Scout report
J. Belshaw is a 36-year-old goalkeeper at Notts County, rated 10 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 204th of 213 on scout potential in the League One. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (30.4% of available minutes). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Belshaw.
Judged on this season alone, Belshaw graded 2 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 17th of 23 of the 23 goalkeepers in the League One, on 1 clean sheet across 8 appearances.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 18 → 2). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 10, 21st of 23 of the 23 goalkeepers in the League One. At 36 Belshaw is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.7 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2021/22 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Notts County finished 18th of 24 · a lower-table side
1 clean sheet in 8 appearances (13% of games). Keeping that many behind a lower-table side (18th of 24) — a side that concedes more — points to a busy, productive season between the posts.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 30.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 36, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 10, Belshaw carries the 21st-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the League One of 23 — though on just 8 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. A limited game time keeper carrying the gloves this season. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
