Steve O'Shaughnessy (footballer)

Stephen O'Shaughnessy (born 13 October 1967[3]) is a Welsh former professional footballer who was most recently manager of Airbus UK Broughton.

O'Shaughnessy or "Shaughssa" as he is affectionately known was born in Wrexham[3] and started his career as an apprentice at Leeds United, before moving onto Bradford City, where he made one league appearance.

In three seasons at Spotland, O'Shaughnessy enjoyed arguably the most successful spell in his career scoring 16 goals in 109 League appearances[3] and reaching the 5th Round of the 1990 FA Cup .

After a disappointing three-game spell at St James Park[3] under 1966 FIFA World Cup winner Alan Ball, which saw him sent off at Huddersfield Town, O'Shaughnessy joined Darlington in January 1992.

[4] After this, Steve went to a roundabout of clubs, including Stalybridge Celtic and Buler Rangers in Hong Kong, before returning to play in the League of Wales.
