Lincoln City
[edit | edit source]In September 2000, Lincoln City's manager Phil Stant signed Mawson on-loan as cover for his first-choice keeper Alan Marriott.[2] Whilst the loan was extended to a second month,[3] Mawson would remain an unused substitute in each of Lincoln's nine league games during this period before returning to Burnley.

Whilst at Christie Park he was voted Player of the Year by the supporters for the 2002-03 season, when he notably saved two penalties in the semi-final of the Conference playoffs. However the team failed to progress to the final.
Following the liquidation of Halifax Town, Mawson signed a deal with Conference North team Droylsden.
