James Michael Belshaw (born 12 October 1990) is an English professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for EFL League Two club Harrogate Town.
[7] In 2009, Belshaw rejected a one-year professional contract with Walsall,[8] and instead moved to the United States to play college soccer at Duke University.
[9] Belshaw was offered a contract by Chicago, but as a backup goalkeeper, so instead opted to search for first-team football back in his native England.
[18] On 23 July 2021, Belshaw joined recently relegated fellow League Two side Bristol Rovers for an undisclosed fee on a two-year deal.
[27] Following this three game spell, Balcombe was again selected for a home match against Ipswich Town, in which he kept a first clean sheet for the club, with Belshaw omitted from the first-team squad.
Barton revealed prior to the match that with the team having been released, Belshaw's attitude in training had dropped significantly with a warning that he may never play for the club again unless things were to change.
[4] Belshaw is "good friends" with professional basketball player Mason Plumlee, who plays for NBA side Los Angeles Clippers.
