It's not a fighting stance.
You would just get your shield kicked away. Very easily.
It _is_ possible to "trail" the shield angled towards you and use it to keep your opponent at a distance (if he has a short weapon) but eventually he will knock it away.
The shield is your best friend, I cannot see the point of trying to use it this way.
