John Martin Biography

John Martin is one of the most popular and richest Association Football Player who was born on December 24, 1979 in Dublin, Dublin, Ireland. John Martin (born 24 December 1979) is an Irish football coach and former player.

He signed for Shamrock Rovers in July 2007 and made his debut in a 2–0 victory against Waterford United. Persistent hip and groin injuries saw his performances curtailed for the remainder of the 2007 although he did play a starring role in a 2–0 win against local rivals Bohemians which saw Rovers climb to 2nd in the table. Rovers challenge eventually faded away after a successful return to the Premier League of Ireland under Pat Scully. Numerous injury concerns in 2008 resulted in serious hip surgery in May 2008. Despite being ruled out for the remainder of the season he managed to return for the final 8 games of the season. He claimed his first goal for Rovers against St Patrick’s Athletic courtesy of a big deflection from Damian Lynch. A recurrence of the injury in training in November 2008 resulted in additional hip surgery in January 2009 and his retirement on medical grounds.

He signed for Longford Town for the 2004 season. He scored on his 2nd appearance for Longford Town against Shamrock Rovers, scoring with a 25-yard volley moments after coming on to equalise for 10-man Town in a 1–1 draw. The following month he scored 2 goals for Longford in a 4–0 win against local rivals Athlone Town in a league cup tie in St Mels Park. After suffering from a severe bout of tonsillitis he spent numerous weeks out of the team but did return for a league cup semi final win against Finn Harps that Longford won 2–1 thanks to goals from Sean Francis and Dessie Baker. He won his first trophy for Longford after a 2–1 league cup final win against Bohemians in Flancare Park. He scored the first goal in the 2–1 FAI Cup semi final victory against Drogheda United in October 2004 with the winner coming from Seán Dillon in the last minute of extra time. He won his 2nd trophy for Longford in 2004 after another 2–1 victory against Waterford United in the FAI Cup final at Lansdowne Road. He scored twice to relegate Dublin City from the Premier League in the final weeks of the 2004 season. He only missed 3 games in the 2005 season, all through suspension, as Longford failed to hit the heights of 2004 but he did manage to hit winning goals against Waterford and former club UCD as Longford finished the season strongly. A fractured ankle suffered away to Waterford United disrupted most of the 2006 season although he did return from injury to score another goal against Waterford United in the FAI Cup. The loss of several of the FAI cup winning squad saw Town struggle in the 2007 as did a 6-point deduction for licensing issues and Martin left the club in the summer transfer window to sign for Shamrock Rovers in exchange for Jamie Duffy and Ian Ryan. He was previously sent off against Shamrock Rovers when Longford played them earlier in the 2007 season.
