Shilton was a regular choice at left back for Hartlepool United for most of 2000-01, only losing his place to Ian Clark in the closing weeks of the campaign. A left-sided player who is also comfortable in midfield he scored five valuable goals for Pool during the season. He was surprisingly released in the summer and joined Kidderminster Harriers.

The son of the former England keeper Peter Shilton agreed a new one-year deal with the Harriers in May 2003 but his contract was cancelled in January 2004.
