Gary Shaw (born 21 January 1961) was an explosive striker who played for Aston Villa in the early 1980s. His goals helped Aston Villa win the English 1st Division championship in 1980–81 and the European Cup the following year - the only Birmingham-born player in the team. In 1981 he was voted PFA Young Player of the Year. He was also included in the 40-strong, preliminary England World Cup squad for the 1982 finals however he was not picked in the final 22.

His promising Villa career was effectively ended after sustaining a knee injury in an away game at Nottingham Forest - Ian Bowyer tried to help Shaw up even though his ligaments were damaged and though he continued to play for Villa until 1987–88, he wasn't the same player and was sold to Klagenfurt in Austria. He finished his career off at Kilmarnock, Shrewsbury, Walsall and the Hong Kong-based, Ernest Borel FC.
