Club career

Sheffield Wednesday

Born in Doncaster, South Yorkshire, McMahon started his career with Sheffield Wednesday.[1] Signed as a trainee, he made his first senior start playing the full ninety minutes in a South Yorkshire Derby against Second Division rivals Barnsley on 13 March 2004 at Hillsborough in front of 25,664 supporters. The results was a 2–1 victory with Guylain Ndumbu-Nsungu grabbing both goals either side of half time. He continued to make eight more starting appearances that season and also make two as a substitute. Next season, McMahon made 17 more appearances and scored his first two senior goals, the first of which was a drive against Blackpool to gain a 2–1 win and the first points of the season. However, McMahon was released by Wednesday at the end of the 2004–05 season.[2]

Notts County

McMahon was signed by Notts County on a one-year deal in July 2005 following his release by Sheffield Wednesday.[2] McMahon left County at the end of the 2005–06 season.[3]

York City

McMahon was signed by York City on 18 August 2006 after he left Notts County.[4] Hewas released by York at the end of the 2006–07 season on 16 May 2007.[5] Following his release, McMahon said: "We did have a good team but, towards the back half of the season, if anyone went to see me playing for the reserves they will have seen me stand out. I was scoring quite a few goals and doing really well. I also lost a stone in weight and did everything the gaffer asked of me so I was a bit gutted not to get a chance to do it in the first team."[6]

Gainsborough Trinity

McMahon joined Conference North side Gainsborough Trinity on 23 July 2007.[7] In February 2012 McMahon joined Matlock Town on an initial one-month loan.[8] He returned to Trinity and was involved in the club's play-off campaign which saw them lose in the final to Nuneaton Town. He was released by Trinity in May 2012.[9]

International career

McMahon was called up to the England C team for their game against Malta in February 2009.[10] He started the match as captain, before being substituted in the 46th minute, as England won 4–0.[11]
