Career
editShields made his debut for Orient on 5 May 2007 in the Football League One clash with Huddersfield Town which ended in a 3–1 defeat for Orient. On 3 February 2009, he joined St Albans City on loan for two months, having not made a first team appearance for Orient so far in the 2008–09 season, and was released by Orient on 4 May 2009.
During the summer of 2009 Shields spent two weeks on trial at Hayes & Yeading in an unsuccessful attempt to join the Conference Premier club, before re-signing with St Albans, this time on a permanent basis. After a successful start with his new club, Shields suffered an achilles tendon injury in late February 2010 whilst playing with friends,[1] and spent months out of action.
In October 2010, Shields signed for Waltham Forest on a short-term deal.[2]
Soon after he again joined St. Albans City, implementing himself into their new look side as starter in central midfield, partnering David Ijaha. Shields returned to first-team action with the saints in November 2010.[3]
