Has Gary Shaw died?

Looks that way.

The Sun has an article that he's passed away, but can't log into page, not sure if it's true?

Conflicting reports on Twitter.
Wait for an official source would be my suggestion.

Lets hope he hasn't.
Good forward for Villa.

served him many a time WH Witton in his GS shorts

Talk Sport reporter Tom Ross said on X (formerly Twitter), that he had spoken to “someone who would know” and confirmed that Shaw is still fighting for his life. He said: “I have been told that Gary Shaw is still gravely ill in hospital please be respectful to his family who I am sure will update everyone when there is any news.

It ain't over til Wikipedia goes from "is" to "was"

fell off a ladder when he heard a T*ttenham fan claim they'll win the title under Ange

at least he died laughing

More likely laughing at your 'sources' tips mes

Just been confirmed by Aston Villa, how sad he was a cracking young striker at AV, helping them win the League and European Cup with his partnership alongside Peter Withe. His career was cut short by injury and now his life has been cut short following a fall, RIP Gary.

RIP

Just shy of two years older than me; in other words, far too young. Thread only went up yesterday, which shows how quickly things can turn. RIP

sad sad news, cracking footballer.

thoughts go to family and friends

Very sad his life should end this way

RIP

Disgusting post.

I bet Gary Shaw had a sense of humour and would have had a chuckle, unlike the numptys taking offence on his behalf.

saw him score a few on  THE BIG MATCH repeats on a sat morning few months back,from my era and had a mate who got a contract at villa without ever making starting 11 at same time Gary shaw was playing RIP,you've got to be half decent to make Peter withe look half  decent

No, mes, that post was in bad taste

RIP, great young player

I must be the same age as you, Aspro...

.. sad news about Gary Shaw.. I've got a ticket for the match at Villa Park on Saturday so I hope that they have a minutes applause ..

... before Wolves thrash Villa

Many, if not most on here are now in their 60's mecca, except sparrow who's probably awaiting the King's letter... if not already received

Villa Park will most definitely recognise one of their heroes. Enjoy the trip and good luck; it'll be a tough game to conquer.

I want to pay respects to Gary Shaw.
I was a huge fan of that Villa team, Gary was a fine player. Really intelligent, found space when available, could play on the turn and with a great eye for goal.
He would be worth a hundred mil these days, easily.

Seemed to be a top bloke.

I played golf a few times with a mate of his
and he had some lovely tales of Gary.

Sad news, thoughts with friends and family.

One of the True Greats,Top Man

imagine Wayne Rooney for example playing the Gary shaw tight shorts era

My favourite player as a youth.  Think he's the first and youngest player to die from the title winning side.  Shoot did a collection of the top 20 strikers around that time, which I've still got.  Shame his top level career was cut short very early by injury. 

My go to phrase when people get scared because of bad news stories is that "you are more likely to die falling down the stairs"  Don't know if that was the case with Gary, but it is surprisingly common.  Don't wear slippers on the stairs.  They might end up at the top of the stairs with you at the bottom!
