Shaun Reid (born October 13, 1965 in Huyton) is a former English footballer. He is the younger brother of Peter Reid and played in a similarly hardworking and tough-tackling manner for Rochdale (in two spells), Preston North End, York City, Bury, Chester City (where he also held coaching roles) and Leigh RMI from 1983 to 2000.

[edit] Brotherly Encounters
On-field meetings between Peter and Shaun were confined to pre-season matches, although when Peter was manager of Sunderland they met Shaun's Chester team in the Worthington Cup second round over two legs in September 1998. Shaun had been out through injury for 14 months but returned just in time for the games, which ended in an unsurprising 4-0 aggregate success for Sunderland.

Unusually, all of Shaun's 432 Football League appearances were made in the fourth tier (Division Four, later renamed Division Three and now known as League Two). He did not make any more appearances for Bury after they were promoted from Division Three in 1995-96. His debut had been a 1-0 win for Rochdale at Crewe Alexandra in January 1984.
Reid's final Football League appearance was as a late substitute for Chester in a 5-0 win over Mansfield Town on March 25, 2000, just six weeks before Chester themselves fell out of the league. His only subsequent outing at a notable level was again as a substitute for Leigh RMI in a 2-0 Nationwide Conference win over Scarborough in August 2000. He went on to become a football agent.
