Bernard L. Shaw was an English footballer who played for Sheffield United as a forward.[1] Born 'locally' Shaw was an amateur player who guested for both The Wednesday and Sheffield United on occasions as allowed by FA rules at the time.[1] Although more often used in friendly fixtures he did represent United in both the FA Cup and the Midland Counties League.[1]

Work took Shaw to London in 1891 after which he made occasional guest appearances for Woolwich Arsenal over the following two seasons.[1]
