Keith Hill has finally ended his search for a replacement for Glenn Murray with the capture of Halifax striker Jon Shaw. The Sheffield born 24 year old enjoyed an excellent season in a struggling side last time around bagging 20 goals from 38 starts and adding to his England 'C' caps. His availabilty after the recent demise of The Shaymen alerted a number of clubs but he has chosen to accept Dales offer of a two year contract after the two clubs agreed what will be an undisclosed fee.
