Jay Shields
Jay Shields (born 6 July 1985 in Edinburgh) is a Scottish footballer, currently playing for Cowdenbeath.
A tough battler and a competent defender, Shields made his Hibernian debut in 2004. He was loaned out to Berwick Rangers in the first half of the 2005-06 season for first-team experience. After returning to a Hibs squad ravaged with injuries later in the 2005-06 season, Shields made seven starts in the right-back position. After impressing the fans and manager, he was given a new one-year deal at Hibs.
With other players returning to fitness, however, he has since struggled to gain a place in the Hibs team during the 2006-07 season. He was loaned to Dundee in December 2006.
He joined Greenock Morton in August 2007[1]. He then joined Cowdenbeath in January 2008.
