The 28-year-old had been with the Saints since the 2016/17 season after arriving from Nuneaton Borough where he enjoyed a successful spell.

He started his career with Leicester City and on the international transfer deadline day in 2011, he withdrew from the Republic of Ireland under-19 squad in order to move on loan to Bury.

He had his loan extended and made 14 appearances in total before he returned to Ireland to join Bray Wanderers for an undisclosed fee.

He joined Corby Town in August 2014 from Bray and was a member of the Steelmen`s Southern Premier championship-winning side.

He switched to Nuneaton in the summer of 2015 and then onto the Saints.

He has represented the Republic of Ireland both at under-17 and under-19 level.

Manager Craig Elliott told his club`s website: "I am absolutely delighted to sign a player of Shane's quality.

"He is a highly-regarded player within our league, and he has consistently been challenging for promotion with a very strong Brackley team for a number of years.

"I have been trying to sign him for such a long time as he never failed to impress when I watched him play and even this summer, I had to be patient due to the quality of teams trying to sign him.

"Shane's desire to be successful was apparent when I met him, and I am glad he wants to be part of the vision of our club on and off the pitch.

"I am really looking forward to working with him".
