 23/24 season and Gateshead signed him as their number one striker for the year. That he did, breaking the clubs goal scoring record in a season with 34 goals in 46. He stunned the Gateshead supporters gaining the League One top scorer award.The next season came and with new striker options coming in, it was looking iffy that Shaw would be the number one. Ireland stuck by him through loyality for the first few games but with only one goal in these games there was no choice but to drop him for the new Italian youngster, Antonio Lodi who proved his worth and took Oli's place. Shaw played 14 games in the first half of the 25/26 season for Gateshead and with only goal to his name he was looking for a move. Shaw respected Ireland for giving him a chance but it wasnt meant to be and a £130,000 offer from title hopefuls Ipswich Town came and it was accepted. He left the club with 35 goals to his name and quickly found his scoring form at the eventual league champions (11 goals in 17).
