Life and career
Shufflebotham was born in Macclesfield, Cheshire.[1] He played for Hanley Town and Loughborough Corinthians, and was on the books of Aston Villa without appearing for the first team,[2] before making his debut in the First Division of the Football League for Notts County during the 1904–05 season.[1] After a spell with Old Hill Shufflebotham returned to the First Division, playing one game for Birmingham in 1906 before moving on to Oldham Athletic, newly elected to the Second Division.[3] He played seven league games for Oldham,[1] but was allowed to leave for Southern League club Portsmouth in 1909. Oldham retained his Football League registration, and two years later they sold him to Southport Central for a fee of £150. He retired from football in October 1914.[4]
Shufflebotham worked as a timber merchant's agent in the Birmingham area both before and after the First World War.[4] He died in Weston-super-Mare, Somerset, in 1951 at the age of 66.[5][6]
